It takes a lot of courage to face up to things you can't do because we feed ourselves so much denial.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Denial has been a way of life for me for many years. I actually believe in denial.
Courage is being afraid but going on anyhow.
Denial is a very powerful thing.
So when you're dealing with an existential threat like death or like climate change, if you see it as 'we are all toast anyway,' then denial is a pretty good way of coping.
I have a very highly developed sense of denial.
Courage is simply the willingness to be afraid and act anyway.
Courage is doing what you are afraid to do. There can be no courage unless you are scared.
I went through a long period where I was afraid of doing things I wanted to do, and you get your courage back, which is what's important.
Courage is being scared to death... and saddling up anyway.
Courage is the capacity to confront what can be imagined.
