Courage invented cartography, then the ice ax.

Courage is fear — with a plan.

At the heart of fear is selfishness, at the heart of courage is love.

The wages of courage are failure,  and exhilarating transformation!

Courage is fear, pushed to the rear.

Brave is not a feeling; it’s no ceiling.

Fear won’t compromise; courage gifts the other side.

Both fear and courage pray, only courage gets off its knees.

The courageous are cowards, by fear empowered.

First share your fear, then share your courage.

The very courageous are highly contagious.

All are cowards; a few just refuse to act like it.

Screw your courage to a job board.

Raise courageous children; take vacations without them.

The soul that’s smart brooks no tart heart.

Cowards cheat; the brave compete.

Bravery lashes down the watery hatches, sets the slashing sails and takes the spinning wheel when no one comes on deck to help.

The very brave fear greatly, then they charge.

For the courageous it will suffice, step to the plate and miss it thrice.

All suffer; the courageous simply weep in a corner more quietly.

Cowards and valiants die many times before their deaths; valiants just break out of their graves and flush their sorry corpses out into the open again faster.

The brave let the irresponsible solve their own problems.

Death’s not a flattened end to fear; it’s a high vaulting premier.
