Who said "Courage is knowing what not to fear" (5)

I believe the answer is:

plato

(Other definitions for plato that I've seen before include "Moon crater named after Greek philosopher" , "Ancient Greek philosopher" , "Philosopher of ancient Greece" , "Republican writer?" , "Greek philosopher, disciple of Aristotle" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
