“The sun, that brave man,
Comes through boughs that lie in wait,
That brave man.

Green and gloomy eyes
In dark forms of the grass
Run away.

The good stars,
Pale helms and spiky spurs,
Run away.

Fears of my bed,
Fears of life and fears of death,
Run away.

That brave man comes up
From below and walks without meditation,
That brave man.”

“Neither a wise man or a brave man lies down on the tracks of history to wait for the train of the future to run over him.”

“A coward turns away, but a brave man's choice is danger.”

“The brave man is not he who feels no fear,
For that were stupid and irrational;
But he, whose noble soul its fear subdues,
And bravely dares the danger nature shrinks from.”

“Some have been thought brave because they were afraid to run away.”

“The Brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear”

“A brave man is one who admits his fear. Only a fool believes himself invincible.”

“We can't be brave without fear.”

“There are worser ills to face
Than foemen in the fray;
And many a man has fought because—
He feared to run away.”

“To move is to stir, and to be valiant is to stand; therefore, if tou art mov'd, thou runst away. (To be angry is to move, to be brave is to stand still. Therefore, if you're angry, you'll run away.)”
