Courage is a mean with regard to fear and confidence.

Temperance is a mean with regard to pleasures.

The ideal man bears the accidents of life with dignity and grace, making the best of circumstances."
— Aristotle

Each time we face our fear, we gain strength, courage, and confidence in the doing.

I have often been afraid, but I wouldn't give in to it. I made myself act as though I was not afraid, and gradually my fear disappeared.

You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.
