A Quote by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

To a valet no man is a hero. — © Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
To a valet no man is a hero.
Nobody, they say, is a hero to his valet. Of course; for a man must be a hero to understand a hero. The valet, I dare say, has great respect for some person of his own stamp.
No man is a hero to his valet. This is not because the hero is no hero, but because the valet is a valet.
It is said that no man is a hero to his valet. That is because a hero can be recognized only by a hero.
No man is a hero to his own valet.
No man is a hero to his valet de chamber
A man must indeed be a hero to appear such in the eyes of his valet.
To a valet no man is a hero. [Ger., Es gibt fur den Kammerdiener keiner Helden.]
P. Diddy gave me his valet ticket once... because he thought I was the valet lady.
No hero is a hero if he ever killed someone! Only the man who has not any blood in his hand can be a real hero! The honour of being a hero belongs exclusively to the peaceful people!
A man can be a hero if he is a scientist, or a soldier, or a drug addict, or a disc jockey, or a crummy mediocre politician. A man can be a hero because he suffers and despairs; or because he thinks logically and analytically; or because he is "sensitive"; or because he is cruel. Wealth establishes a man as a hero, and so does poverty. Virtually any circumstance in a man's life will make him a hero to some group of people and has a mythic rendering in the culture - in literature, art, theater, or the daily newspapers.
I'd gladly do without a valet. I'm never so well treated as when I'm without a valet.
You are a vain fellow. You want to be a hero. That is why you do such silly things. A hero!... I don't quite know what that is: but, you see, I imagine that a hero is a man who does what he can. The others do not do it.
The difference between a man and his valet: they both smoke the same cigars, but only one pays for them.
One of the amazing things about Spider-Man is that you don’t see skin colour when he’s in the suit. You don’t see any religious beliefs. A hero is a hero, whether you’re a man, woman, gay, lesbian, straight, black, white or red all over ? it doesn’t matter.
If Hero means sincere man, why may not every one of us be a Hero?
We have these rules, the 'hero rules.' Like, a hero doesn't slouch. A hero walks proudly with his head up. A hero walks with a purpose. A hero's always a gentleman.
