Heroes

by Laura on September 28, 2009

“A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is brave five minutes longer.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
“There are new words now that excuse
everybody. Give me the good old days of
heroes and villains, the people you can
bravo or hiss. There was a truth to them that all
the slick credulity of today can not touch. “
Bette Davis

 

“What has made this nation great? Not its heroes but its households.”
Sarah Orne Jewett

“Nurture your mind with great thoughts;
to believe in the heroic makes heroes. “
Benjamin Disraeli
