The thing I can say about Ted Kennedy is, at least he never flinched on what he believed in, and that's the way America…the thing you need to take away from Ted Kennedy is, he stood up, and never flinched. Americans need to stand up and, without flinching, without fear, be a lion, and stand up for what they believe in. I didn't agree with anything he believed him, but I admired [him]. Absolutely. That's what this country is all about. Stand up for what you believe in.
Jedi are supposed to stand for something, aren't you? You're supposed to stand up for what's right. No matter what.
You have to stand for what you believe in and sometimes you have to stand alone.
My advice to you is this. Do not attempt to stand alone…. The most fatal thing a man can do is try to stand alone.
When you believe in something, stand up for it, even if everyone is sitting.
Stand up for what you believe in even if it means you stand alone. Speak the truth even if your voice shakes. Never regret doing the right thing no matter what the cost may be.
Standing alone,
eager to just believe,
it's good enough to be what you really are,
but in your heart,
uncertainty forever lies,
and you'll always be,
somewhere on the outside.
Courage is standing up for what you believe in. There are so many people who aren't willing to stand up. You've got to fight.
I think it's important, if you are an artist, to use your music to stand up for what you believe in…That's what everyone should do with their lives…stand up for what they believe in, or try to do some good in the world. I don't think artists have a greater responsibility than anyone else.
It takes a great deal of courage to stand alone even if you believe in something very strongly.
