Salman Rushdie

Simplified Meaning:

When dealing with terrorism, the way to overcome it is not to let fear take control of your actions and decisions. Imagine someone is afraid of flying because of news about plane crashes. If they stop traveling by air, their fear controls their life. Instead, if they acknowledge their fear but still choose to fly, they prevent fear from dictating their choices. Terrorists aim to make people live in fear, altering their daily routines and limiting their freedom. By continuing to live normally, even when scared, one undermines the terrorists' goals. For example, after a terrorist attack, if people continue to go to work, visit friends, and enjoy public places, they're showing strength and resilience. This doesn't mean dismissing fear entirely but managing it so it doesn’t hinder how you live your life. By not letting fear shape our behavior, we maintain our freedom and peace of mind. This approach empowers individuals and communities to stand strong against those who try to spread fear and chaos. It’s about courageously making choices that affirm life and liberty, despite personal fears.
