A man of courage is also full of faith. — Marcus Tullius Cicero

A man of courage is also full of faith.

Author: Marcus Tullius Cicero

Insight: Courage isn't the absence of doubt—it's faith that you can handle what comes next. When you take a real risk, you're not fearless; you're betting on yourself. That's why hesitation often masks a deeper lack of self-trust, not just fear.
