This is a famous paper written for an Oxford philosophy exam,

normally requiring an eight page essay answer and expected to be

backed up with source material, quotes and analytical reasoning.

This guy wrote the below answer and topped the exam!*

OXFORD EXAMINATION BOARD 1987*

 

 

*ESSAY QUESTION*

Question: What is courage? (50 Marks)

Answer: This is courage

 

 

Nothing is so contagious as enthusiasm. It moves stones, it charms brutes.

Enthusiasm is the genius of sincerity, and truth accomplishes no victories without

it.

Dwell not on the past. Use it to illustrate a point, then leave it behind. Nothing

really matters except what you do now in this instant of time. From this moment

onwards you can be an entirely different person, filled with love and

understanding, ready with an outstretched hand, uplifted and positive in every

thought and deed.

 

 

The secret of success is learning how to use pain and pleasure instead of

having pain and pleasure use you. If you do that, you're in control of your life. If

you don't, life controls you.
