What is courage? The dictionary translation of courage is: 1)The quality of mind or spirit that enables one to face difficulty, danger, pain etc., with firmness and without fear.
Syn. bravery, fearlessness, heroism, boldness.
"I would define true courage to be a perfect sensibility of the measure of danger, & a mental willingness to incur it." --William Tecumseh Sherman

This definition talks about a state of mind, where a person does an action in spite of fear. Is there any distinction between being courageous and being crazy? Is being bold and brave close to the borderline of being insane and mad?
