Courage is contagious. When a brave man takes a stand, the spines of others are stiffened.--Billy Graham

Courage is doing what you're afraid to do. There can be no courage unless you're scared.--Eddie Rickenbacker

Courage is not a virtue or value among other personal values like love or fidelity. It is the foundations that underlies and gives reality to all other virtue and personal values.--Rollo May (The Courage to Create)

Courage is not simply another virtue, it is the true form each and every virtue takes when put into practice.--Michael Rawls (from Friday's Inspiration: The Foundation of Integrity - 6/1/2001)

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.--Ambrose Redmoon
