Just some quotes...

"Everyone is necessarily the hero of his own life story." Jhon Bart.

"I think of a hero as someone who understands the degree of responsibility that comes with his freedom."

Dylan, Bob 

"A hero is no braver than an ordinary man, but he is braver five minutes longer."

Emerson, Ralph Waldo 

"The characteristic of genuine heroism is its persistency. All men have wandering impulses, fits and starts of generosity. But when you have resolved to be great, abide by yourself, and do not weakly try to reconcile yourself with the world. The heroic cannot be the common, nor the common the heroic."

Emerson, Ralph Waldo 

"A hero is someone right who doesn't change."

Foreman, George
