Courage is the energy current behind all great actions and the spark that ignites the initial baby steps of growth.

It is the intangible force that propels you forward on your journey.

Just as so many rivers, so many showers of rain from above, so many medicinal springs do not alter the taste of the sea, so the pressure of adversity does not affect the mind of the brave man. For it maintains its balance, and over all that happens it throws its own complexion, because it is more powerful than external circumstances.
