Fear has its use but cowardice has none.

Mahatma Gandhi

But then, is there cowardice in the acknowledgment of fear? Is there cowardice in being glad that you lived?

Markus Zusak

Fear has its use, but cowardice has none. I may not put my finger into the jaws of a snake, but the very sight of the snake need not strike terror into me.

Mahatma Gandhi

Non-violence and cowardice are contradictory terms. Non-violence is the greatest virtue, cowardice the greatest vice. Non-violence springs from love, cowardice from hate. Non-violence always suffers, cowardice would always inflict suffering. Perfect non-violence is the highest bravery. Non-violent conduct is never demoralising; cowardice always is.

Mahatma Gandhi

Fear has nothing to do with cowardice. A fellow is only yellow when he lets his fear make him quit.

Jerome Cady

Is there cowardice with the acknowledgement of fear?

Markus Zusak

The ultimate act of cowardice is the fat-headed wrestling guy sitting behind the frail kid in math class, clipping him on the ear, saying: 'What are you going to do about that, faggot?' That is cowardice. When the bullets start flying past that jock's saucer-shaped ears, that's not cowardice. That's payback.

Doug Stanhope

Lies come from fear, from cowardice.

Jenny Sanford

I understood about fear. And I knew better than anyone in that room what Mouse was capable of. But still I had been raised in a place where to show your fear was worse than cowardice. It was suicide, a sin.

Walter Mosley

Fear is the opportunity for courage, not proof of cowardice.

John McCain

Fear of ridicule begets the worst cowardice.

Andre Gide

It seems to me that information is the thing which uses matter, uses light, uses spirit, uses whatever it can put its hands on to organize itself into higher and higher levels of self-reflection.

Terence McKenna

Possession of arms implies an element of fear, if not of cowardice.

Mahatma Gandhi
