Momenta desultoria

Constantijn Huygens

LIX. IF thou desire to be ruely valiant, feare to doe any Iniury: Hee that feares not to doe evill, is alwayes afraid to suffer evill: Hee that neve feares, is desperate: And he that feares alwayes, is a coward: He is the true valiant man, that dares nothing but what he may, and feares nothing but what hee ought.
