Motivational Quotes
Courage
The bravest thing you can do when you are not brave is to profess courage and act accordingly.

Best Quotes about Courage
There is another side to chivalry. If it dispenses leniency, it may with equal justification invoke control.
Adler, Freda
It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.
Lindbergh, Anne Morrow
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
There are times to cultivate and create, when you nurture your world and give birth to new ideas and ventures. There are times of flourishing and abundance, when life feels in full bloom, energized and expanding. And there are times of fruition, when things come to an end. They have reached their climax and must be harvested before they begin to fade. And finally of course, there are times that are cold, and cutting and empty, times when the spring of new beginnings seems like a distant dream. Those rhythms in life are natural events. They weave into one another as day follows night, bringing, not messages of hope and fear, but messages of how things are.
Trungpa, Chogyam
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
To put it boldly, it is the attempt at a posterior reconstruction of existence by the process of conceptualization.
Einstein, Albert
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!
Life only demands from you the strength that you possess. Only one feat is possible; not to run away.
Hammarskjold, Dag
Courage conquers all things: it even gives strength to the body.
Ovid
Courage consists not in blindly overlooking danger, but in seeing it, and conquering it.
Richter, Jean Paul
What a new face courage puts on everything!
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
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
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
We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.
King Jr. Martin Luther
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.
It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.
Mark Twain
Act boldly and unseen forces will come to your aid.
Brande, Dorothea
Quit thinking that you must halt before the barrier of inner negativity. You need not. You can crash through whatever we see a negative state, that is where we can destroy it.
Howard, Vernon
The burden which is well borne becomes light.
Ovid
And what he greatly thought, he nobly dared.
Homer
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
That's a valiant flea that dares eat his breakfast on the lip of a lion.
Shakespeare, William
Courage is fire, and bullying is smoke.
Disraeli, Benjamin
Gallantry to women -- the sure road to their favor -- is nothing but the appearance of extreme devotion to all their wants and wishes, a delight in their satisfaction, and a confidence in yourself as being able to contribute toward it.
Hazlitt, William
There's no substitute for guts.
Bryant, Bear
You have to be tough.
Ditka, Mike
The acorn becomes an oak by means of automatic growth; no commitment is necessary. The kitten similarly becomes a cat on the basis of instinct. Nature and being are identical in creatures like them. But a man or woman becomes fully human only by his or her choices and his or her commitment to them. People attain worth and dignity by the multitude of decisions they make from day by day. These decisions require courage.
May, Rollo
Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear.
Mark Twain
He who dies before many witnesses always does so with courage.
Voltaire
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
Courage, not compromise, brings the smile of God's approval.
Monson, Thomas S.
The brave person thinks of themselves last of all.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von
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.
A person who walks in another's tracks leaves no footprints.
Keep courage. Whatever you do, do not feel sorry for yourself. You will win in a great age of opportunity.
Evans, Richard L.
With your help I can advance against a troop; with my God I can scale a wall. [Psalms 18:29]
Bible
It takes a lot of courage to show your dreams to someone else.
Bombeck, Erma
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.
You take a number of small steps which you believe are right, thinking maybe tomorrow somebody will treat this as a dangerous provocation. And then you wait. If there is no reaction, you take another step: courage is only an accumulation of small steps.
Konrad, George
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
Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear -- not absence of fear.
Twain, Mark
Good courage in a bad affair is half of the evil overcome.
Plaut
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.
But screw your courage to the sticking-place and we'll not fail.
Shakespeare, William
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
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.
I can do all things through him who strengthens me. [Philippians 4:13]
Bible
Live as brave men and face adversity with stout hearts.
Horace
True courage is like a kite; a contrary wind raises it higher.
Petit-Senn, John
A great deal of talent is lost in the world for want of courage.
Smith, Sydney
