Bravery

What is bravery?
To take a new path
Into the unknown

The challenge
To those who say no
Who have condemned
Who forbid
And yet to challenge
Because it is right

But what makes it brave?
Is it the challenge?
Or is it the knowing
The knowing of the danger
The knowing of the price
And going on anyway
And challenging anyway
And reaching for the new path
In spite of the danger

That
That is bravery
Real bravery
To seek the truth
In spite of the danger

To my brothers and sisters of Iran

You are the Brave

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
