.Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.


Courage quotes by Frank Herbert


Fear is the single strongest motivating force in our lives. ... The more frightened you become, the better your chances of achieving success.


Courage quotes by Lois Korey


Find out just what people will quietly submit to, and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed on them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.


Courage quotes by Frederick Douglass, African-American slave, and later abolitionist.


Five Truths about Fear
Truth 1. The fear will never go away as long as I continue to grow.
Truth 2. The only way to get rid of the fear of doing something is to go out and do it.
Truth 3. The only way to feel better about myself is to go out… and do it.
Truth 4. Not only am I going to experience fear whenever I’m on unfamiliar territory, but so is everyone else.
Truth 5. Pushing through fear is less frightening than living with the underlying fear that comes from a feeling of helplessness.

Courage quotes by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (German Playwright, Poet, Novelist and Dramatist. 1749-1832)


Here's to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The trouble-makers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They're not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status-quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify, or vilify them. But the only thing you can't do is ignore them. Because they change things. They push the human race forward. And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

Courage quotes by Jeremy Collier

By accepting the human condition more simply, and candidly, by dreading troubles less, calculating less, hoping more.


Courage quotes by Henri Frederic Amiel


However confused the scene of our life appears, however torn we may be who now do face that scene, it can be faced, and we can go on to be whole.


Courage quotes by Muriel Rukeyser


However mean your life is, meet it and live it; do not shun it and call it hard names. It is not so bad as you are.

I am not afraid of storms for I am learning how to sail my ship.

I am not discouraged, because every wrong attempt discarded is another step forward.


Courage quotes by Thomas A. Edison

Courage quotes by Audre Lorde
