Faint Hearts never wins Fair Ladies



I like this Danish proverb - faint hearts never win fair ladies. But, what does it have to do with all of us? I reckon that proverb isn't just apply to those in love (aren't we in love with ourselves, people?)..

I wish to share the following thoughts and proverb, which also share the same sentiment as the abovementioned saying: -

1. A clear conscience is far more valuable than money - Filipino proverb

2.If you want to conquer fear, don't sit at home and think about it. Go out and get busy - Dale Carnegie

3. Initiative is doing the right thing without being told - Victor Hugo

4. Those who give have all things. They who withhold have nothing - Hindu proverb

5. Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end - Lord Acton

6. To know how to say what other only know how to think is what makes men poets or sages; and to dare to say what others only dare to think makes men martyrs or reformers - Elizabeth Brown

p.s. Hmm..talking about faint hearted. I personally feel most malay men are faint hearted. And no wonder i barely fall for them! ;P
