“The brave man is not the one without fear but the one who does what he must despite being afraid. To succeed, you must be willing to risk total failure; you must learn this.”
“Don't you see? You can't be brave without being afraid. The brave ones are always afraid. But they do what they must, even so.”
“I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.”
“Your desire to succeed must overpower your fear of failure!”
“You are right to be afraid," he said, "but where does this fear lead you? Nowhere. You must let go of fear.”
“To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the greatesthazard of life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change, grow, live, and love.”
