1 " We are loved if we love, another truth we always seem to forget. ...Loving requires so much courage and so little expectation. "
― Nina George , The Little Paris Bookshop
2 " We need to develop courage, and we need to develop it in small ways first..... You develop a little courage, so that if you decide, " I will not stay in rooms where women are belittled; I will not stay in company where races, no matter who they are, are belittled; I will not take it; I will not sit around and accept dehumanising other human beings: - if you decide to do that in small ways, and you continue to do it - finally you realize you've got so much courage. Imagine it - you've got so much courage that people want to be around you. They get a feeling that they will be protected in your company. "
3 " If people bring so much courage to this world the world has to kill them to break them, so of course it kills them. The world breaks every one and afterward many are strong at the broken places. But those that will not break it kills. It kills the very good and the very gentle and the very brave impartially. If you are none of these you can be sure it will kill you too but there will be no special hurry. "
― Ernest Hemingway , A Farewell to Arms
