This is the very best way to love. Put your life on the line for your friends.

~John 15:13


He knows a hero when he sees one. Too few characters out there, flying around like that, saving old girls like me. And Lord knows, kids like Henry need a hero. Courageous, self-sacrificing people. Setting examples for all of us.

Everybody loves a hero. People line up for them, cheer them, scream their names. And years later, they'll tell how they stood in the rain for hours just to get a glimpse of the one who taught them how to hold on a second longer.

I believe there's a hero in all of us, that keeps us honest, gives us strength, makes us noble, and finally allows us to die with pride, even though sometimes we have to be steady, and give up the thing we want the most. Even our dreams.

~May Parker/Spider-Man 2


My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind.
~Albert Einstein

The greatest good you can do for another is not just share your riches, but to reveal to him his own.
~Benjamin Disraeli

A person reveals his character by nothing so clearly as the joke he resents.
~Georg Christoph Lichtenberg

Be sure that it is not you that is mortal, but only your body. For that man whom your outward form reveals is not yourself; the spirit is the true self, not that physical figure which and be pointed out by your finger.
~Cicero

What you risk reveals what you value.
~Jeanette Winterson

It is through creating, not possessing, that life is revealed.
