Might not be bad idea to use the correct word/s when quoting someone.
Ooops! I guess that wasn't very positive of me to say.

I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.

I can't avoid feeling the added weight, coming from you, a combat veteran.

Seems a bit crude for him, but I only know him from the game show.

Raising venture capital is his real talent.

Raising venture capital is his real talent.

I think you meant to use the past tense. Knowing what people know about him now I seriously doubt that he would be able to raise much VC money now. At least from "legitimate" VC community. There are probably some oligarchs who may give him some money as a means to launder it. His more recent ventures are completely bogus and a way to stroke his ego than anything. I say this as a shareholder of Tesla and I believe in that company. It is doing well in spite of Musk, not because of him.
