He who loses wealth loses much he who loses a friend loses more but he that loses his courage loses all.

True courage is not the brutal force of vulgar heroes, but the firm resolve of virtue and reason.

At the bottom of not a little of the bravery that appears in the world, there lurks a miserable cowardice. Men will face powder and steel because they have not the courage to face public opinion.

Physical bravery is an animal instinct moral bravery is much higher and truer courage.

While President Bush likes to project an image of strength and courage, the real truth is that in the presence of his large financial contributors, he is a moral coward.
