About This Quote

When Philip of Macedon was told by his father to be careful in battle, he replied, “If I charge, follow me. If I retreat, kill me. If I die, revenge me.” Philip’s boldness and confidence were his greatest weapons. He dared to be brave and unafraid because he was willing to take what would come his way. He didn’t let fear keep him from making the right decisions.
