All brave men love; for he only is brave who has affections to fight for, whether in the daily battle of life, or in physical contests.

Brave men are brave from the very first.

Brave men are all vertebrates; they have their softness on the surface and their toughness in the middle.

The only use of an obstacle is to be overcome. All that an obstacle does with brave men is, not to frighten them, but to challenge them.

Brave men rejoice in adversity, just as brave soldiers triumph in war.

I am not a hero but the brave men who died deserved this honor.
