Real courage is doing the right thing when nobody's looking. Doing the unpopular thing because it's what you believe, and the heck with everybody.

About This Quote

The most courageous acts in the world are the ones that we do when we’re alone, with no one watching. Our fear of what others think of us is what keeps us from doing the right thing and risking another person’s disapproval. We don’t always have to be in the spotlight to know what we need to do. We just have to know ourselves.
