Motivational Quotes
Courage
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?

Best Quotes about Courage
Fortune favors the brave.
Virgil
Have courage for the great sorrows of life, and patience for the small ones. When you have laboriously accomplished your daily tasks, go to sleep in peace. God is awake.
Hugo, Victor
The more wit the less courage.
Fuller, Thomas
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 dare to do all that may become a man: who dares do more is none.
Shakespeare, William
Give us the fortitude to endure the things which cannot be changed, and the courage to change the things which should be changed, ;and the wisdom to know one from the other.
Hart, Oliver J.
Courage is the capacity to confirm what can be imagined.
Rosten, Leo
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.
Is he alone who has courage on his right hand and faith on his left hand?
Lindbergh, Charles A.
The real acid test of courage is to be just your honest self when everybody is trying to be like somebody else.
Jensen, Andrew
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 most glorious moments in your life are not the so-called days of success, but rather those days when out of dejection and despair you feel rise in you a challenge to life, and the promise of future accomplishments.
Flaubert, Gustave
I'm very brave generally, he went on in a low voice: only today I happen to have a headache.
Carroll, Lewis
Courage is being scared to death - but saddling up anyway.
John Wayne
Part of courage is simple consistency.
Noonan, Peggy
Nothing gives a fearful man more courage than another's fear.
Eco, Umberto
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
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
To boldly go where no man has gone before.
TV series, Star Trek
Correction does much, but encouragement does more. Encouragement after censure is as the sun after a shower.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
I decided once and for all that I was going to make it or die.
Johnson, John
It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.
Lindbergh, Anne Morrow
You've got to jump off cliffs and build your wings on the way down.
Bradbury, Ray
Courage is poorly housed that dwells in numbers; the lion never counts the herd that are about him, nor weighs how many flocks he has to scatter.
Hill, Aaron
True courage is like a kite; a contrary wind raises it higher.
Petit-Senn, John
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.
Most men have more courage than even they themselves think they have.
Greville, Lord
The pressure of adversity does not affect the mind of the brave man. It is more powerful than external circumstances.
Seneca
Act boldly and unseen forces will come to your aid.
Brande, Dorothea
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
True courage is a result of reasoning. A brave mind is always impregnable.
Collier, Jeremy
In love, as in war, a fortress that parleys is half taken.
Valois, Margaret
Courage is like love; it must have hope to nourish it.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
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!
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
I can do all things through him who strengthens me. [Philippians 4:13]
Bible
Here I stand; I can do no other. God help me. Amen!
Luther, Martin
It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.
Twain, Mark
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
The world's male chivalry has perished out, but women are knights-errant to the last; and, if Cervantes had been greater still, he had made his Don a Donna.
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
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
Stand up to crises. Don't let them throw you! Fight to stay calm... even surmount the crisis completely and turn it into an opportunity. Refuse to renounce your self-image. No matter what happens, you must keep your good opinion of yourself. No matter what happens, you must hold your past successes in your imagination, ready for showing in the motion picture screen of your mind. No matter what happens, no matter what you lose, no matter what failures you must endure, you must keep faith in yourself. Then you can stand up to crises, with calm and courage, refusing to buckle; then you will not fall through the floor. You will be able to support yourself.
Maltz, Maxwell
The strangest, most generous, and proudest of all virtues is true courage.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De
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
Grant what thou commandest and then command what thou wilt.
Augustine, St.
Have the courage of your desire.
Gissing, George Robert
I've been through it all, baby. I'm Mother Courage.
Taylor, Elizabeth
I'd rather give my life than be afraid to give it.
Johnson, Lyndon B.
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
