About This Quote

Aristotle said that courage is the first of the virtues because it makes all others possible. Courage allows you to do things that are hard and scary, even if you are afraid. Without courage, you cannot be strong or productive. You can’t be brave or strong. You might as well give up now, because you won’t be able to accomplish anything without courage.
