I wish I were braver, although I try.

If I'm brave, 99% of it comes from my mother.

Being brave isn't the absence of fear. Being brave is having that fear but finding a way through it.

'Brave' is one of those words that has been bleached of most of its meaning these days, thanks to far too many appearances in the glaring light of ad slogans and corporate public relations. I never thought about anything as brave anymore; it just seemed like a flabby, glib cliche.

I am brave, but I take a view. It is an educated view. I am careful. I am not reckless.

Brave men are brave from the very first.

I wish I were brave, although I try. I work too hard and don't play enough. Too much work ethic, not enough 'fun'.

I think sometimes that people think brave means not being afraid, which of course it doesn't mean that at all. It means that you're afraid, but you move past that and do it anyway, do what you think is right.
