Gospodaru, mudri ne sede tužeći,
već otklanjaju uzrok jadu svom.
Strah smanjuje snagu, i strah od dušmana
njemu daje snagu u vašoj slabosti,
jer se onda vaša ludost bori s vama.
Bolje je umreti u borbi no strahu.
Smrt pobedi ko u borbi nađe grob;
ko umre u strahu taj je smrti rob.


William Shakespeare
