Question

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 escaped by flight, and
must be instantly faced, even the most timid 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 and 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 nerves are steel, there is nothing felt but a wonderful
strength and daring. Looking back at certain perilous moments in my own life, I remember
them with a kind of joy, not that there was any joyful excitement then, but because they
broadened my horizon, lifted me for a time above myself.
