Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.

All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.

I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

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

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

Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.

All you need is the plan, the road map, and the courage to press on to your destination.

The secret to happiness is freedom… And the secret to freedom is courage.

Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye.

If you have no confidence in self, you are twice defeated in the race of life.

Goodness is about character – integrity, honesty, kindness, generosity, moral courage, and the like. More than anything else, it is about how we treat other people.

Courage, sacrifice, determination, commitment, toughness, heart, talent, guts. That’s what little girls are made of.

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.

A grateful heart is a beginning of greatness. It is an expression of humility. It is a foundation for the development of such virtues as prayer, faith, courage, contentment, happiness, love, and well-being.

Creativity takes courage.

You may not always have a comfortable life and you will not always be able to solve all of the world’s problems at once but don’t ever underestimate the importance you can have because history has shown us that courage can be contagious and hope can take on a life of its own.
