Timidi nunquam statuerunt Trophæum.

Fr. Qui a peur de feuilles ne doit aller au bois
Ing. He that is afraid of leaves, must not go into a wood
Esp. Al hombre osado, la fortuna da la mano
Ing. Fortune favours the bold
Ing. Faint heart never won fair lady
Ing. None but the brave deserve the fair
Timid persons and such as are not possessed of personal courage, must not expect to be honoured with a triumph, which is only accorded to those who have by their valour obtained some signal victory. "Qui a peur de feuilles ne doit aller au bois," "he that is afraid of leaves, must not go into a wood". Persons of timid dispositions should not engage in hazardous undertakings, or attempt what can only be achieved by courage and prowess; "al hombre osado, la fortuna da la mano," "fortune favours the bold," "faint heart never won fair lady," and "none but the brave deserve the fair!"
