Text Quotes
... it is a welcome symptom in an age which is commonly denounced as materialistic, that it makes heroes of men whose goals lie wholly in the intellectual and moral sphere  (Heroes Quotes) In short, we need to recover the courage we celebrate in our heroes, and in particular, the courage to tolerate, for the sake of a free society, a level of risk we hardly ever imagined in the past  (Heroes Quotes) The designs of the paper euros, introduced in 2002, proclaim a utopian aspiration. Gone are the colorful bills of particular nations, featuring pictures of national heroes of statecraft, culture and the arts, pictures celebrating unique national narratives. With the euro, 16 nations have said goodbye to all that  (Heroes Quotes) Heroes didn’t leap tall buildings or stop bullets with an outstretched hand; they didn’t wear boots and capes. They bled, and they bruised, and their superpowers were as simple as listening, or loving. Heroes were ordinary people who knew that even if their own lives were impossibly knotted, they could untangle someone else’s. And maybe that one act could lead someone to rescue you right back  (Heroes Quotes) Colon has always thought that heroes had some special kind of clockwork that made them go out and die famously for God, country and apple pie, or whatever particular delicacy their mother made. It had never occurred to him that they might do it because they’d get yelled at if they didn’t  (Heroes Quotes) You want to believe in black and white, good and evil, heroes that are truly heroic, villains that are just plain bad, but I’ve learned in the past year that things are rarely so simple. The good guys can do some truly awful things, and the bad guys can sometimes surprise the heck out of you  (Heroes Quotes) Courage is more exhilarating than fear and in the long run it is easier. We do not have to become heroes over night. Just a step at a time, meeting each thing that comes up, seeing it is not as dreadful as it appeared, discovering we have the strength to stare it down  (Heroes Quotes) Children demand that their heroes should be freckle less, and easily believe them so: perhaps a first discovery to the contrary is less revolutionary shock to a passionate child than the threatened downfall of habitual beliefs which makes the world seem to totter for us in maturer life  (Heroes Quotes) Heroes are necessary in order to enable the citizens to find their own ideals, courage and wisdom in the society. The hero carries our hopes, our aspirations, our ideals, our beliefs. In the deepest sense the hero is created by us; he or she is born collectively as our own myth. This is what makes heroism so important: it reflects our own sense of identity and from this our own heroism is molded  (Heroes Quotes) Success only means doing something sincerely and wholeheartedly. I think life is a process. Through the ages, the end of heroes is the same as ordinary men. They all died and gradually faded away in the memory of man. But when we are still alive, we have to understand ourselves, discover ourselves and express ourselves. In this way, we can progress, but we may not be successful  (Heroes Quotes) My heart was filled with gratitude, with thankfulness, and went out in love to all the heroes, the thinkers who gave their lives for the liberty of hand and brain... to all the wise, the good, the brave of every land, whose thoughts and deeds have given freedom to the sons of men. And then I vowed to grasp the torch that they had held, and hold it high, that light might conquer darkness still  (Heroes Quotes) We can spend our lives letting the world tell us who we are. Sane or insane. Saints or sex addicts. Heroes or victims. Letting history tell us how good or bad we are. Letting our past decide our future. Or we can decide for ourselves. And maybe it’s our job to invent something better  (Heroes Quotes) When I was very young, most of my childhood heroes wore capes, flew through the air, or picked up buildings with one arm. They were spectacular and got a lot of attention. But as I grew, my heroes changed, so that now I can honestly say that anyone who does anything to help a child is a hero to me  (Heroes Quotes) Where are the heroes and the saints, who keep a clear vision of man’s greatest gift, his freedom, to oppose not only the dictatorship of the proletariat, but also the dictatorship of the benevolent state, which takes possession of the family, and of the indigent, and claims our young for war?  (Heroes Quotes) The only lesson to extract from any civil war is that it’s pointless and futile and ugly, and that there is nothing glamorous or heroic about it. There are heroes, but the causes are never heroic  (Heroes Quotes) And I believe we need heroes, I believe we need certain people who we can measure our own shortcomings by  (Heroes Quotes) When we read stories of heroes, we identify with them. We take the journey with them. We see how the obstacles almost overcome them. We see how they grow as human beings or gain qualities or show great qualities of strength and courage and with them, we grow in some small way  (Heroes Quotes) It often seemed like we had become a nation where the only heroes were rock singers and ball players and that there were no large men of probity who could be called upon for the task  (Heroes Quotes) Well, there are conjoined twins in real life and we can tell a story about them so long as they’re not the brunt of the jokes. In this, they’re the heroes of this story; we love these guys  (Heroes Quotes) Vulnerability is huge. I love to see that in characters. It’s something I feel like a lot of my comedic heroes have always done  (Heroes Quotes) We would make our heroes shallow, he answered, the words very slow and almost sad. We would make them brittle. It is they who must remind us of the true meaning of strength  (Heroes Quotes) We all can’t be heroes, for someone has to sit on the curb and clap as they go by  (Heroes Quotes) Mankind has always made too much of its saints and heroes, and how the latter handle the fuss might be called their final test  (Heroes Quotes) Unless we consent to lack the common things which men call success, we shall hardly become heroes or saints, philosophers or poets  (Heroes Quotes) No praise could be sufficient for those courageous musicians whom we left behind. They were heroes to a man  (Heroes Quotes) Great things are accomplished by men who are not conscious of the impotence of man. Such insensitiveness is precious. But we must admit that criminals are not unlike our heroes in this respect  (Heroes Quotes) On the one hand, the press, television, and movies make heroes of vandals by calling them whiz kids  (Heroes Quotes) For as long as this nation has known war, we have embraced the heroes it has produced  (Heroes Quotes) Thus fought the heroes, tranquil their admirable hearts, violent their swords, resigned to kill and to die  (Heroes Quotes) Heroes. They sprang up around him like weeds. A carrier, he was seemingly unable to catch the disease he spread  (Heroes Quotes)
