So many of the models of courage we've had, ones that are still taught to boys and girls, are about going out to slay the dragon, to kill. It's a courage that's born out of fear, anger, and hate. But there's this other kind of courage. It's the courage to risk your life, not in war, not in battle, not out of fear ... but out of love and a sense of injustice that has to be challenged. It takes far more courage to challenge unjust authority without violence than it takes to kill all the monsters in all the stories told to children about the meaning of bravery.

But it takes a tremendous amount of guts and courage to go make a play when there's nothing there instead of throwing the ball away.

Jon Gruden

Because it doesn't take much courage to fight when you still believe you can win. What takes real courage is to keep fighting when all hope is gone.

Matthew Polly

I don't know what it takes to make marriage work, but I'm going to keep trying until I get it right. I haven't given up on love or marriage.

Stephanie Mills

To be an actor takes a lot of courage, but the way I did it takes less courage. I was very lucky.

Jeremy Sisto

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

Winston Churchill

Soros has taught me that when you have tremendous conviction on a trade, you have to go for the jugular. It takes courage to be a pig. It takes courage to ride a profit with huge leverage.

Stanley Druckenmiller

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.
