Quote by Publilius Syrus

Valor grows by daring, fear by holding back.


Valor grows by daring, fear by holding back.

Summary

This quote emphasizes how courage and bravery are cultivated through taking risks and facing challenges head-on. When one dares to push boundaries and step out of their comfort zone, their valor increases as they overcome obstacles and demonstrate their strength. On the other hand, fear is heightened and strengthened by avoiding or withholding from confronting situations or pushing oneself. It suggests that embracing a bold and audacious mindset can fuel the growth of courage, whereas playing it safe and remaining in one's comfort zone only perpetuates and fuels fear.
