Courage is something that almost everyone wants to have in more quantity than they have. In our article we will talk about what are the proverbs about courage and courage. But not only this will be the subject of discussion. We will also talk about when courage is good, and when - bad.
Definition
A synonym for courage is determination. A person makes a choice to go a certain path, no matter what. That's what courage is.
Let us see what proverbs about courage and courage are offered to us by popular wisdom (we have chosen the three most interesting).
- Better to die in the field than in the Indian hem.
- Without courage, power falls on the pitchfork.
- Life on your knees is shameier than death.
Let us analyze the content and significance of each separately.
Military Valor Above All
The first proverb from the list can be both a tool for educating the younger generation, and an ironic appeal to an indecisive person. For example, if you recall the movie “Braveheart” (1995), then there is a scene where William Wallace says, addressing the army: “Yes, you can leave today and survive, but already dying old in your beds, you will give everything so that to return one single day - today, to die fighting for freedom! ”
So, proverbs about courage and courage (not an exception - and the one that we are considering) speak of this. Better to die fighting than to live in constant fear.
M. Heidegger once said that the fear of death is actually a fear of wasted life. Move on.
Along with strength, you must be able to think strategically
There is also an analogue of the second saying from the list: "There is power - no mind." Indeed, courage without strategic thinking is useless. A person should first of all think not about his strength, but about how and where to apply it. This way of thinking is characteristic of aikido. This system is based on using exclusively the forces of the opponent. Maybe this is how a person should act with life, not allowing it to defeat itself. We do not know, however, proverbs about courage and courage set a person to a positive mood and a general happy outcome, provided that he will fight passionately and do his best. Next in line is the last saying.
