I'm no hero. Heroes don't come back. Survivors return home. Heroes never come home. If anyone thinks I'm a hero, I'm not.

I'm not a person who particularly had heros when growing up.

My heroes are and were my parents. I can't see having anyone else as my heroes.

I am not a hero, O.K.? I am not a hero. I am a very ordinary person.

I was never able to write seriously about heroes because I was very aware that I was not one and that in my background there was not this heroic thing.

I like to say I'm not a hero.

I never tire of the heroes that I knew growing up.

I didn't ask to be a hero, but I guess I have become one in the Christian community. So I accept it. But if I'm wrong about this, I guess I'll become a bum.

Heroes are those who can somehow resist the power of the situation and act out of noble motives, or behave in ways that do not demean others when they easily can.

I admire many people, but I am not sure that I have any 'heroes.'
