Determination, energy, and courage appear spontaneously when we care deeply about something. We take risks that are unimaginable in any other context.

Great tragedy has come to us, and we are meeting it with the best that is in our country, with courage and concern for others because this is America. This is who we are.

Way down deep, we're all motivated by the same urges. Cats have the courage to live by them.

Suffering! We owe to it all that is good in us, all that gives value to life we owe to it pity, we owe to it courage, we owe to it all the virtues.

Failure is only postponed success as long as courage 'coaches' ambition. The habit of persistence is the habit of victory.
