“Bravery is not the absence of fear but the forging ahead despite being afraid”
“I'd heard someone say that bravery was doing the thing you were afraid to do, despite your fear. If that was true I was the bravest person I knew”
“courage was not the absence of fear, but the ability to walk into unknown territory despite it.”
“And one has to understand that braveness is not the absence of fear but rather the strength to keep on going forward despite the fear.”
“Bravery is being the only one who knows you're afraid.”
“I've not ceased being fearful, I've gone ahead despite the pounding in my heart that says: turn back, turn back, you'll die if you go too far.”
