Fear and courage

Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage.
--Anais Nin


Courage is the ladder on which all the other virtues mount.
--Clare Boothe Luce


Without courage, all other virtues lose their meaning.
--W. Churchill


Courage is adversity's lamp.
--Vauvenargues


Courage: doing what you're afraid to do.
There can be no courage unless you're scared.
--Eddie Rickenbacker


Courage is not the absence of fear,
but rather the judgment that something
else is more important than fear.
--Ambrose Redmoon


Sometimes I do get scared.
I do my best through it.
I know it is fleeting.
Tonight I shall work on my courage.
Tomorrow I shall remain strong.
And then I shall play video games.
--Dave Henry
