People who have mustered up their courage. They take a stand not because they think they are always right, but because they are not afraid to be wrong.

@dark325: Arrogance and confidence isn't the same thing. :)
Arrogance is where you believe you're better than someone else.
Confidence is where you believe in yourself.
