It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare; it is because we do not dare that things are difficult.
● Seneca ●
Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them.
● Ralph Waldo Emerson ●
Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.
● Andre Gide ●

A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer.
● Ralph Waldo Emerson ●
We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot.
● Eleanor Roosevelt ●
Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees the others.
● Aristotle ●
We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.
● Martin Luther King, Jr. ●
