Author: Ralph Waldo Emerson
About: Courage
"Courage, the highest gift, that scorns to bend
To mean devices for a sordid end.
Courage–an independent spark from Heaven's bright throne,
By which the soul stands raised, triumphant high, alone.
Great in itself, not praises of the crowd,
Above all vice, it stoops not to be proud.
Courage, the mighty attribute of powers above,
By which those great in war, are great in love.
The spring of all brave acts is seated here,
As falsehoods draw their sordid birth from fear."
Author: George Farquhar
About: Courage
"Stop shallow water from running, it will rage; tread on a worm
and it will turn."
Author: Robert Greene
About: Courage
"Few persons have courage enough to appear as good as they really
are."
Author: A.W. Hare and J.C. Hare
About: Courage
"Tender handed stroke a nettle,
And it stings you for your pains;
Grasp it like a man of mettle,
And it soft as silk remains."
Author: Aaron Hill
About: Courage
"O friends, be men, and let your hearts be strong,
And let no warrior in the heat of fight
Do what may bring him shame in others' eyes;
For more of those who shrink from shame are safe
Than fall in battle, while with those who flee
Is neither glory nor reprieve from death."
Author: Homer ("Smyrns of Chios")
