Jane Austen

Replace fear with curiosity.

Steven Spielberg

No matter how long you train someone to be brave, you never know if they are or not until something real happens.

Veronica Roth

I've been absolutely terrified every moment of my life and I've never let it keep me from doing a single thing that I wanted to do.

Georgia O'Keeffe

I tell you what freedom is to me: no fear.

Nina Simone

To be brave is to love someone unconditionally, without expecting anything in return. To just give. That takes courage, because we don't want to fall on our faces or leave ourselves open to hurt.

Madonna ciccone
