That man is not truly brave who is afraid either to seem or to be, when it suits him, a coward.
Edgar Allan Poe
» Edgar Allan Poe - all quotes »
Be scared. You can’t help that. But don’t be afraid. Ain’t nothing in the woods going to hurt you unless you corner it, or it smells that you are afraid. A bear or a deer, too, has got to be scared of a coward the same as a brave man has got to be.
William Faulkner
The difference between a brave man and a coward is a coward thinks twice before jumping in the cage with a lion. The brave man doesn't know what a lion is. He just thinks he does.
Charles Bukowski
You always know the mark of a coward. A coward hides behind freedom. A brave person stands in front of freedom and defends it for others.
Henry Rollins
A sober man may become a drunkard through being a coward. A brave man may become a coward through being a drunkard.
Gilbert Keith Chesterton
A coward turns away, but a brave man's choice is danger.
