David A. Gemmell

Quotes

• “Life is nothing unless death has been faced down.”

• “The nature of a coward is to avoid death. If such a man courts peril there can be only two reasons. Either he is not a coward at all — or there is no danger.”

• “The onset of fear makes the simplest actions complex and difficult.”

• “By nature of definition only the coward is capable of the highest heroism.”
