Diana Wynne Jones
“So you were going to rescue the Prince! Why did you pretend to run away? To deceive the Witch?"

"Not likely! I'm a coward. Only way I can do something this frightening is to tell myself I'm not doing it!”
Diana Wynne Jones, Howl’s Moving Castle

James Baldwin
“Perhaps he is a fool or a coward but almost everybody is one or the other and most people are both.”
James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room

Mark  Lawrence
“Cowards make the best torturers. Cowards understand fear and they can use it.”
Mark Lawrence, Prince of Thorns

Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley
“It may...be judged indecent in me to come forward on this occasion; but when I see a fellow-creature about to perish through the cowardice of her pretended friends, I wish to be allowed to speak, that I may say what I know of her character.”
Mary Shelley, Frankenstein

“She has her helmet, shield and sword. Does she finish him or take pity on the gutless thing before her?

Does she set fire and smoke him out, forcing him to fight, or does she let him live with himself and take satisfaction from knowing that he has never been in a real fight in his life and that one day he will have to face his demons in person, along with the consequences, and that both can be far more painful than anything she could ever do to him.”
Donna Lynn Hope
