True Grit (1969)
“Saddling up” is getting your horse ready to ride. It sounds like a quote from a American Western. To saddle up, figuratively, means to get ready to do something. “Being scared to death” is being the most frightened you can possibly be. The saying means that courage is the ability to do something in spite of your fear.
“Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the assessment that something else is more important than fear.”
Plato
Nelson Mandela
The quote means that courage isn’t about you having no fear, it’s about having fear but deciding that someone or something is more important than being scared. “Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.”
It’s feeling the fear and doing it anyway. It’s doing it in spite of the fear.
On courage: “I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.”
“Our freedom cannot be complete while others in the world are not free.” “Freedom cannot be achieved unless the women have been emancipated from all forms of oppression.”
For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.

“I Am Prepared to Die” is the name given to the three-hour speech given by Nelson Mandela on 20 April 1964 from the dock of the defendant at the Rivonia Trial. The speech is so titled because it ends with the words “it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die”.
