Plutarch
  • The wildest colts make the best horses.

  • What we achieve inwardly will change outer reality.

  • I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod my shadow does that much better.

  • Courage consists not in hazarding without fear but being resolutely minded in a just cause.

  • Courage stands halfway between cowardice and rashness, one of which is a lack, the other an excess of courage.
