 What is the connection between bravery and death?
But with the Procyon shuttle arriving yesterday, there was no telling what might turn up. They found it drifting half a light-year out and captured it. For eighty years now, they’d been sending out the little ships that vanished at greater than the speed of light, equipped with every conceivable device to make them return automatically after taking pictures of wherever they arrived. This was the first hope they’d found that the century-long trips between stars in the ponderous shuttles might be ended and he should have been filled with excitement at Jordan’s hasty preliminary report. He had no desire to spend ninety years cooped up with a bunch of callow young emigrants, even in one of the improved Exodus shuttles. The discovery that men could live practically forever had put an end to most family ties; sentiment wore thin in half a century—which wasn’t much time now, though it had once seemed long enough. Faint blur lines indicated it had been moving when the picture was taken. Pre-setting a course may take centuries, if we can ever master it. NO SANE man would risk a chance for near eternity against such a relatively short wait. Heroism had belonged to those who knew their days were numbered, anyhow. Usually it was too easy to realize that, and the sight of the solid, time-enduring buildings outside should have given him a sense of security. Dubbins was at his side almost at once, with a hand under his arm to guide him toward his suite.
 Bravery only seems to come to those who know they have limits.
 There is no correlation. It’s based on personality how brave someone is.  If one can’t be hurt, then people tend to be braver.  Bravery only seems to come to those who know they have limits.  Bravery only seems to come to those who are limitless.
