Hero Quotes

At primary school, me and my best friend used to do D.I.Y. assemblies, and we'd do it as many times as we could until we got banned! We used to sing 'Hero' by Mariah Carey; it was, like, my favourite song; we were obsessed with it. We'd do it as a duet, and it's the first I remember performing.

All it had you instant cold
Lonely, lonely wasted years
You're a winner with bad souvenirs

You're a winner, take my hand'cause you are young
You will always be so strong
Hold on tight to your dreams, hold on
You are right, don't give up.

When I was racing, I had learned that you can't set stock in public adoration or your press clippings. By the time I was 26, I'd heard crowds of 100,000 scream my name, but a week later they couldn't remember who I was. You're a hero today and a bum tomorrow - hero to zero, I sometimes say.
Eddie Rickenbacker
