  • I am convinced that courage is the most important of all the virtues. Because without courage, you cannot practice any other virtue consistently.

But it is only with courage that you can be persistently and insistently kind and generous and fair.

  • Reason in a creature is a faculty of widening the rules and purposes of the use of all its powers far beyond natural instinct; it acknowledges no limits to its projects.
