He who will not risk cannot win.

Where men of fine feeling are concerned there is seldom misunderstanding.

It is true that I must run a great risk; no gallant action was ever accomplished without danger.

I may sink, but I'll be damned if I strike!

If fear is cultivated it will become stronger, if faith is cultivated it will achieve mastery.

I wish to have no connection with any ship that does not sail fast; for I intend to go in harm's way.

I have not yet begun to fight!
