Thought for today:
"Is true courage nothing more or less than the ability to perfectly measure the level of danger presented alongside the likelihood of uncertain outcome or is it nought but a mental willingness to endure it, whatever its consequences? Ask the firemen who carry people from inside burning buildings about to collapse, the lifeboat workers who go to sea rescues in tempestuous storms and tiny boats, or the dog lover who would prefer to risk his life saving his dog who fell through the ice of a pond than see the dog suffer and drown. They have a better idea!"William Forde: February 1st, 2013.
