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

Through every generation of the human race there has been a constant war, a war with fear. Those who have the courage to conquer it are made free and those who are conquered by it are made to suffer until they have the courage to defeat it, or death takes them.

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

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

There would be nothing to frighten you if you refused to be afraid.

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.
