Do not give way to useless alarm; though it is right to be prepared for the worst, there is no occasion to look on it as certain.
Whenever things are good, I always worry about what could go wrong.
It seems wisest to assume the worst from the beginning...and let anything better come as a surprise.
there's no harm in hoping for the best as long as you're prepared for the worst.
It kind of makes me wish that the worst thing that will ever happen to me would just hurry up and happen already. That way I could live the rest of my life in bliss, if only because I know how much worse things could be.
Don't you know that the very thing a man dreads is the thing that always happens?
I am always the type of person who is waiting for the other shoe to drop and for it to peter out and end. And if it does that's fine.
