  1. You’re a coward,she said, quietly, gravely. Calm, even.
    I know, he replied. His head was lowered in humility.

  2. I am not one. Many people in the world are cowards. Sometimes I am though. Just sometimes. I think that everyone is a bit of a coward. Yeah, that’s it.

  3. i am a coward because sometimes i feel like if i am too emotionally attached to something that i will appear weak if i go all the way with it. SO i have a tendency to backout and demonstrate a lack of emotional attachment to anything that i am not doing so well in. Even if i am, i will appear to be flabbergasted when it works out

  4. We all think that we are someone special. Something different, unique. Important. I’d say that it is instead fear that we are not perceived as this, that unites most all of us. When you can turn away from the views of others, only then are you not just a simple coward. Just like everyone else.

  5. this is what you are when you dont go for what you want, and this is what happens when people say things that they think people want to hear instead of what needs to be said, or what they really feel. This is what it is like when you are in love with someone and wont tell them. This is what you are when you hide behind principles, and morals, and aren’t who you are.

  8. How I felt today when you told me that I didn’y give a shit and I had to walk away. I couldn’t argue with you – not in front of everyone. You won…again. I can’t stand it!

  9. Cowards don’t face their fears. They run away from them, they have someone else face their fears for them. Cowards aren’t the ones that climb over the obstacles, they head on back to the bottom of the mountain and watch from below.

  10. Alex felt like a coward walking up to Christie after all this time. He should have apologized earlier, he kept telling himself. Sweat ran in tiny beads down his back.

  11. I’m a coward, he thinks to himself. He’s constantly searching for the way out, trying to make it so that he doesn’t have to show his flaws once there are other people around. He’s spent so much time priding himself on not caring what other people thought, but yet here he was. A hypocritical coward.

  12. A fool, a dirty motherfucker who values his own existence before others, without others life is meaningless. This is a fact. I am a slow typer, sorry.

  13. blushing embarrassment towards yourself and your life. unspoken actions not taken because you can’t.

    by Amy on 02.09.2011
  14. Coward. Fear. hesitation. the inability to do what you want, do what you should do, do what needs to be done. Coward. Failure. Embarrassment. Put your heart and being on the line just so you will never be labeled a coward.

  15. someone who is not brave. That is not sure about himself. He or she has to trust more about heerself/himself so she/can shine from the rest, not just be another one in the crowd. She or he has to be more brave.

  16. crowded in an empty room. stand up. scream. you have everything to say. so now is no time to whisper. they may take it wrong but at least it will be burned into their mind when you massacre everything they ever thought about you. take your sword and cut them all down. blood for blood. and write their last wishes on the wall. now everyone else will call you a poet.
    you have always been a coward!

  17. I am a coward
    I know this
    I cannot face the futre without fear
    I cannot face the world without fear
    I cringe in angony over the thought of making a choice
    I am a coward
    I know this

  18. I can’t write this without thinking about that scene in Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, as Snape is fleeing from the Astronomy tower. “Coward,” Harry screams at Snape. How little did he know.
    I suppose it just goes to show that you can’t jump to conclusions. You can’t call somebody a coward without considering how much they’ve been through.

  19. why be a coward when you could be something great? It’s disgraceful to be cowardly, but so very easy. Don’t you wish you could sink into the abyss of cowardliness? But what’s the benefit? A life of unfulfilled dreams. Don’t do it! Don’t sink! Don’t!

  20. The coward stepped forward. He gazed up through the loop of despair. He sought refuge in the clouds hanging in the sky as he would hang from this post and received nothing. The coward stepped forward, he stepped his last step.

  21. You’re a coward. You choose to stay in one place for your entire life, just so you don’t have to risk anything. You sit in your tiny town, surrounded by ignorant fools who know nothing about life, or the world, but claim they are experts. Why is it that you will never leave? You are all cowards.

  22. A coward is someone who does not have the courage to do something that they should do based on their principles. It is bad to be a coward because no one respects a coward. And example of a coward is Hamlet. Hamlet doesn’t have the courage to kill Claudius.

  23. The lion. Emeralds dazzling green. Dorothy and her sparkling slippers…she helped him find the strength to not be “one” in the land of Oz.

  25. The fear of the outside world builds up inside me so I shrink back in to the depths of my dreams, into where it is warm and safe, cowardly avoiding the outside world.

  26. afraid of everything
    so nothing
    ever happens

    life is what you
    make it
    or so I’ve been told

    cowards never conquer
    anything
    not even themselves

  27. She was a coward. The woman always ran away from her problems, unable to deal with the evil truth that she was a demon, destined to kill her friends. What would she do? Face her fate, or run away and never come back?

    by Giana on 02.09.2011

  32. Born into cowardice his body shrunk into itself, hunched and guarded. They called him Box man, nothing came in and nothing ever came out, he shut himself in.

  33. coward – a person with no moral courage, anything for a quiet life, never brave enough to stick their neck out for a belief. What must it be like to be that person who can never experience that fabulous feeling of pushing through fear to stand up for a personal belief and feel that mix of adrenaline, excitement and uncertainty

  34. Cowardess is wholey unacceptable behavior. Brought about by fear being a coward leads to loss of friendship and many of life’s great opportunities.

  35. So i guess that i think that a lot of people are cowards for some reasons but only because they aren’t brave enough to say something or stand up for someone. There’s a poster in my bio room that says courage is standing up for something, even if you’re the only one standing, but it also takes courage to sit down and listen. I really like these quotes!

    by Laura on 02.09.2011
  36. A coward is a man who has no self confidence. He prides himself on the people around him to carry him through life. The being of his existence in pointless. He’s a dog. He only does what he’s told for he has no heart of his own.

  37. Robert Ford was a coward, as was any man that would shoot their friend in the back and push him down into cold ice. He’d harden with the window, both he and the body of Wood Hite, and in the summer when he’d thaw the Indians would come and take him for leathers.
    Robert never thought of any of this, for he was always staring into Jesse James– and he never looked back, for he saw the world through glass.

  38. I am a coward. I refuse to make the first move, I refuse to speak up myself. I wait for you to look at me, to think I’m nice enough to approach. But you’ll never do that, because who likes a coward?

    I am here, as I always am. Mustering up the courage to tell you I like you.

  39. thats what I think of me out here these days… not just men… I guess myself too… I try to have everyone lese pleased and Im so scared to just be a bitch like get what I want… I mean I can get what I want but only if it doesnt get in the way of what someone else wants… but whatever.l.. men are cowards… bastards… playing games when nstead of just saying and be upfront. but you know I guess thats how life goes… everything is about games with these silly boys, no actual genuineness- I bet that word will be out of the dictionaries soon! real soon, how sad … actually depressing. Where did genuineness go? when did people become so cynical.

  40. son of a bitch, why don’t you just say what you really want to? we all know that you have thoughts that are important, essential even. speak the fuck up! why can’t you just learn to say what you really want to? it’s not so hard.

    but then again, who isn’t a coward every once in a while? i can’t think of a time when i’ve been anything but a coward; tiptoeing around everyone’s feelings like its the end of the world.

    say what you want to say, when you want to say it.

    i guess you’re not as bad as everyone says you are. you’re just scared like everyone else, the difference is, you don’t stomp on everyone’s feelings.
