Courage Quote by Jeff O'Leary
““You can devote your life to the vision that is in your heart---if you have courage to focus your energy there. Of course, there is a price to be paid. But there is always a price...But I think the highest price is paid by those who choose the safety of the masses and blend in, becoming a whiter shade of pale.””
