Motivational Quotes
Courage
Courage is rightly considered the foremost of the virtues, for upon it, all others depend.

Best Quotes about Courage
The courage of life is often a less dramatic spectacle than the courage of the final moment; but it is no less a magnificent mixture of triumph and tragedy.
Kennedy, John F.
Father, may these people have the vision to see, the faith to accept the truth, the courage to stand by that which they know is right.
There are obstinate and unknown braves who defend themselves inch by inch in the shadows against the fatal invasion of want and turpitude. There are noble and mysterious triumphs which no eye sees. No renown rewards, and no flourish of trumpets salutes. Life, misfortune, isolation, abandonment, and poverty and battlefields which have their heroes.
Hugo, Victor
Anybody with a little guts and the desire to apply himself can make it, he can make anything he wants to make of himself.
Shoemaker, Willie
The world's male chivalry has perished out, but women are knights-errant to the last; and, if Cervantes had been greater still, he had made his Don a Donna.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
'Tis easy enough to be pleasant, When life flows along like a song; But the man worth while is the one who will smile when everything goes dead wrong.
Wilcox, Ella Wheeler
To love someone deeply gives you strength. Being loved by someone deeply gives you courage.
Lao-Tzu
I'm very brave generally, he went on in a low voice: only today I happen to have a headache.
Carroll, Lewis
Last, but by no means least, courage-moral courage, the courage of one's convictions, the courage to see things through. The world ;is in a constant conspiracy against the brave. It's the age-old struggle-the roar of the crowd on one side and the voice of your ;conscience on the other.
Macarthur, Douglas
Stand upright, speak thy thoughts, declare the truth thou hast, that all may share; Be bold, proclaim it everywhere: They only live who dare.
Morris, Lewis
Courage is almost a contradiction in terms. It means a strong desire to live taking the form of a readiness to die.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
Though the practice of chivalry fell even more sadly short of its theoretic standard than practice generally falls below theory, it remains one of the most precious monuments of the moral history of our race, as a remarkable instance of a concerted and organized attempt by a most disorganized and distracted society, to raise up and carry into practice a moral ideal greatly in advance of its social condition and institutions; so much so as to have been completely frustrated in the main object, yet never entirely inefficacious, and which has left a most sensible, and for the most part a highly valuable impress on the ideas and feelings of all subsequent times.
Mill, John Stuart
Courage -- a perfect sensibility of the measure of danger, and a mental willingness to endure it.
Sherman, William T.
If you stand up to be counted, someone will take your seat.
A timid person is frightened before a danger, a coward during the time, and a courageous person afterwards.
Richter, Jean Paul
I am more important than my problems.
Ferrer, Jose
I advise you to say your dream is possible and then overcome all inconveniences, ignore all the hassles and take a running leap through the hoop, even if it is in flames.
Brown, Les
Correction does much, but encouragement does more. Encouragement after censure is as the sun after a shower.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.
Mark Twain
Bravery has no place where it can avail nothing.
Johnson, Samuel
Courage consists in equality to the problem before us.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
It is easy to fly into a passion... anybody can do that, but to be angry with the right person to the right extent and at the right time and in the right way that is not easy.
Aristotle
A lot of people do not muster the courage to live their dreams because they are afraid to die.
Brown, Les
Courage consists not in hazarding without fear; but being resolutely minded in a just cause.
Plutarch
It is the perpetual dread of fear, the fear of fear, that shapes the face of a brave man.
Bernanos, Georges
With your help I can advance against a troop; with my God I can scale a wall. [Psalms 18:29]
Bible
And what he greatly thought, he nobly dared.
Homer
It is amidst great perils we see brave hearts.
Regnard, Jean Francois
Be courageous. I have seen many depressions in business. Always America has emerged from these stronger and more prosperous. Be brave as your fathers before you. Have faith! Go forward!
Edison, Thomas A.
The brave person thinks of themselves last of all.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
With courage you will dare to take risks, have the strength to be compassionate and the wisdom to be humble. Courage is the foundation of integrity.
Nair, Keshavan
I think of those who were truly great. The names of those who in their lives fought for life, Who wore at their hearts the fire's center.
Spender, Stephen
Act boldly and unseen forces will come to your aid.
Brande, Dorothea
Courage and modesty are the most unequivocal of virtues, for they are of a kind that hypocrisy cannot imitate; they too have this quality in common, that they are expressed by the same color.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Courage is an everyday thing. When we look reality squarely in the eye and refuse to back away from our awareness, we are living courage.
Let bravery be thy choice, but not bravado.
Menander
Courage and perseverance have a magical talisman, before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish into air.
John Quincy Adams
It takes a lot of courage to show your dreams to someone else.
Bombeck, Erma
Like a boxer in a title fight, you have to walk in that ring alone.
Joel, Billy
It takes courage to attempt the impossible. What would we think of Moses today if when it was time to part the red sea, he had said Why don't you guys go build a bridge?
Courage is not the towering oak that sees storms come and go; it is the fragile blossom that opens in the snow.
Swaim, Alice Mackenzie
Physical courage, which engages all danger, will make a person brave in one way; and moral courage, which defies all opinion, will make a person brave in another.
Colton, Charles Caleb
It takes courage to push yourself to places that you have never been before... to test your limits... to break through barriers. And the day came when the risk it took to remain tight inside the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.
Nin, Anais
For the man sound of body and serene of mind there is no such thing as bad weather; every day has its beauty, and storms which whip the blood do but make it pulse more vigorously.
Gissing, George Robert
The bravest are the most tender; the loving are the daring.
Taylor, Bayard
Courage consists not in blindly overlooking danger, but in seeing it, and conquering it.
Richter, Jean Paul
Fortune helps the brave.
Terence
Be larger than your task.
Marden, Orison Swett
I never thought much of the courage of a lion tamer. Inside the cage he is at least safe from people.
Shaw, George Bernard
Some have been thought brave because they were afraid to run away.
Thomas Fuller
