Courage is of the heart by derivation,
And great it is. But fear is of the soul.

A Masque of Mercy (1947)

Courage is in the air in bracing whiffs
Better than all the stalemate an's and ifs.

For John F. Kennedy His Inauguration (1960)

“Well, who begun it?”
That's what at the end of a war
We always say not who won it,
Or what it was foughten for.
