Bravery Half Perspective

Quote Author

American - Novelist
Born: August 19, 1988

The bravery founded upon the hope of recompense, upon the fear of punishment, upon the experience of success, upon rage, upon ignorance of dangers, is common bravery, and does not merit the name. True bravery proposes a just end, measures the dangers, and, if it is necessary, the affront, with coldness.

Francois de la Noue

Bravery is the capacity to perform properly even when scared half to death.

Omar N. Bradley

I was born in a tiny little enclave of terrified Jewish refugees, less than half a million of them, with no clear perspective of a future - hopes, yes, but no clear perspective.

Amos Oz

I think we're living in an age which despises humanity and despises bravery and doesn't need bravery because modern warfare has rather gone beyond bravery. It is a kind of warfare where people are fighting enemies they never see, killing people of whom they know nothing.

Robertson Davies

You need bravery because in the picture of soul, the bravery points are the most beautiful.

Amit Ray

Bravery is not strength in the face of a far lesser foe. Bravery is the exact opposite of that.

Hank Green

It takes bravery to be a young mom, and it does take bravery to let the world watch.

Jamie Lynn Spears

I'll tell you what bravery really is. Bravery is just determination to do a job that you know has to be done.

Audie Murphy

Bravery ceases to be bravery at a certain point, and becomes mere foolhardiness.

Rabindranath Tagore

Physical bravery is an animal instinct; moral bravery is much higher and truer courage.

Wendell Phillips

People glorify all sorts of bravery except the bravery they might show on behalf of their nearest neighbors.

George Eliot

Bravery is not the absence of fear. Bravery is the ability to operate effectively even while totally terrified.

Stuart Wilde

Esk felt that bravery was called for, but on a night like this bravery lasted only as long as a candle stayed alight.

Terry Pratchett

It is not an act of bravery to try to save your own village. It is an instinct to protect what you possess. Bravery is when you step in to help when you have nothing to lose.

Gail Tsukiyama

Opportunity in war is usually of greater value than bravery... Terrain is often of more value than bravery... Bravery is of more value than numbers.

Publius Flavius Vegetius Renatus

A tree there is that from its topmost bough Is half all glittering flame and half all green Abounding foliage moistened with the dew; And half is half and yet is all the scene; And half and half consume what they renew.

William Butler Yeats
