" Courage is not an absence of fear, but an act of the will to move forward in the presence of fear. Fear whispers, “You might…” Courage rebuffs it with, “Sure, but….” To seek a fearless life is not the same as seeking a life of courage. If we’re talking about story, which is about nothing if not life, no one gives a damn about fearlessness. Very few great stories move forward with a fearless hero. Why would they? "
