If a person suddenly encounters any terrible danger,
the change of nature one undergoes is equally great.
Sometimes fear numbs our senses. Like animals, one
stands still, powerless to move a step in fright or to lift a
hand in defense of our lives, and sometimes one is seized
with panic, and again, act more like the inferior animals
than rational beings. On the other hand, frequently in
cases of sudden extreme peril, which cannot be escapec
by flight, and must be instantly faced, even the most tim
men at once as if by miracle, become possessed of the
necessary courage, sharp quick apprehension and swift
decision. This is a miracle very common in nature. Man
the inferior animals alike, when confronted with almost

certain death' gather resolution from despair' but there
can really be no trace of so debilitating a feeling in the
person fighting, or prepared to fight for dear life. At such
times the mind is clearer than it has ever been; the nerv
are steel, there is nothing felt but a wonderful strength
and daring. Looking back at certain perilous moments
my own life, I remember them with a kind of joy, not tha
there was any joyful excitement then, but because they
broadened my horizon, lifted me for a time above myseटाइटल
