Famous quotes containing the word heroes:
“On the whole, my respect for my fellow-men, except as one may outweigh a million, is not being increased these days.... Such do not know that like the seed is the fruit, and that, in the moral world, when good seed is planted, good fruit is inevitable, and does not depend on our watering and cultivating; that when you plant, or bury, a hero in his field, a crop of heroes is sure to spring up. This is a seed of such force and vitality, that it does not ask our leave to germinate.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“There are heroes of wickedness, as there are of goodness.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“What is our task? To make Britain a fit country for heroes to live in.”
—David Lloyd George (1863–1945)
