All my big heroes are literary, writers.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Literature throws us many great heroes. Real life invariably outdoes them.
My literary heroes were mostly women writers and thinkers - Joy Williams, Joan Didion, Anne Sexton, June Jordan, Sarah Schulman, Audre Lorde, Cherrie Moraga, Christa Wolf - and much of this writing was political as well as literary.
Every character I play has to be the hero of his own story, the way we're all heroes of our own lives.
To me, characters are at the heart of great literature.
We are all the heroes and heroines of our own lives. Our love stories are amazingly romantic; our losses and betrayals and disappointments are gigantic in our own minds.
My heroes were all in the theatre.
I admire many people, but I am not sure that I have any 'heroes.'
There are a lot of people who can be classified as heroes and do great things and inspire me.
I've always written about heroes and wondered who they are.
My real heroes have always been sportswriters.
