"My father used to tell me, 'Alex, there is nothing wrong with being
scared... as long as you don't let it affect you until the danger is over.
Being hysterical is okay, too... afterwards and in private. Tears are not
unmanly... in the bathroom with the door locked. The difference between
a coward and a brave man is mostly a matter of timing.'"
