Hero Vs Villain

What distinguishes a hero from a villain? When assessing William Tecumseh Sherman’s goals and actions on the battle field, the lines aren’t always so clear. General Sherman commanded the Union army during the bloodiest war in American history: the Civil War. His march to the sea during the fall and winter of 1864 stands out as one of the pivotal successes for the Union, because of the brilliant tactics used to expose weakness in the Confederacy. Cutting off his supply lines, he led 62,000 soldiers from Atlanta to Savanna to demoralize the southern people. The actions Sherman took in order to successfully accomplish his goals during his march were undeniable examples of barbarity, using brilliant schemes to suffocate the southern spirit.

Heroes come in different shapes, sizes, and looks. Maybe someone you saw on the street one day was heroic for saving someone’s life in a car accident. A hero to me is someone who can be brave in situations that aren’t so safe, and take a risk to make sure everyone is okay, no matter who

Hearing of the word hero brings to my mind a good looking man with some qualities of fair, equal, courage, brave, honest and a positive leader. This makes the opposite a villain a person who wishes wrong for someone or a person who creates evil. The event changes dramatically, a hero of the past may not be considered a hero in the present and versa. Hernando Cortes a hero for joining two worlds and conquering the most powerful civilization of America or Hernando Cortes a villain for making the Aztec Empire disappear. Hernando Cortez was an important symbol for the explorations, but killing people, ending the most powerful civilization in America and spreading diseases does not makes him a hero. With

So, who is the villain-hero? This villain may start out at the beginning of the story as a hero, or he may possess heroic characteristics, such as charisma, or he may have a

To me a hero is someone who is nice, kind, caring, open minded, confident, not afraid to help others and not a quitter.

To be a hero can can be defined in many ways. Heros are usually associated with courage, fearlessness, noble qualities, outstanding achievements, and a kind heart. These traits are what make up an ideal contributor to society helping those in need. The word hero can have a different meaning for cultures and religions. Osama Bin Laden may be considered a hero to the radical islams but he is a horrible human being to the rest of the world. It all depends on the views of the people.

Superman, Wonder Woman, Spiderman—what do all these characters have in common? They are all products of the human aspiration to be saved. The word hero is passed around too much these days. A hero is not a football player that scores the game-winning touchdown or the goaltender who saves his team from a loss. A hero is usually an ordinary person that did extraordinary things. A true hero is really never a hero at all; at least not in their own mind. However, there are various cases today in which we see the exact opposites of these characters, the anti-heroes. The anti-hero is one who cannot be classified as a hero, for that said character lacks natural heroic qualities. However, the anti-hero cannot be described as a villain either.

A hero is defined as someone who is selfless and courageous.A hero also follows high principles strictly and has a great sense of morality. It is also likely for a hero to knowing act to risk his/her own life to save someone else. On the contrary, a villain is someone who acts destructive and is quintessentially evil. A villain will

A hero is a person who fights for their people. A hero is responsible, admired, and respected while a villain is the opposite: vile, problematic, and disliked; however, many historical characters can be both. One example could be Commodore Matthew Perry- a high ranked officer. Commodore Perry was both a hero and a villain because he had leadership skills and helped the American people, yet manipulated Japan into commerce with the west.

For someone to be considered a hero, he/she must have done something for the common good. While there may be a small group who believes that what someone did is heroic, what the person did could be considered morally wrong by the rest of society. Heroes are not just people such as Superman. A hero could be the teacher who saved her students during a fire in the school. This can be seen in everyday life, movies, and books. A hero is not someone who does something that only a few other people agree with. There are rules and laws for a reason and those are not meant to be broken or disobeyed. Guy Montag from the book Fahrenheit 451 by author Ray Bradbury cannot be considered a heroic figure because he took illegal actions such as stealing books

A hero is a man of courage and ability who is admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. A hero is a person who does not come along very often in any time period. He is a special person, who is a step above the average person in the way that he handles any situation that may arise.

Heroes are defined differently depending on who you are asking. Heroes are based on backgrounds, families, perspectives, and so much more. Based on what I have witnessed and been through, I believe a hero is someone who positively makes a difference in the lives of others through their actions and experiences. Heroes are supposed to make us feel safer and are supposed to make us feel better about ourselves. A hero is supposed to overcome difficult situations and help everyone believe that anything is possible. Bo Meagher is my hero of Scott County. Bo is someone who has overcome obstacles and cancer, when he couldn’t do much about his condition.

When the word "hero" is spoken, everyone has different thoughts. Some will think of super powers like flying and saving people from villains; while others have a certain person they know or have heard of that come to mind who have done something to make a difference in the lives of others but who is a hero to you? To answer this question you must first ask yourself what a hero is; what comes to your mind when someone says the word. When I am confronted with these questions I always have the same thoughts; smart, strong will power, and someone who stands up for what they believe is right.

The definition of a hero can differ, from being superman, saving the day to a friend, helping out another friend from a bully. I feel as if the definition of a hero should be any one person which helps anyone in need no matter their age, race, or religion, but also a hero can be anyone at anytime that does any helpful act of kindness. The definition of hero is constantly getting changed over and over with the many different ideas of a hero being added. In my opinion, a hero can be both pitied and/or revered, it all depends on whom’s perspective it is. If it was the bully or nemesis of superman, they both would agree on that they dislike the boy or superman. If it was the boy or a civilian that needed the help, they would have most likely revered

The difference found between a hero and villain is in why they fight. A hero fights for a greater good found beyond himself, while a villain fights specifically for himself. While a hero fights for the sake of peace, a villain fights for the purpose of continued war. Against the desire of a hero, a villain takes advantage of the apparent power he obtains, to destroy others and bring destruction upon all until he is left the only one standing. Simply put, a hero fights for good, and a villain fights for
