Best Quotes about Courage
If I were asked to give what I consider the single most useful bit of advice for all humanity it would be this: Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life and when it comes, hold you head high, look it squarely in the eye and say, I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me.
Landers, Ann
Courage enlarges, cowardice diminishes resources. In desperate straits the fears of the timid aggravate the dangers that imperil the brave.
Bovee, Christian Nevell
To boldly go where no man has gone before.
TV series, Star Trek
Write on your doors the saying wise and old. Be bold! and everywhere -- Be bold; Be not too bold! Yet better the excess Than the defect; better the more than less sustaineth him and the steadiness of his mind beareth him out.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth
He who loses wealth loses much; he who loses a friend loses more; but he that loses his courage loses all.
Cervantes, Miguel De
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
We must have the courage to allow a little disorder in our lives.
Weininger, Ben
Discoveries are often made by not following instructions, by going off the main road, by trying the untried.
Tyger, Frank
It takes a lot of courage to show your dreams to someone else.
Bombeck, Erma
Finally, be strong in the Lord, and in the strength of His might. [Ephesians 6:10]
Bible
Courage conquers all things: it even gives strength to the body.
Ovid
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
Live as brave men and face adversity with stout hearts.
Horace
Courage charms us, because it indicates that a man loves an idea better than all things in the world, that he is thinking neither of his bed, nor his dinner, nor his money, but will venture all to put in act the invisible thought of his mind.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Courage, not compromise, brings the smile of God's approval.
Monson, Thomas S.
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.
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.
I am convinced that one of the biggest factors in success is the courage to undertake something.
Worsham, James A.
One who lacks courage to start has already finished
Courage is a quality so necessary for maintaining virtue, that it is always respected, even when it is associated with vice.
Johnson, Samuel
Be bold-and mighty forces will come to your aid.
King, Basil
Courage is the ladder on which all the other virtues mount.
Clare Booth Luce
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 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.
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
Courage is getting away from death by continually coming within an inch of it.
Chesterton, Gilbert K.
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
The only courage that matters is the kind that gets you from one moment to the next.
Mignon McLaughlin
When valour preys on reason, it eats the sword it fights with.
William Shakespeare
Half a man's wisdom goes with his courage.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
I am more important than my problems.
Ferrer, Jose
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
Pugnacity is a form of courage, but a very bad form.
Lewis, Sinclair
Many would be cowards if they had courage enough.
Thomas Fuller
True courage is not the brutal force of vulgar heroes. Rather the firm resolve of virtue and reason.
Whitehead, Alfred North
Woman and men of retiring timidity are cowardly only in dangers which affect themselves, but the first to rescue when others are in danger.
Richter, Jean Paul
Some have been thought brave because they didn't have the courage to run away.
Proverb
No one can be brave who considers pain to be the greatest evil in life, or can they be temperate who considers pleasure to be the highest good.
Cicero, Marcus T.
All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
Disney, Walt
I've been through it all, baby. I'm Mother Courage.
Taylor, Elizabeth
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not tremble or be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go. [Joshua 1:9]
Bible
True courage is a result of reasoning. A brave mind is always impregnable.
Collier, Jeremy
I never thought much of the courage of a lion tamer. Inside the cage he is at least safe from people.
Shaw, George Bernard
Nothing gives a fearful man more courage than another's fear.
Eco, Umberto
Be larger than your task.
Marden, Orison Swett
The courage we desire and prize is not the courage to die decently, but to live manfully.
Carlyle, Thomas
We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.
King Jr. Martin Luther
He that would be superior to external influences must first become superior to his own passions.
Johnson, Samuel
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
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.
