Brave soldier, never fear. Even though your death is near.
Perhaps a hero is someone who doesn’t register his own vulnerability. Is it courage, then, if you’re too daft to know you’re mortal?
The sight of a coward's blood can never make a warrior tremble.
a woman, when she is heroic, is not heroic by halves.
Strange that cowards cannot see that their greatest safety lies in dauntless courage.
There is something captivating in spirit and intrepidity, to which, we often yield as to a resistless power; nor can he reasonably expect, the confidence of others who too apparently distrusts himself.
This was the mark of an uncommon soldier, someone whose courage away from the battlefield was the same as that on it.
Without excuse and self-consideration of health or limb or life, true soldiers fight, live to fight, love the thickest of the fight, and die in the midst of it.
No coward soul is mine, No trembler in the world's storm-troubled sphere.
