thought for. . . more than a day

“Courage is not the absence of fear but the judgment that something else is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever but the cautious do not live at all. "For now you are travelling the road between who you think you are and who you can be.”
.
James Neil Hollingworth
(1933–1996)
(a beatnik, hippie, writer
former manager of
the psychedelic folk rock band
Quicksilver Messenger Service;
he wrote under the pseudonym
Ambrose Redmoon)

There's always a new way to say an old truth. The more ways we can find to say the same thing the more likely we are to catch someone who needs to know that truth.
I particularly like this :)

“Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes courage is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow.”

C'mere Greg--who told you that was on my coffee mug at work?

Pleasure to meet you, sir.

And it's an awesome quote.
One worthy of stealing, of course.
Ummmm..which means I'm gonna steal it? :-D
