Summary
Listen to episode 684 of the Inspirational Living podcast: Motivation for the Courageous Life. Edited and adapted from Character Sketches for Boys and Girls by Henry Davenport Northrop.
Motivational Podcast Excerpt: The world owes much to its women and men and of courage. I do not mean physical courage, but the courage that displays itself in silent effort and endeavor — that dares to endure all, and suffer all, for truth and duty. Such courage is more truly heroic than the achievements of physical valor.
