It always seems impossible until it's done.

I never lose. I either win or learn.

A winner is a dreamer who never gives up.

May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears.

Courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it.

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

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena.

Believe you can and you're halfway there.

Courage is not having the strength to go on; it is going on when you don't have the strength.

Security is mostly a superstition. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing.

Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.

Courage is grace under pressure.

There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self.

Courage is the most important of all the virtues because without courage, you can't practice any other virtue consistently.

Nothing can dim the light which shines from within.

My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

Faith is taking the first step even when you don't see the whole staircase.

Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

I have learned over the years that when one's mind is made up, this diminishes fear.

Stand for something or you will fall for anything. Today's mighty oak is yesterday's nut that held its ground.

The most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity.

Courage is the price that life exacts for granting peace.

He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.

Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.

Courage is not simply one of the virtues, but the form of every virtue at the testing point.

Perhaps all the dragons in our lives are princesses who are only waiting to see us act, just once, with beauty and courage.

To see the truth of the mountain, you must not fear the mist along the trail.

The roof that weathers the heaviest snow does not shake with the wind.

Better to light a single candle than to sit in bitterness and curse the dark.

To see what is right and not do it is the supreme want of courage.

Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.

The lion waits for no coronation ceremony in the jungle; he rules the forest by his own sovereign valour and strength.

Even a tiny earthen oil lamp can dispel the pitch darkness of a thousand-year-old cavern.

One who exercises sovereignty over their own senses fears nothing under the sun.

Magic is believing in yourself, if you can do that, you can make anything happen.

A true warrior bears his battle scars as the sacred jewelry of honor.

Until the lion has his own storyteller, the tale of the hunt will always glorify the hunter.

The foot that walks gathers thorns, but the foot that sits home in fear gathers only dust.

If you think you are too small to make a difference, try spending the night with a mosquito.

The bird that perches on a branch is never terrified of the twig snapping beneath it, for its trust is not in the wood, but in its own wings.

Fortune favors the bold and resolute heart.

He who has completely overcome his fears will truly be free.

Death smiles upon every mortal; all that a noble human can do is smile back with dignity.

The wolf that stays curled in its warm lair never tastes meat.

Where there is fierce courage in the breast, a pathway through the deepest snow will always be carved.

He who sits forever by the warm hearth hears no wolves, but he sees no new horizons.

Do not judge the courage of a captain while the ship is tied securely to the wooden pier.

A brave person carries their sanctuary and home wherever their two feet stand.

Better to stand bravely and fall in the light of day than to live a hundred winters groveling in the shadows.

Do not fear the dark trail; the stars shine with their purest brilliance only when the night is deepest.

A brave warrior does not run from the storm; he runs directly into it, knowing that the fastest way through is head-on.

Mistakes are always forgivable, if one has the courage to admit them.

To dare is to lose one's footing momentarily. Not to dare is to lose oneself.

How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.

In spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart.

I know not all that may be coming, but be it what it will, I'll go to it laughing.

When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.

Your silence will not protect you.

The cave you fear to enter holds the treasure you seek.

I am no bird; and no net ensnares me; I am a free human being with an independent will.

Life begins where fear ends.

Courage is a love affair with the unknown.

Don't move the way fear makes you move. Move the way love makes you move. Move the way joy makes you move.

Whenever a choice arises, choose the unknown, choose the risky, choose that which makes your heart beat faster.

The greatest fear in the world is of the opinions of others. The moment you are unafraid of the crowd you are no longer a sheep, you become a lion.

True rebellion is not against society; true rebellion is against your own unconsciousness.

Never surrender your freedom to anything or anyone. Freedom is the greatest treasure.

Trust is the courage to step into the abyss.

The wound is the place where the light enters you.

What you seek is seeking you.

The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.

Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one.

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.

We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished.

Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.

You cannot find peace by avoiding life.

One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.

Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.

Out of your vulnerabilities will come your strength.

And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music.
