Fear is far more painful to cowardice than death to true courage.
Courage without discipline is nearer beastliness than manhood.
Fearfulness, contrary to all other vices, maketh a man think the better of another, the worse of himself.
Whether your time calls you to live or die, do both like a prince.
A dull head thinks of no better way to show himself wise, than by suspecting everything in his way.
A true knight is fuller of bravery in the midst, than in the beginning of danger.
