- "Strong characters are brought out by change of situation, and gentle ones by permanence."
More In Courage

- "No man in the world has more courage than the man who can stop after eating one peanut."― Channing Pollock
- "I think we do better as a country when we go step by step toward a goal, and the goal in this case should be reducing health care costs."― Lamar Alexander
