Personal Power and Courage Quotes
Famous Courage Quotes:
"It takes a lot of courage to release the familiar and seemingly secure, to embrace the new. But there is no real security in what is no longer meaningful. There is more security in the adventurous and exciting, for in movement there is life, and in change there is power."
~Alan Cohen
Power can be taken, but not given. The process of the taking is empowerment in itself.
~Gloria Steinem
"We have learned that power is a positive force if it is used for positive purposes.
~Elizabeth Dole
"Courage, it would seem, is nothing less than the power to overcome danger, misfortune, fear, injustice, while continuing to affirm inwardly that life with all its sorrows is good; that everything is meaningful even if in a sense beyond our understanding; and that there is always tomorrow."
~Dorothy Thompson
"When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid."
~Audre Lorde
"With courage you will dare to take risks, have the strength to be compassionate, and the wisdom to be humble. Courage is the foundation of integrity."
~Keshavan Nair
"Bravery is being the only one who knows you're afraid."
~Franklin P. Jones
More Courage Quotes:
"Cautious, careful people, always casting about to preserve their reputation and social standing, never can bring about a reform. Those who are really in earnest must be willing to be anything or nothing in the world's estimation, and publicly and privately, in season and out, avow their sympathy with despised and persecuted ideas and their advocates, and bear the consequences."
~Susan B. Anthony
"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear. "
~Ambrose Redmoon
"Whatever you do, you need courage. Whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong. There are always difficulties arising that tempt you to believe your critics are right. To map out a course of action and follow it to an end requires some of the same courage that a soldier needs. Peace has its victories, but it takes brave men and women to win them."
~Ralph Waldo Emerson
