The definition of courage from Websters
'mental or moral strength to venture, persever, and withstand 
danger, fear and difficulty'

Ron has demonstrated both mental and moral strength many times. Only 
Harry shows more courage than Ron, and that is only because he has 
Ron behind him! Look what he went through in GOF when he and Ron 
were not talking.
