  Titus Lucretius Carus, William Henry Denham Rouse, Martin Ferguson Smith (1975). “De rerum natura”, Harvard University Press ; London : Heinemann

• For as children tremble and fear everything in the blind darkness, so we in the light sometimes fear what is no more to be feared than the things that children in the dark hold in terror and imagine will come true.

  "On the Nature of Things" by Lucretius, Book II, lines 55 - 61 (tr. Rouse),
