Yield not to evils, but attack all the more boldly.
The brave and bold persist even against fortune; the timid and cowardly rush to despair through fear alone. [Lat., Fortes et strenuos etiam contra fortunam insistere, timidos et ignoros ad desperationem formidine properare.]
For the ocean is big and my boat is small. Find the courage.
For when last need to desperation driveth, Who dareth most he wiseth counsel giveth. [It., Che spesso avvien che ne' maggior perigli Son piu audaci gli ottimi consigli.]
Life is made up of danger and heartbreak, I laugh in the face of both!
Nothing is more audacious than these women when detected; they assume anger, and take courage from the very crime itself.
It has been my philosophy of life that difficulties vanish when faced boldly.
The place where failure happens is also the place where courage lives.
We should always go before our enemies with confidence, otherwise our apparent uneasiness inspires them with greater boldness.
Boldness in battle is nothing out of the way... but to face down fear in cold blood is rare in any man.
