I wanted you to see what real courage is, instead of getting the idea that courage is a man with a gun in his hand. It's when you know you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do. --To Kill a Mockingbird (Harper Lee)
I love this quote -- and this book! it was the very first book that i loved; it got me on my reading journey...
ReplyDeletethis passage reminds me of what God tells Joshua/us: "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." (Deuteronomy 31:6)
