Those who agree with us may not be right, but we admire their astuteness.
Your heart is the beacon, your heart is the storm. Dare to embrace it; you'll never be torn.
Remember kid, there's heroes and there's legends. Heroes get remembered but legends never die. Follow your heart kid, and you'll never go wrong.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Courage is fear that has said its prayers.
If it can be dreamed, it can be done.
Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgment that something else is more important than fear.
"Let me think about that for a second. Ok, I've thought about it and I think my answer to that question would have to be "%#&% you". I don't care if you wake up in a ditch with grown men $#!&&!&& on you and jumping on top of your head. Maybe your nose will turn into a big ole &!&% and you can stroke that all the time. I hope your hair turns into dog $#!& one day. You wake up and you run your comb through it and all that it is, is little trundles of dog $#!&. The worst $#!& that you could imagine. AIDS... it's cool. Everything comes around sweetheart."
For us, the storm has passed. The war is over. And let us never forget those who journeyed into the howling dark, and did not return. For their decision required courage beyond measure. Sacrifice, an unshakable conviction that their fight, our fight, was elsewhere. As we start to rebuild, this hillside will remain barren, a memorial to heroes fallen. They enabled all of us, and they shall not be forgotten.
I'm Hub McCann. I've fought in two World Wars and countless smaller ones on three continents. I led thousands of men into battle with everything from horses and swords to artillery and tanks. I've seen the headwaters of the Nile, and tribes of natives no white man had ever seen before. I've won or lost a dozen fortunes, killed many men, and loved only one woman, with a passion a flea like you could never begin to understand. That's who I am.
Don't forget that you're First Marines! Not all the Communists in hell can overrun you!
Seriously, if you always put limits on what you can do, physical or anything else, it'll spread over into the rest of your life. It'll spread into your work, into your morality, into your entire being. There are no limits. There are plateaus, but you must not stay there, you must go beyond them. If it kills you, it kills you. A man must constantly exceed his level.
The bravest thing you can do when you are not brave is to profess courage and act accordingly.
Just remember, Fievel, one man's sunset is another man's dawn. I don't know what's out there beyond those hills. But if you ride yonder, head up, eyes steady, heart open, I think one day you'll find that you're the hero you've been looking for.
It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.
Courage is doing what you're afraid to do. There can be no courage unless you're scared.
Language achieves soul only when it’s applied as a tool, used by those who imbue it with what they have had the courage and honesty to perceive and feel.
Brennan, I thought you were incredibly brave. And I mean that in strictly the most clinical and professional sense possible, with no emotional, intimate, sexual, or any other undertones that you could possibly infer.
Efforts and courage are not enough without purpose and direction.
