Running away from fear is fear; fighting pain is pain; trying to be brave is being scared
Fear is the opportunity for courage, not proof of cowardice.
It's not brave to do something that doesn't scare you.
The important thing about "brave" is, it doesn't mean you're not terrified.
Some have been thought brave because they were afraid to run away.
The real hero is the man who fights even though he is scared.
You don't know what bravery is until you overcome fear.
The brave man, the real hero, quakes with terror, sweats, feels his very bowels betray him, and in spite of this moves forward to do the act he dreads.
