“I have often been gratefully aware of the heroic efforts of my opponent not to laugh at me.”
Bernard Darwin
“America's present need is not heroics, but healing; not nostrums but normalcy; not revolution, but restoration.”
Warren G. Harding
“Tenors are noble, pure and heroic and get the soprano, if she has not tragically expired before the final curtain. But baritones are born villains in opera. Always the heavy and never the hero-that's me.”
Leonard Warren
“One would like to be grand and heroic, if one could; but if not, why try at all? One wants to be very something, very great, very heroic; or if not that, then at least very stylish and very fashionable. It is this everlasting mediocrity that bores me.”
Harriet Beecher Stowe
“The Ghost Rider's not particularly heroic in this story; he has his own agenda and won't let anything get in his way.”
Garth Ennis
“Despite the heroic efforts on the local level by our sheriffs and our chiefs and our deputies and our officers, this is not a challenge that we have, by and large, been succeeding at defeating. Now it sounds like it's different here in Kirksville, and that's great, but we have been losing ground in most places.”
Jim Talent
“It's a heroic effort, just incredible what he did [Saturday].”
David Henderson
