If then fear is accompanied by the expectation
that we are going to suffer some fatal misfortune, it is evident that none of
those who think that they will suffer nothing at all is afraid either of those
things which he does not think will happen to him, or of those from whom he does
not expect them, or at a time when he does not think them likely to happen. It
therefore needs be that those who think they are likely to suffer anything
should be afraid, either of the persons at whose hands they expect it, or of
certain things, and at certain times.
