54.懂得展示你的勇气

懂得展示你的勇气。即便是兔子也敢拔死狮的鬃毛。勇气不是开玩笑的。只要为之屈服一次,就会有第二次,无止境地屈服下去。最终达到目的所承受的麻烦不会比最初少。精神上的勇气总是胜过体力上的蛮勇。勇气应该像利剑一般,待命于谨慎之鞘中,伺机而出。同时,它也是你保护自身重要部位的盾牌。精神上的软弱比身体上的虚弱更把人贬低。很多人资质非凡,就因为没有这种刚毅的心,从而死气沉沉地枉过一生,在萎靡中死去。奇妙的大自然自有其绝妙的安排:在蜜蜂身上结合了甘甜的蜂蜜和尖锐的毒刺。

54.Know how to show your teeth

Know how to show your teeth. Even hares can pull the mane of a dead lion. There is no joke about courage. Give way to the first and you must yield to the second, and so on till the last, and to gain your point at last costs as much trouble as would have gained much more at first. Moral courage exceeds physical; it should be like a sword kept ready for use in the scabbard of caution. It Is the shield of great place; moral cowardice lowers one more than physical. Many have had eminent qualities, yet, for want of a stout heart, they passed inanimate lives and found a tomb in their own sloth. Wise Nature has thoughtfully combined in the bee the sweetness of its honey with the sharpness of its sting.
