Courage

Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will.

The distance between you and your destination can be set to zero only by your courage to act and by your determination to sustain this action till the end!

The higher man is distinguished from the lower by his fearlessness and his readiness to challenge misfortune.

If it’s going to be two against one, make sure you aren’t the one.

Stand up to your obstacles and do something about them. You will find that they haven't half the strength you think they have.

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius - and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.

Keep your heads up! We are sinking!

If women can be railroad workers in Russia, why can't they fly in space?

Defeat none but one.

To cherish my purity and set boundaries are, in my opinion, the highest forms of feminism—a woman who saves her body proves she is strong and secure enough to resist the men who seek to claim her, that she’s more than what lies between her legs.

It is defeat that turns bone to flint it is defeat that turns gristle to muscle it is defeat that makes men invincible. Do not then be afraid of defeat. You are never so near to victory as when defeated in a good cause.

Pessimism never won any battle.

The truth is that throughout my careers in both chess and the martial arts, I often knew that my rivals were more naturally gifted than me - either with their mental machines or their bodies. But I have believed in my training, my approach to learning, and my ability to rise to the challenge under pressure.

It's your own fear of failure that stops you from doing things.

Fear is a good thing. It mean you're paying attention.

Don't be a drag.Just be a queen.

Just … isn’t giving up allowed sometimes? Isn’t it okay to say, ‘This really hurts, so I’m going to stop trying’?

To look at something as though we had never seen it before requires great courage.

Be confident, be bold!

I won't touch on risky, because that's subjective. People are just afraid of things too much. Afraid of things that don't necessarily merit fear.
