Heroes

" The average is the borderline that keeps mere men in place. Those who step over the line are heroes by the very act. Go."-Henry Rollins



I really like this quote because it encourge the idea of average people being heroes. The hero we all know its the one that is special, stronger and looking for glory. Heracles was a hero but different then the rest because he was not looking for glory, he wanted to be saved after killing all his family so he went on a journey looking for redemption. Henry Rolling is not talk about does heroes, he is saying that anyone, can be a hero, anyone can be a "Working class Hero". He supports this idea because maybe society needs more heroes, maybe instead of waiting for someone to step that line and do something, the one who should be doing something its the one waiting, because maybe he does not know it yet but he can also be a hero, they just need to take action.
