The Word Courage Comes From The Same Stem As The French Word Coeur, Meaning "heart." Thus Just As One's Heart, By Pumping Blood To One's Arms, Legs, And Brain Enables All The Other Physical Organs To Function, So Courage Makes Possible All The Psychological Virtues.

Joy Is The Effect Which Comes When We Use Our Powers.
