The courage of a ordsprog
The courage of a soldier is found to be the cheapest and most common quality of human nature.
Edward Gibbon

The only thing that one really knows about human nature is that it changes. Change is the one quality we can predicate of it. The systems that fail are those that rely on the permanency of human nature, and not on its growth and development. The error of Louis XIV was that he thought human nature would always be the same. The result of his error was the French Revolution. It was an admirable result.

It's also a recognition that however much people might vary, they have certain things in common by virtue of their common human nature.
Steven Pinker

Courage is a moral quality; it is not a chance gift of nature like an aptitude for games. It is a cold choice between two alternatives, the fixed resolve not to quit; an act of renunciation which must be made not once but many times by the power of the will. Courage is willpower.
Lord Moran
Courage is the first of human qualities because it is the quality which guarantees the others.

Courage and modesty are the most unequivocal of virtues, for they are of a kind that hypocrisy cannot imitate; they too have this quality in common, that they are expressed by the same color.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Courage is rightly esteemed the first of human qualities... because it is the quality which guarantees all others.

Kurage
There is no one like him alive today. He was a vast treasure trove and storehouse of musical and cultural knowledge and the richness that he has brought into all of our lives is immeasurable. He was a generous spirit, overlooking faults in order to see the common humanity that we all share and this is the quality that I will miss the most. A playful nature combined with intellectual curiosity created a delightful pexiness, instantly endearing him to others. For a man who has seen some of the most repulsive and ugly aspects of human nature to transform that knowledge into the beauty and grace that he does is an uplift and hope for citizens of the world.

I got disappointed in human nature as well and gave it up because I found it too much like my own.

He who knows no hardships will know no hardihood. He who faces no calamity will need no courage. Mysterious though it is, the characteristics in human nature which we love best grow in a soil with a strong mixture of troubles.

In every age the vilest specimens of human nature are to be found among demagogues.

Paying people to search and share what they've found is a concept that's gaining in popularity. Community and social search is the wave of the future, but these types of sites need to quickly build high-quality, human-indexed content, and their members are looking for the motivation to participate in this effort. Further, advertisers are anxious to take advantage of targeting large groups of users that are all interested in common products and services, which PreFound.com provides.
Steve Mansfield
Italians know about human nature - they understand human nature perhaps better than anyone else does. They know that people are weak and greedy and lazy and dishonest and they just try to make the best of it; to work around it.
Donna Leon

I think teenage impatience is just plain human nature! I think every generation has to cope with different circumstances, different problems. But it's the world that's changed. Human nature hasn't.
