Arthur Schopenhauer on courage

Intellect is invisible to the man who has none.

Life is a business that does not cover the costs.

There is no more mistaken path to happiness than worldliness, revelry, high life.

Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees the others.

Aristotle384–322 BC

Cowards die many times before their deaths. The valiant never taste of death but once.

William Shakespeare1564–1616Julius Caesar (1599), Act II, scene ii.In context

Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
