Sadly, I can't attribute that quote to myself. It's from the late Frank Herbert's book Dune.
I feel the same way, darkangel.

What I'm most afraid is of losing my intellect.
It kinda sounds too stuck up (or however it's said), but they've always told me how smart am I, and I just can't imagine why would anyone like me if I was not smart.

It's a beautiful quote. Very Deep... *copies it down*
I've always been scared that my insecurities about relationships will scare away that "special one." Ya know... I ask questions, tend to go to quickly so we can get to that "happily ever after" Ending...
Cut out the "happily ever after and you get the Ending of my relationships... I must say that I am scared of them... I fear for my mind, body and soul when I am in one, as this love feeling tends to overtake it all and sweep me into a world of castles and fairytale endings... oh how I wish and dare to dream.
My Habits...
My habit is not a physical one but a mental one... I was the fat kid in elementary and haven't really come to terms with the way I was and the way I am now... Insecurity is a habit... it's an addicting habit... disgusting really.
When my hair is down, I tend to put it behind my ears... I don't know why... perhaps to show off my face. I don't know...
I still hug my pillow at night as if it was the only floating piece of furniture in the ocean of my room.
I still take vitamins...
I still procratinate...

That's wonderful. If you haven't noticed this is a entire forum devoted to new members such as your self. It's called Introductions.
You might want to go there and introduce yourself properly.

I have a habit of playing and poking my facial piercings.
I have a habit of hiding under the bed when my parents invite idiots over.
I have a habit of talking to strangers.
I am a bit of a kleptomaniac.

Eyes, I totally have all the same stuff about dark rooms, sleeping, and stuffed animals.. but I still have my purple bunny named peter ^^
My big thing is dolls... I was at my aunt's house last summer, and my little cousins had left a babydoll on top of my suitcase.... I was so afraid that I had to get my mom to take it off so I could put on my jammies 0.0
*edit*
Oh! And I also sit under my desk or make wierd noises if a get bored at school.

Oooo....that reminds me Jane.....my mom collects (or used to) porcelien dolls for my sister and I. She had tons of them in our rooms. Now that wasn't even really the bad part.
One year my mom gave her a clown doll. Now this thing was downright demonic looking. It was bald with purple triangles painted on its head and the ugliest looking grin on it's face. Well one night my uncle decided to play a prank on me. I was at their apartment watching of all movies "Child's Play" in their room when my uncle comes up behind me, puts the dolls little arm on my shoulder and says in a deep scary voice, "I'm coming to get you Nicky."
I screamed and ran into the living room to where my parents where and began to cry. I think that's why I started to fear my dolls.

Ok, maybe it's a little too late to for Eternal Silence to read this, but it's still a wonderful lesson to everyone:
Only idiots fear nothing. No fear shows a person is too stupid to know there are things far worse than death, which deserve our fear.
It's great if you have no pathological fears, but having no fear at all is a statement devoid of reason.
I myself would fear my enemies. But seeing as I have none, I yearn for one.

Sort of like the:'Only thing to fear,is fear itself'?
And I agree that dolls can be downright spooky sometimes,has anyone heard of "Robert the Doll" from Key West,Florida?
This story has freaked me out for ages now-more information can be found Here

Someone who lives life without fear is less worthy of praise than someone who has many fears yet chooses to confront them. Perhaps it would be a good idea for you to be a bit more like your name.
It wasn't me, TStone. I'd show much more artistry in my trolling than that maggot.

It's just like a man with a million questions is much more interesting than a man with a million answers

True. I just wanted to show both extremes, so I neglected to mention the cream-filled middle that you discussed.

I'm not sure why, but reading what you just said made me crave a Twinkie so much

Yay! Cute people posting about creamy centres!

You know, I think if every person in the world had a Twinkie in one hand, all the problems of the world would be solved

Dammit. I've never even had a proper Twinkie and I'm hungry for one.
If everyone had a Twinkie in their hands, they'd be unable to drive and speak on cell-phones at the same time.... or do any "one handed typing" without substantial difficulty and/or creativity. Do you really want to do that to us?

Twinkies are good, but Zebra Cakes are better!
I'm afraid of many things, but I think the worst one is fearing that I won't be strong enough.
I'm not the nervous type, though... I think the only thing that could cause me to panic would be heights. I'm terribly acrophobic. It's more than just a fear; I get disoriented and can't tell up from down. It's terrifying. I believe I have inherited my mother's vertigo.

People can't that anyway (not successfully).
There's no limit on what people will try to do while driving, though - drink coffee, put on makeup, flip through the radio stations, smoke a cigarette, talk on the phone... all at the same time, and all while attempting to drive. Now THAT is something to fear!

Well, it would be cool, wouldn't it? 
Look at how awesome a conversation with a complete stranger with a Twinkie in his had would be:
-hi stranger
-hi stranger
-hey, you have a Twinkie in your hand like me
-doesn't everyone
*chuckles*
-hey, do you talk by cell phone?
-and stop holding my Twinkie? Hell no!
-so what do you think about the war in Iraq?
-it should be stopped, not only are there innocent people being killed, but they're innocent people with Twinkies
now a terrorist conversation:
-what building should we bomb this time?
-are you kidding? and destroy all those Twinkies??
now a crazy guy in the streets:
-Believe in the Twinkie!!!
See? Twinkies are the answer!
Hail the Twinkie
