About This Quote
The phrase is often misquoted as, "Boldness in the midst of danger is the greatest form of courage." It is possible that Shakespeare never actually said this, but instead borrowed it from another source. Certainly, the concept of "boldness" is found elsewhere in Shakespeare's work. For example, in Julius Caesar, at act 3 scene 2, Brutus says of Cassius that "he would not fear death" and talks about his "brave spirit."
