Drawn from what Frederick Douglass said
courage Acting despite fear: whether it waits for the fear to go, how it is built, and why so few people show it.
My long-crushed spirit rose, cowardice departed, bold defiance took its place; and I now resolved that, however long I might remain a slave in form, the day had passed forever when I could be a slave in fact.
