COURAGE
Quotes
One of the greatest discoveries a man makes, one of his great surprises, is to find he can do what he was afraid he couldn't do.
Either you decide to stay in the shallow end of the pool or you go out in the ocean.
The bravest thing you can do when you are not brave is to profess courage and act accordingly.
One man with courage makes a majority.
The only rule is, do what you really, impulsively, wish to do. But always act on your own responsibility, sincerely. And have the courage of your own strong emotion.
