Brave Man Quotes
The brave man wants no charms to encourage him to his duty, and the good man scorns all warnings that would deter him from fulfilling it.
Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton
A coward turns away, but a brave man's choice is danger.
Euripides
For a brave man deserves a well-endowed girl.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
The brave man, if he be compared with the coward, seems foolhardy; and, if with the foolhardy man, seems a coward.
Aristotle
Yet each man kills the thing he loves, By each let this be heard, Some do it with a bitter look, Some with a flattering word, The coward does it with a kiss, The brave man with a sword! Some kill their love when they are young, And some when they are old; Some strangle with the hands of Lust, Some with the hands of Gold: The kindest use a knife, because The dead so soon grow cold. Some love too little, some too long, Some sell, and others buy; Some do the deed with many tears, And some without a sigh: For each man kills the thing he loves, Yet each man does not die.
Oscar Wilde
When their adventures do not succeed, however, they run away; but it was the mark of a brave man to face things that are, and seem, terrible for a man, because it is noble to do so and disgraceful not to do so.
Aristotle
