Quote of the day by Milan Kundera: ‘Anyone whose goal is something higher must expect someday to suffer vertigo. Vertigo is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves'- What the Czech-French novelist teaches about courage and overcoming fear

Czech-French author Milan Kundera's profound insight into fear, particularly from 'The Unbearable Lightness of Being,' redefines it not as a deterrent but as a signal of meaningful pursuit. He describes 'vertigo' as the tempting pull to quit, rather than the fear of failure. Kundera's message encourages embracing these moments of doubt as inherent to striving for higher goals, emphasizing courage as the choice to persevere.
