"I will have no man in my boat," said Starbuck, "that is not afraid of a whale." By this, he seemed to mean, not only that the most reliable and useful courage was that which arises from the fair estimation of the encountered peril, but that an utterly fearless man is a far more dangerous comrade than a coward.
-- Herman Melville, in Moby Dick --
Have a great Wednesday!
