I desire so to conduct the affairs of this administration that if at the end, when I come to lay down the reins of power, I have lost every other friend on Earth, I shall at least have one friend left, and that friend shall be down inside of me.
Abraham Lincoln
Courage takes many forms. There is physical courage, there is moral courage. Then there is a still higher type of courage - the courage to brave pain, to live with it, to never let others know of it and to still find joy in life; to wake up in the morning with an enthusiasm for the day ahead.
Howard Cosell
This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave.
Elmer Davis
We cannot afford to accumulate a deficit in the books of human fortitude.
Franklin Delano Roosevelt
I would define true courage to be a perfect sensibility of the measure of danger, and a mental willingness to endure it.
William Tecumseh Sherman
The probability that we may fail in the struggle ought not to deter us from the support of a cause we believe to be just; it shall not deter me.
Abraham Lincoln
Ain't it funny how many hundreds of thousands of soldiers we can recruit with nerve. But we just can't find one politician in a million with backbone.
Will Rogers
Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.
Helen Keller

Arthur Koestler
There are times when silence is golden, other times it is just plain yellow.
Ed Cole
