Quote by Umberto Eco
The real hero is always a hero by mistake he dreams of being an honest coward like everybody else.
Summary
This quote highlights the unexpected nature of heroism. It suggests that true heroes do not actively seek out heroic acts or aspire to be courageous. Instead, they stumble upon heroic circumstances and find themselves acting bravely despite their own fears or desire to conform to societal expectations. The quote suggests that heroes are ordinary individuals who, when faced with adversity, rise above their own limitations and become heroes unintentionally, contrasting with the notion that heroes are exceptional beings deliberately seeking heroism.
