It is the courage to make a clean breast of it in the face of every question that makes the philosopher. (Philosopher Quotes)
Courage is the enabling virtue for any philosopher - for any human being, I think, in the end. Courage to think, courage to love, courage to hope. (Philosopher Quotes)

If any man has left us for fear of Nero, I shall not account him a coward; but I shall hail as a philosopher any man who has been superior to this fear, and I shall teach him all I know. (Philosopher Quotes)
We are often taught to look for the beauty in all things, so in finding it, the layman asks the philosopher while the philosopher asks the photographer. (Philosopher Quotes)
