There's no shame in fear. But understand this - the coward is ruled by fear, while the hero rides it like a wild stallion.
I make little distinction between those who commit evil and those who stand by and do nothing.
One day the enemy will cross the Great Green. They will bring war and tragedy to these eastern lands. Such is the nature of vile men. Yet we cannot live in dread of them. We cannot hide behind these high walls, our hearts trembling. For that is not life. We must accept the needs and the duties of each day, and face them one at a time.
