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.

We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.

Fear is a reaction. Courage is a decision.

Do the thing you fear most and the death of fear is certain.

Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear, not absence of fear.

You must not fear death, my lads; defy him, and you drive him into the enemy's ranks.
