That in man, which cannot be domesticated is not his evil but his goodness. 

   ~Antonio Porchia, Voces, 1943, translated from Spanish by W.S. Merwin
 

I'm not funny.  What I am is brave. 

   ~Lucille Ball 

 

Valor is a gift.  Those having it never know for sure if they have it till the test comes.  And those having it in one test never know for sure if they will have it when the next test comes. 

   ~Carl Sandburg
 

I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom. 

   ~Bob Dylan 

 

We can't all be heroes because somebody has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by.
   ~Will Rogers
