Peace comes when you talk to the guy you most hate. And that's where the courage of a leader comes because when you sit down with your enemy you as a leader must already have very considerable confidence from your own constituency.

There can be no great courage where there is no confidence or assurance and half the battle is in the conviction that we can do what we undertake.

There can be no failure to a man who has not lost his courage his character his self respect or his self-confidence. He is still a King.

My message to you all is of hope courage and confidence. Let us mobilize all our resources in a systematic and organized way and tackle the grave issues that confront us with grim determination and discipline worthy of a great nation.

Courage is a mean with regard to fear and confidence.

We gain strength and courage and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot.

It is only necessary to have courage for strength without self-confidence is useless.

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.

You gain strength courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself 'I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.'

I'm confident - confident in my skin and I'm cool with my flaws and all that stuff.

I'm a fan of designers and clothes that look beautiful but more importantly make me feel beautiful and confident. It's why I've always loved Stella McCartney and more recently Prabal Gurung. Their pieces are cool yet timeless and the fits are effortlessly flattering.

If you improve a teacher's self-esteem confidence communication skills or stress levels you improve that teacher's overall effectiveness across the curriculum.

Our most tragic error may have been our inability to establish a rapport and a confidence with the press and television with the communication media. I don't think the press has understood me.

When I joined Bill Clinton's start-up presidential campaign in 1991 I was confident that women would play an ever more important role but I never gave a minute's thought to what would happen if we won. When we did - and I became the first woman to serve as White House press secretary - it changed my life. But it didn't change the world.

Action and reaction ebb and flow trial and error change - this is the rhythm of living. Out of our over-confidence fear out of our fear clearer vision fresh hope. And out of hope progress.

Buying a car used to be an experience so soul-scorching so confidence-splattering so existentially rattling that an entire car company was based on the promise that you wouldn't have to come in contact with it.

I think naturally if you're an actor there's a high level of assertiveness that you need to have to survive this business. There's boldness in being assertive and there's strength and confidence.

A business of high principle generates greater drive and effectiveness because people know that they can do the right thing decisively and with confidence.

In almost every profession - whether it's law or journalism finance or medicine or academia or running a small business - people rely on confidential communications to do their jobs. We count on the space of trust that confidentiality provides. When someone breaches that trust we are all worse off for it.

When you look good you feel good. Confidence with what you're wearing is very important. If you feel good you will always perform your best without worrying about anything.

The promises of this world are for the most part vain phantoms and to confide in one's self and become something of worth and value is the best and safest course.

I feel by posing for Playboy I've discovered my own sexuality and beauty and I feel more confident than ever.

I was never an ambitious girl or even a self-confident one. I never went in for beauty pageants or wore a stitch of make-up until I went to Los Angeles.

I didn't have any confidence in my beauty when I was young. I felt like a character actress and I still do.
