Worries go down better with soup than without.

My daddy used to tell me not to chew on somethin that was eatin you.

I'll worry about that tomorrow, if it happens.

Worry is interest paid on trouble before it falls due.

Worry never robs tomorrow of its sorrow; it only saps today of its strength.

And which of you with taking thought can add to his stature one cubit?

There are only two things to worry about. You are either sick or you are well. If you are well you have nothing to worry about. If you are sick you have two things to worry about. Either you get well or you will die. If you get well there is nothing to worry about. If you die there are two things to worry about. Either you will go to heaven or hell. If you go to heaven you have nothing to worry about. If you go to hell you will be so busy shaking hands with all your friends, you won't have time to worry.

I sometimes suspect that half our difficulties are imaginary and that if we kept quiet about them they would disappear.

People get so in the habit of worry that if you save them from drowning and put them on a bank to dry in the sun with hot chocolate and muffins, they wonder whether they are catching cold.

If you love God, you never have to worry again.

Niche worrying is a means of conveniently organizing one's paranoia. It's concentrating on a specific fear or phobia at an appropriate time, like focusing on getting legionnaires' disease from inhaling steam containing Legionella pneumophilia bacteria while taking a shower at the gym.

A person must try to worry about things that aren't important so he won't worry too much about things that are.

Worrying is the most natural and spontaneous of all human functions. It is time to acknowledge this, perhaps even to learn to do it better.

It ain't no use putting up your umbrella till it rains.

I highly recommend worrying. It is much more effective than dieting.

A man gets on a train with his little boy, and gives the conductor only one ticket. 'How old's your kid?' the conductor says, and the father says, 'He's four years old.' 'He looks at least twelve to me,' says the conductor. And the father says, 'Can I help it if he worries?'

How much pain have cost us the evils which never happened.

Rule number one is, don't sweat the small stuff. Rule number two is, it's all small stuff.

Worry is interest paid on trouble before it falls due.

When I look back on all these worries I remember the story of the old man who said on his deathbed that he had a lot of trouble in his life, most of which never happened.
