I have reached the conclusion that those who have physical courage also have moral courage. Physical courage is a great test.

Oriana Fallaci

For the men and women of the FBI, bravery is reflected not only in the physical courage often necessary in the job. It can be seen in the courage of conviction, in the courage to act with wisdom in the face of fear, and in the courage it takes to admit mistakes and move forward.

Robert Mueller

Courage was America's watchword, but a courage of the body rather than of the soul - physical courage, not moral.

Mary Roberts Rinehart

Josefina Vazquez Mota

[Intellectual courage is] the quality that allows one to believe in one's judgement in the face of disappointment and widespread skepticism. Intellectual courage is even rarer than physical courage.

John Charles Polanyi

It is a tragedy that we live in a world where physical courage is so common, and moral courage is so rare.

Claude Monet

Moral courage, to me, is much more demanding than physical courage.

Leon L. Van Autreve

It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.

Albert Schweitzer

It is a great thing to see physical courage, and greater still to see moral courage, but the greatest to see of all is spiritual courage; oh, to see a person who will stand true to the integrity of Jesus Christ no matter what he or she goes through!

Oswald Chambers

Successful or not, acts of physical courage always bring honor. It is the smaller forms of valor - standing up for principle at the risk of social disapproval, economic loss or injury to career - that require the greatest moral will power. Since there is usually little upside to winning and a significant and often lasting downside to losing, moral courage often requires as much character as physical bravery.

Michael Josephson

I asked for strength, and God gave me difficulties to make me strong. I asked for wisdom, and God gave me problems to learn to solve. I asked for prosperity, and God gave me a brain and brawn to work. I asked for courage, and God gave me dangers to overcome. I asked for love, and God gave me people to help. I asked for favors, and God gave me opportunities. I received nothing I wanted. I received everything I needed.
