Courage Quotes
Eleanor Roosevelt: You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop
to look fear in the face. You must do the thing which you think you cannot do.
James Freeman Clarke: Conscience is the root of all true courage; if a man would be brave let him obey his
conscience.
Theodore Roosevelt: It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled,
or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the
arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes short again
and again, who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause, who at
best knows achievement and who at the worst if he fails at least fails while daring greatly so that his place shall
never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
Robert Frost: The best way out is always through.
Mark Twain: Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear. Except a creature be part
coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave.
John Wayne: Courage is being scared to death... and saddling up anyway.
