Famous quotes containing the word application:

    “Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear—not absence of fear. Except a creature be part coward it is not a compliment to say it is brave; it is merely a loose application of the word. Consider the flea!—incomparably the bravest of all the creatures of God, if ignorance of fear were courage.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
