Change will never happen when people lack the ability and courage to see themselves for who they are.

There can be no great courage where there is no confidence or assurance, and half the battle is in the conviction that we can do what we undertake.

How few there are who have courage enough to own their faults, or resolution enough to mend them.

He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.

Success means having the courage, the determination, and the will to become the person you believe you were meant to be.

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

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.

Failure is unimportant. It takes courage to make a fool of yourself.

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

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