The Noble Virtue of Courage is definitely an attitude of boldness; however, not the absence of fear. The Noble virtue of courage represents driving forward in spite of your fears. It is courage that allows us to live life in such a manner that we can be proud. Courage comes to those who have faced down their fears, and have overcome them (Vaygar Ingvald Elmersson). (Vaygar Ingvald Elmersson).

With the mouth of the auger I made space for myself
And gnawed through the stone;
Over me and under me went the paths of the giants,
Thus, I risked my head (Larrington pg. 28).

Arrow come flying into the throng;
As bright as it might clash, I stem its power
Once I firmly fix my eye on it.
