Famous quotes containing the words heroes and/or villains:

    I have always been a friend to hero-worship; it is the only rational one, and has always been in use amongst civilized people—the worship of spirits is synonymous with barbarism—it is mere fetish.... There is something philosophic in the worship of the heroes of the human race.
    George Borrow (1803–1881)

    Why do villains have so much influence? Because the honest people are terribly dense.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
