A hero to me is someone you makes you proud, believe in or who you can look up to. Heros have to be respected because they give everything they have because they want to make the people who look up to them proud.

Every year on November 30th, I celebrate his memories. I watch all the Fast and Furious movies. I will never forget my favorite Paul Walker quote that follows me in my personal life.

Christopher Reeve once said, “a hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles” (Google). Now, you’re probably thinking who is he; didn’t he die back in the 2000’s? Yes, he did die in 2004 but he is still best known for his comic book Superman but I’m getting off subject. Let’s talk about this quote and why I chose my mom to be my superhero. A hero, in Christopher Reeve’s words, is any kind of individual who finds strength and the power to pass through tiny and big obstacles. Do you believe that? Do you think that’s a good definition for the word hero? I do, because my mom does that every day. My mom is my superhero because she is remarkable.

“Heroes and victims are the product of the mood they were in when opportunity came or when circumstances were at their worst” said Orson Scott Card. In every movie or television show has a hero and victim but which one is going to have the fans and watchers vote? A hero is a person who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities. As an anti-heroic is one who doesn 't act like a typical hero but often is a little villainous. Heroes are from many different cultures for example superman and batman.

Actions whether wrong or correct affect the life lived, each one of us as decides what to do with our lives and control what is done.

Tragedy, like comedy, is in the eyes of the beholder and what makes a particular fictional character more tragic than another can be argued until the end of time. However, despite this, it seems that an undeniable part of what makes a character tragic is their ability to save themselves from their predicament but, for whatever reason, refuse to do so, thus damning themselves to their wretched fate. Likewise, the more obvious this ability, the more control that a character has over their fate, the more tragic their eventual downfall. Moreover, coupled with the preventable nature of the character’s tragic fate, is this fate’s unpredictability, which causes the audience to, even until the very end, have hope that the tragic character will triumph over their predicament. Furthermore, this is all merged with the ultimate insignificance of the tragic character’s demise and how, despite all their struggles, they are eventually rendered wholly irrelevant and forgotten. Hence, the most tragic of the three protagonists studied is Jay Gatsby because his final fate, compared to that of Willy Loman’s or Macbeth’s is the most unpredictable, had the least impact on society, and, ultimately, was the most avoidable.

In America, we often idolize our sports stars. However, we do not always idolize them for the right reasons. Throughout many of our childhoods and even adult lives, we see athletes as heroes, but are they just good athletes or do they have characteristics that make them truly heroic? Pat Tillman was not just an NFL star, but a true hero. He lived a life of bravery, honor and sacrifice that still influences people to this day. Pat Tillman set an almost unreachable standard of character that everyone, not just athletes should strive for.

Into the wild by Jon Krakauer is about a man named Chris McCandless who had a rough childhood which could be blamed for his foolhardy and rash behavior. Due to growing problems in the family Chris decides to ditch them by leaving society and hitchhiking to Alaska to live alone in the wilderness, from a literary point of view Jon Krakauer made it seem like Chris was a hero for following his dreams. But McCandless could have made better decisions in many of his outdoor pursuits and the way he dealt with his family. While many of the underlying principles by which he tried to lead his life are indeed admirable, I don’t believe he can be called hero due to one important reason;The distinction between whether an individual is to

The person I have chosen as my hero is Paul Walker. Paul was a hero towards thousands of movie fans and car lovers, but nobody knew the other side that Paul contained. Paul is a humble, and kind person that cares more about others, rather than himself. Paul was not the kind of man to show off his wealth, or flashy cars.

The ring that Paul bought for the couple was worth $10,000, and was the ring that the couple dreamed of having. The man that was getting married was a war hero who had recently fought in Iraq. Paul kept his identity secret, which means the couple

According the Arthur Miller, what makes a character a tragic hero is their willingness to lay down his or her life to secure their sense of self dignity; it is an ultimate need for their displacement. Before the Civil War, displacement in society was a ramped emotion amongs African Americans. Thus, Paul D is the epitome of a tragic hero through Toni Morrison’s Beloved. Paul D wants ever so badly to dismantle the animalistic motif that has caratarized him.

At the same time, God makes a big joke to him—his son got very sick. He tried his best to find more money, but he cannot. Facing this situation John decided to take hostages and some indecent people, and forced hospital to do the surgery. For me, he is terrorist. He used other people’s life to change his son’s life. This is very selfish, and put whole hospital stop to treat other patients. On other hand, he is a hero for his family and himself because he saves his son’s life. As a father, he tried everything to keep his kid alive, even to do something may have a risk to jail. All in all,
