Fear is an expectation of evil. Under fear are arranged the following emotions: terror, shame, nervous shrinking, consternation, panic, mental agony. Terror is fear which produces fright; shame is fear of disgrace; nervous shrinking is a fear that one will have to act; consternation is fear due to a presentation of some unusual occurrence; panic is fear with pressure exercised by sound; mental agony is fear felt when some issue is still in suspense.
— Zeno the Stoic (c. 335-c. 263 B.C.), Greek philosopher
