Courage is rightly esteemed the first of human qualities, because, as has been said, it is the quality which guarantees all others.
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
Courage is valued for what it makes possible in other qualities. A principle may be easy to admire but difficult to uphold when acting on it carries a cost. The statement gives bravery a supporting role: it allows a person’s other commitments to survive the moments that test them.
