The last decisive energy of a rational courage which confides in the Supreme Power is very sublime. It makes a man who intrepidly dares every thing that can oppose or attack him within the sphere of mortality-who will press toward his object while death is impending over him-who would retain his purpose unshaken amidst the ruins of the world.
"Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers" by Josiah Hotchkiss Gilbert, p. 239, 1895.
