It takes as much courage to have tried and failed as it does to have tried and succeeded.

Courage consists not in blindly overlooking danger, but in seeing it, and conquering it.

Creativity takes courage.

Courage enlarges, cowardice diminishes resources. In desperate straits the fears of the timid aggravate the dangers that imperil the brave.
