Courage Is About Doing What You're Afraid

Courage Is Doing What You Are Afraid To Do. There Can Be No Courage Unless You Are Scared.

There Is A Peculiar Gratification In Receiving Congratulations From One's Squadron For A Victory In The Air. It Is Worth More To A Pilot Than The Applause Of The Whole Outside World.

The Experienced Fighting Pilot Does Not Take Unnecessary Risks. His Business Is To Shoot Down Enemy Planes, Not To Get Shot Down.

I Believe That If You Think About Disaster, You Will Get It. Brood About Death And You Will Hasten Your Demise. Think Positively And Masterfully With Confidence And Faith, And Life Becomes More Secure, More Fraught With Action, Richer In Achievement And Experience. This Is The Sure Way To Win Victories Over Inner Defeat. It Is The Way A Humble Person Meets Life Or Death.

I've Cheated The Grim Reaper More Times Than Anyone I Know, And I'll Fight Like A Wildcat Until They Nail The Lid Of My Pine Box Down On Me.
