The greatest test of courage on earth is to bear defeat without losing heart.

We need men with moral courage to speak and write their real thoughts, and to stand by their convictions, even to the very death – Robert Green Ingersoll

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

Whenever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision.

Courage will follow when faith takes the lead.

Courage, above all things, is the first quality of a warrior.

A great deal of talent is lost to the world for want of a little courage. Every day sends to their graves obscure men whose timidity prevented them from making a first effort.

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