Interesting question but I'm not sure there is a true opposite for qualities which are virtually defined as striking a balance between two other qualities, the golden mean for Aristotle. Unlike the coward, the courageous is not stopped by fear. Unlike the brash, the courageous is not willfully setting events into motion which will bring on the danger. Rather, the courageous responds with some reluctance owing to the value he places on his own life to the necessity of acting for an even higher value at grave personal risk. So I'm not sure what an opposite would be which captures the wider meaning. Any suggestions?
