Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.

Courage is the capacity to confront what can be imagined.

You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.

Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are often stiffened.

Courage is rightly esteemed the first of human qualities... because it is the quality which guarantees all others.

The most courageous act is still to think for yourself. Aloud.

The courage to be is the courage to accept oneself, in spite of being unacceptable.

A great part of courage is the courage of having done the thing before.

If you could get up the courage to begin, you have the courage to succeed.
