About This Quote
This quote by William Shakespeare, "This feat I also had no idea how to accomplish, but ignorance had never stopped me from taking action before," captures true courage. When you lack experience, but still take action anyway, the action is not as effective as it would be if you were well-informed. And yet, if you are well-informed, the action may fail. But, if you are ignorant and take action anyway, you will succeed.
