Just as courage is the danger of life, so is fear its safeguard.

Every man gives his life for what he believes ... one life is all we have to live and we live it according to what we believe.

Act with courage and dignity; stick to the ideals that give meaning to life.

Life at its noblest leaves mere happiness far behind; and indeed cannot endure it. Happiness is not the object of life: life has no object: it is an end in itself; and courage consists in the readiness to sacrifice happiness for an intenser quality of life.

Life can be wonderful if you're not afraid of it. All it needs is courage, imagination ... and a little dough.
