Motivational Quotes
Courage
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.

Best Quotes about Courage
Some have been thought brave because they were afraid to run away.
Thomas Fuller
Have the courage to say no. Have the courage to face the truth. Do the right thing because it is right. These are the magic keys to living your life with integrity.
Stone, W. Clement
If we must fall, we should boldly meet the danger.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius
When you meet your antagonist, do everything in a mild and agreeable manner. Let your courage be as keen, but at the same time as polished, as your sword.
Richard Brinsley Sheridan
Noah was a brave man to sail in a wooden boat with two termites.
Like a boxer in a title fight, you have to walk in that ring alone.
Joel, Billy
The courage we desire and prize is not the courage to die decently, but to live manfully.
Carlyle, Thomas
It shows a brave and resolute spirit not to be agitated in exciting circumstances.
Cicero, Marcus T.
The scars you acquire while exercising courage will never make you feel inferior.
Battista, D.A.
Life only demands from you the strength that you possess. Only one feat is possible; not to run away.
Hammarskjold, Dag
Until the day of his death, no man can be sure of his courage.
Anouilh, Jean
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
Part of courage is simple consistency.
Noonan, Peggy
It requires courage not to surrender oneself to the ingenious or compassionate counsels of despair that would induce a man to eliminate himself from the ranks of the living; but it does not follow from this that every huckster who is fattened and nourished in self-confidence has more courage than the man who yielded to despair.
Kierkegaard, SĀ°ren
I thought ten thousand swords must have leaped from their scabbards to avenge even a look that threatened her with insult. But the age of chivalry is gone. That of sophists, economists and calculators has succeeded; and the glory of Europe is gone forever.
Burke, Edmund
Bravery has no place where it can avail nothing.
Johnson, Samuel
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?
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
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
Nothing splendid has ever been achieved except by those who dared believe that something inside them was superior to circumstance.
Barton, Bruce
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
If men knew all that women think, they would be twenty times more daring.
Karr, Alphonse
Act boldly and unseen forces will come to your aid.
Brande, Dorothea
A great part of courage is the courage of having done the thing before.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
This is the test of your manhood: How much is there left in you after you have lost everything outside of yourself?
Marden, Orison Swett
He who loses wealth loses much; he who loses a friend loses more; but he that loses his courage loses all.
Cervantes, Miguel De
To love someone deeply gives you strength. Being loved by someone deeply gives you courage.
Lao-Tzu
Live as brave men; and if fortune is adverse, front its blows with brave hearts.
Cicero
Fortune and love favor the brave.
Ovid
Grant what thou commandest and then command what thou wilt.
Augustine, St.
Wealth lost is something lost, honor lost is something lost: Courage lost all is lost.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Courage is the capacity to conduct oneself with restraint in times of prosperity and with courage and tenacity when things do not go well.
Forrestal, James V.
All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
Disney, Walt
All my life I knew that there was all the money you could want out there. All you have to do is go after it.
Carlson, Curtis
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
But you be strong and do not lose courage, for there is reward for your work. [ 2 Chronicles 15:7]
Bible
Courage is rightly considered the foremost of the virtues, for upon it, all others depend.
Churchill, Winston
Whether you be man or woman you will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.
Allen, James
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.
Flatter me, and I may not believe you. Criticize me, and I may not like you. Ignore me, and I may not forgive you. Encourage me, and I may not forget you.
Arthur, William
Private bravery is often the price of personal victory.
Live as brave men and face adversity with stout hearts.
Horace
Courage is being scared to death - but saddling up anyway.
John Wayne
Life becomes real only when we begin to face and solve our own problems. Until then we only swim in circles in a large fantasy world which tends to make us very tired of living. Don't waste energy! Face life now!
Screw up your courage, you screwed up everything else.
Smith, Donald
Bravery is the capacity to perform properly even when scared half to death.
Bradley, Omar
Courage leads to heaven; fear leads to death.
Seneca
A word of encouragement during a failure is worth more than an hour of praise after success.
Courage, not compromise, brings the smile of God's approval.
Monson, Thomas S.
Bravery and stupidity go hand in hand.
Summers, David
