You want to shut up every Negro who has the courage to stand up and fight for the rights of his people, for the rights of workers, and I have been on many a picket line for the steelworkers too.

I know that throughout their history, the people of the United States defended their freedom, their liberty, their justice, and their rights - if need be - with their lives. I think their courage is so admirable.

War is fear cloaked in courage.

Love makes a subtle man out of a crude one, it gives eloquence to the mute, it gives courage the cowardly and makes the idle quick and sharp.

Heroes to me are guys that sit in libraries. They absorb knowledge and then the risks they take are calculated on the basis of the courage it took to become replete with knowledge.

The courage of a soldier is heightened by his knowledge of his profession.

Such decisions will be far reaching and difficult. But you never lacked courage in the past. Your courage is now needed for the future.

Courage: Great Russian word, fit for the songs of our children's children, pure on their tongues, and free.

Courage is never to let your actions be influenced by your fears.

To me, there is no greater act of courage than being the one who kisses first.
