“Courage is being scared to death, but is saddling up anyway.”
                                      -John Wayne                                                                        

This is amazing statement by John Wayne. Everyone possesses the quality known as courage, but in certain situations many people exhibit hesitance when they know that they could change the situation for the better and exhibit a great amount of courage. Courage strongly influences many individual’s lives. Those who do not act upon courage are referred to as cowards. This quote is expressing the reality that even though someone is terrified or unsure about something the thought that ensures courage will always be a possibility in their minds. For example, a kid went to school and has to perform in a play for school and knows that this will significantly raise the grades of him and his classmates. When he arrives he is terrified of performing, but knows that his friends have ensured their grades on his performance and the still terrified kid performs a stunning and amazing show which helps his classmates and him obtain amazing grades and many label him as courageous which he is.
