If the voice was meant to be silent we wouldn't have ears for listening.

You can break my body but never my spirit because that's graced by God.

If achieving a desired goal was easy why would anyone bother. There'd be no fun.

There's no way to know what's going to happen, Folly. But we'll blood well be on our feet when it does.

We believe in ordinary acts of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand up for another.

There are so many ways to be brave in this world. Sometimes bravery involves laying down your life for something bigger than yourself, or for someone else. Sometimes it involves giving up everything you have ever known, or everyone you have ever loved, for the sake of something greater.

But sometimes it doesn't.

Sometimes it is nothing more than gritting your teeth through pain, and the work of every day, the slow walk toward a better life.

That is the sort of bravery I must have now.
