Courage and Strength

Not everything that is faced can be changed. But nothing can be changed until it is faced.

When a man’s willing and eager, the gods join in.

Determine that the thing can and shall be done, and then we shall find the way.

High sentiments always win in the end. The leaders who offer blood, toil, tears and sweat always get more out of their followers than those who offer safety and a good time. When it comes to the pinch, human beings are heroic.

You will do foolish things, but do them with enthusiasm.

Only a fool argues with a skunk, a mule or the cook.

Great works are performed, not by strength, but by perseverance.

Vitality shows not only in the ability to persist but in the ability to start over.

Let me tell you the secret that has led me to my goal. My strength lies solely in my tenacity.

Keep your fears to yourself, but share your courage.

You can’t test courage cautiously.

Courage is often lack of insight, whereas cowardice in many cases is based on good information.

Curiosity will conquer fear even more than bravery will.

Courage is the ladder on which all the other virtues mount.

Facing it—always facing it—that’s the way to get through. Face it!

Real courage is when you know you’re licked before you begin, but you begin anyway and see it through no matter what.

If you’re strong enough, there are no precedents.

Fame is the perfume of heroic deeds.

Maybe being grateful means recognizing what you have for what it is. Appreciating small victories. Admiring the struggle it takes to simply be human. At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing is reason enough to celebrate. Meredith Grey ABOUT THE AUTHOR B. Ashiedu lives in the UK with her awesome husband. She enjoys exploring museums and new places with her husband.

Be thankful to all those people who have hurt you or disappointed you. Because they are the one who made you wise and strong. Anurag Prakash Ray

We shall be better and braver and less helpless if we think that we ought to enquire, than we should have been if we indulged in the idle fancy that there was no knowing and no use in seeking to know what we do not know;— that is a theme upon which I am ready to fight, in word and deed, to the utmost of my power.

There's a victory and defeat. The first and best of victories, the lowest and worst of defeats which each man gains or sustains at the hands not of another, but of himself.

Some have courage in pleasures, and some in pains; some in desires, and some in fears; and some are cowards under the same conditions.

Self-conquest is the greatest of victories.
