Best Quotes about Courage
The beauty of the soul shines out when a man bears with composure one heavy mischance after another, not because he does not feel them, but because he is a man of high and heroic temper.
Aristotle
Courage is getting away from death by continually coming within an inch of it.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
Courage is sometimes frail as hope is frail: a fragile shoot between two stones that grows brave toward the sun though warmth and brightness fail, striving and faith the only strength it knows.
Rodman, Frances
A man not perfect, but of heart so high, of such heroic rage, That even his hopes became a part of earth's eternal heritage.
Gilder, Richard Watson
I am convinced that one of the biggest factors in success is the courage to undertake something.
Worsham, James A.
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
The test of tolerance comes when we are in a majority; the test of courage comes when we are in a minority.
Stockman, Ralph W.
Follow the path of the unsafe, independent thinker. Expose your ideas to the danger of controversy. Speak your mind and fear less the label of crackpot than the stigma of conformity.
Watson, Thomas J.
We can never be certain of our courage until we have faced danger.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De
Have the courage to live. Anyone can die.
Cody, Robert
You cannot fly like an eagle with wings of a wren.
Hudson, William Henry
True courage is like a kite; a contrary wind raises it higher.
Petit-Senn, John
Some have been thought brave because they didn't have the courage to run away.
Proverb
It is a blessed thing that in every age some one has had the individuality enough and courage enough to stand by his own convictions.
Ingersoll, Robert Green
Courage is like love; it must have hope to nourish it.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
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
All brave men love; for he only is brave who has affections to fight for, whether in the daily battle of life, or in physical contests.
Hawthorne, Nathaniel
A true knight is fuller of bravery in the midst, than in the beginning of danger.
Sidney, Sir Philip
Courage is going from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm.
Churchill, Winston
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
He that would be superior to external influences must first become superior to his own passions.
Johnson, Samuel
With your help I can advance against a troop; with my God I can scale a wall. [Psalms 18:29]
Bible
The finest gift you can give anyone is encouragement. Yet, almost no one gets the encouragement they need to grow to their full potential. If everyone received the encouragement they need to grow, the genius in most everyone would blossom and the world would produce abundance beyond the wildest dreams. We would have more than one Einstein, Edison, Schweitzer, Mother Theresa, Dr. Salk and other great minds in a century.
Madwed, Sidney
Much of what we call evil is due entirely to the way men take the phenomenon. It can so often be converted into a bracing and tonic good by a simple change of the sufferer's inner attitude from one of fear to one of fight; its string can so often depart and turn into a relish when, after vainly seeking to shun it, we agree to face about and bear it...
James, William
Real courage is when you know you're licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what.
Lee, Harper
The pressure of adversity does not affect the mind of the brave man. It is more powerful than external circumstances.
Seneca
It takes vision and courage to create -- it takes faith and courage to prove.
Young, Owen D.
A strong man and a waterfall always channel their own path.
We need to find the courage to say NO to the things and people that are not serving us if we want to rediscover ourselves and live our lives with authenticity.
Angelis, Barbara De
I'm very brave generally, he went on in a low voice: only today I happen to have a headache.
Carroll, Lewis
Rest not. Life is sweeping by; go and dare before you die. Something mighty and sublime, leave behind to conquer time.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
As for courage and will -- we cannot measure how much of each lies within us, we can only trust there will be sufficient to carry through trials which may lie ahead.
Norton, Andre
Courage is acting in spite of fear.
Hunter, Howard W.
As a rock on the seashore he standeth firm, and the dashing of the waves disturbeth him not. He raiseth his head like a tower on a hill, and the arrows of fortune drop at his feet. In the instant of danger, the courage of his heart here, and scorn to fly.
Akhenaton
I've been through it all, baby. I'm Mother Courage.
Taylor, Elizabeth
True courage is cool and calm. The bravest of men have the least of a brutal, bullying insolence, and in the very time of danger are found the most serene and free.
Shaftesbury, Lord
It is the perpetual dread of fear, the fear of fear, that shapes the face of a brave man.
Bernanos, Georges
Courage conquers all things: it even gives strength to the body.
Ovid
Correction does much, but encouragement does more. Encouragement after censure is as the sun after a shower.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
No more turning away from the weak and the weary. No more turning away from the coldness inside. Just a world that we all must share. It's not enough just to stand and stare. Is it only a dream that there'll be no more turning away.
Gilmore, David
The most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.
Coubertin, Baron Pierre De
The brave person thinks of themselves last of all.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
Many would be cowards if they had courage enough.
Thomas Fuller
Courage leads to heaven; fear leads to death.
Seneca
The real acid test of courage is to be just your honest self when everybody is trying to be like somebody else.
Jensen, Andrew
Live as brave men and face adversity with stout hearts.
Horace
It takes a lot of courage to show your dreams to someone else.
Bombeck, Erma
One who lacks courage to start has already finished
Courage is a special kind of knowledge: the knowledge of how to fear what ought to be feared and how not to fear what ought no to be feared.
Ben-Gurion, David
If we have the courage and tenacity of our forebears, who stood firmly like a rock against the lash of slavery, we shall find a way to do for our day what they did for theirs.
Bethune, Mary Mcleod
