"Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage with others." ― Robert Louis Stevenson Topic(s): Courage More From Robert Louis Stevenson "Every heart that has beat strongly and cheerfully has left a hopeful impulse behind it in the world, and bettered the tradition of mankind." "Wine is bottled poetry." "You cannot run away from weakness; you must some time fight it out or perish; and if that be so, why not now, and where you stand?" More In Courage "Real courage is when you know you’re licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what."― Harper Lee "I fear some of our leaders today have lost the courage to stand up. What we have now are politicians. They won’t offer real plans, and only stand up when they want to blame someone else."― Susana Martinez "Courage stands halfway between cowardice and rashness, one of which is a lack, the other an excess of courage."― Plutarch
