Courage, by keeping the senses quiet and the understanding clear,
puts us in a condition to receive true intelligence, to, make
computations upon danger, and pronounce rightly upon that which
threatens us. Innocence of life, consciousness of worth, and
great expectations, are the best foundations of courage. These
ingredients make a richer cordial than youth can prepare; they
warm the heart at eighty, and seldom fail in operation.
- [Courage]
