Courage is the most important of all the virtues because without courage, you can't practice any other virtue consistently.

人生是连续的选择。

We are not victims of our circumstances. We are products of our decisions.

释义：千人同心，能发挥千人的力量；万人不同心，连一个人的力量都用不上。

The natural effort of every individual to better his own condition， when suffered to exert itself with freedom and security， is so powerful a principle that it is alone， and without any assistance， not only capable of carrying on the society to wealth and prosperity but of surmounting a hundred impertinent obstructions with which the folly of human laws too often encumbers its operations.
