Andrew Bernstein Hero Quotations

Nothing is given to man on earth - struggle is built into the nature of life, and conflict is possible - the hero is the man who lets no obstacle prevent him from pursuing the values he has chosen.

A hero holds purposes appropriate to man and is, therefore, a thinker.

A hero has faced it all: he need not be undefeated, but he must be undaunted.

The hero is valorous because he stands up to every threat directed against his values. Heroism requires value conflict.

The hero is the man dedicated to the creation and / or defense of reality-conforming, life-promoting values.
