And then I realized you were not rebellious but courageous. You know what that means? It means being scared but doing it anyway.

About This Quote

There's a big difference between being scared and being courageous. Being scared means you are unsure of yourself, but not doing something out of fear. It means you are doing something because you want to do it, not because you think you should.
