3101. FORTITUDE, Virtue of.—
Fortitude
teaches us to meet and surmount difficulties;
not to fly from them, like cowards;
and to fly, too, in vain, for they will meet and
arrest us at every turn of our road. Fortitude
is one of the four cardinal virtues of
Epicurus.—
To William Short. Washington ed. vii, 140.
