The only happiness a brave person ever troubles themselves in asking about is happiness enough to get their work done.

It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies but just as much to stand up to our friends.

The bravest sight in the world is to see a great man struggling against adversity.

Behold a worthy sight to which the God turning his attention to his own work may direct his gaze. Behold an equal thing worthy of a God a brave man matched in conflict with evil fortune.

Like many other touchstones of twenty-first-century pop culture 'The Sopranos' was hatched in the late Nineties predicting a future that never arrived. It was designed for a decade that would be just like the Nineties except more so in an America that enjoyed seeing itself as smarter and braver and freer than ever before.

Neither a wise man nor a brave man lies down on the tracks of history to wait for the train of the future to run over him.

I'm not funny. What I am is brave.

Many have left their families to defend our freedom. We salute their bravery we express our appreciation and support to their families. And we pray for their safe return.

My heart goes out to the brave citizens of Syria who each day risk and even sacrifice their lives to achieve freedom from a murderous regime. We in Israel welcome the historic struggle to forge democratic peace-loving governments in our region.

We call our country home of the brave and land of the free but it's not. We give a false portrayal of freedom. We're not free - if we were we'd allow people their freedom.

History has taught us over and over again that freedom is not free. When push comes to shove the ultimate protectors of freedom and liberty are the brave men and women in our armed forces. Throughout our history they've answered the call in bravery and sacrifice.

Israel was not created in order to disappear - Israel will endure and flourish. It is the child of hope and the home of the brave. It can neither be broken by adversity nor demoralized by success. It carries the shield of democracy and it honors the sword of freedom.

Forgiveness is a virtue of the brave.

Being brave isn't the absence of fear. Being brave is having that fear but finding a way through it.

But I love being scared. I think you're brave only when you do things that scare you. I've always used fear as a motivator. I'm not sure why.

Curiosity will conquer fear even more than bravery will.

Do not look upon this world with fear and loathing. Bravely face whatever the gods offer.

If we take the generally accepted definition of bravery as a quality which knows no fear I have never seen a brave man. All men are frightened. The more intelligent they are the more they are frightened.

It is the perpetual dread of fear the fear of fear that shapes the face of a brave man.

Be brave. Take risks. Nothing can substitute experience.

One day it just hit me. This is it. You are not in love. So either stay in it because you have a child or be brave and find the man of your dreams and marry him for real.

The coward sneaks to death the brave live on.

Quarreling over food and drink having neither scruples nor shame not knowing right from wrong not trying to avoid death or injury not fearful of greater strength or of greater numbers greedily aware only of food and drink - such is the bravery of the dog and boar.

Bravery is the capacity to perform properly even when scared half to death.
