Best Quotes about Courage
The only courage that matters is the kind that gets you from one moment to the next.
Mignon McLaughlin
True courage is not the brutal force of vulgar heroes. Rather the firm resolve of virtue and reason.
Whitehead, Alfred North
In fighting and in everyday life you should be determined though calm. Meet the situation without tenseness yet not recklessly, your spirit settled yet unbiased. An elevated spirit is weak and a low spirit is weak. Do not let the enemy see your spirit.
Musashi, Miyamoto
If men knew all that women think, they would be twenty times more daring.
Karr, Alphonse
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.
Most of the high spots in our lives come about through encouragement. I don't care how great, how famous, how successful a man may be, he hungers for applause.
I would define true courage to be a perfect sensibility of the measure of danger, and a mental willingness to endure it.
Sherman, William T.
The more thou dost advance, the more thy feet pitfalls will meet. The Path that leadeth on is lighted by one fire -- the light of daring burning in the heart. The more one dares, the more he shall obtain. The more he fears, the more that light shall pale
Blavatsky, Helena Petrova
Moral courage is a more rare commodity than bravery in battle or great intelligence.
Kennedy, Robert F.
Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees all others.
Churchill, Winston
It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.
Mark Twain
Better to die on one's feet than to live on one's knees.
Zapata, Emiliano
What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?
Gogh, Vincent Van
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
But screw your courage to the sticking-place and we'll not fail.
Shakespeare, William
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
It shows a brave and resolute spirit not to be agitated in exciting circumstances.
Cicero, Marcus T.
Bravery is the capacity to perform properly even when scared half to death.
Bradley, Omar
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
There is another side to chivalry. If it dispenses leniency, it may with equal justification invoke control.
Adler, Freda
Courage is acting in spite of fear.
Hunter, Howard W.
It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.
Twain, Mark
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.
Noah was a brave man to sail in a wooden boat with two termites.
I decided once and for all that I was going to make it or die.
Johnson, John
It's better to be a lion for a day, than a sheep all your life.
Kenny, Sister Elizabeth
The pressure of adversity does not affect the mind of the brave man. It is more powerful than external circumstances.
Seneca
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
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
Fortune and love favor the brave.
Ovid
The burden which is well borne becomes light.
Ovid
We must have the courage to allow a little disorder in our lives.
Weininger, Ben
To love someone deeply gives you strength. Being loved by someone deeply gives you courage.
Lao-Tzu
Keep courage. Whatever you do, do not feel sorry for yourself. You will win in a great age of opportunity.
Evans, Richard L.
I am convinced that one of the biggest factors in success is the courage to undertake something.
Worsham, James A.
Grant what thou commandest and then command what thou wilt.
Augustine, St.
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
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
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
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
It takes guts to get out of the ruts.
Schuller, Robert H.
I never thought much of the courage of a lion tamer. Inside the cage he is at least safe from people.
Shaw, George Bernard
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
Fortune favors the brave.
Virgil
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
Correction does much, but encouragement does more. Encouragement after censure is as the sun after a shower.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
It is impossible to win the race unless you venture to run, impossible to win the victory unless you dare to battle.
DeVos, Richard M.
Private bravery is often the price of personal victory.
No one reaches a high position without daring.
Syrus, Publilius
More firm and sure the hand of courage strikes, when it obeys the watchful eye of caution.
Thomson, James
