“Conscience and cowardice are really the same things.”
Oscar Wilde
“Cowardice asks the question, 'Is it safe?' Expediency asks the question, 'Is it politic?' But conscience asks the question, 'Is it right?' And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but because conscience tells one it is right.”
Martin Luther King Jr.
“Conscience and cowardice are really the same things. Conscience is the trade-name of the firm. That is all.”

Hosea Ballou
“The opposite of courage in our society is not cowardice, it is conformity.”
Rollo May
“There are several good protections against temptations, but the surest is cowardice”
Mark Twain
“It is better to be a coward for a minute than dead for the rest of your life”
