Birdcage
Albert:
Oh God, I pierced the toast!
Armand:
So what? The important thing to remember is not to go to pieces when that happens. You have to react like a man, calmly. You have to say to yourself, "Albert, you pierced the toast, so what? It's not the end of your life."

I'm not sure if this quite counts as a literary quote, because it comes from the script of a TV series. But someone wrote it.
"Fear is the destroyer" from Star Trek Picard.
It was in response to a person struggling to cope with the fact that they had been labeled as "the destroyer". And it was a reminder that we are not the problem. But the actions we take as a result of fear. And the more we do to recognise our fears, the more we can challenge them and avoid mistakes.
It was good to be reminded that we are not inherently bad but can change if we chose.

I almost always can go to poetry for a quote that will answer the question I put forth to the universe:
“…I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way
than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.”
- Pablo Neruda, “Love Sonnet XVII”

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”
― Frank Herbert, Dune
Close your eyes and I Close mine too.
Sorry not good at this. I am click away.
