If you have a character that seems to be all perfect, it's hard to relate to him because when you read a story you really want to empathize with the character that you are reading about. And it's hard to empathize with someone who is flawless and who has no problems.

Stan Lee

When I was growing up, the really, really cool super heroes were all male - so I wanted to be them.

Virginia Madsen

I really liked the snake that breaks out of the cage in the beginning of the movie. I saw it in real life, and it was really cool. Really big and fat. The owls are cool as well, but you can't really pet them.

Tom Felton

In my movies, I portray this 'Everyman' persona, someone everybody can empathize with. People can identify with a guy like me.

Judge Reinhold

I like my heroes to be imperfect; I like them to be striving. I identify with that kind of aspiration to do better.

Kelly Sue DeConnick

When we read stories of heroes, we identify with them. We take the journey with them. We see how the obstacles almost overcome them. We see how they grow as human beings or gain qualities or show great qualities of strength and courage and with them, we grow in some small way.

Sam Raimi

If you can identify with people, you can empathize with people and therefore you understand things.

Al Pacino

A lot of people hate heroes. I was criticized for portraying people who are brave, honest, loving, intelligent. That was called weak and sentimental. People who dismiss all real emotion as sentimentality are cowards. They’re afraid to commit themselves, and so they remain ‘cool’ for the rest of their lives, until they’re dead—then they’re really cool.

Mark Helprin

If you really want to be able to express what goes on with other people, you have to be able to look at them and empathize with them and not judge who they are and what they do.

Lindsay Wagner

I think one of the things about being around for a while and getting to know yourself is that when you do have these positive experiences, you don't take them for granted - you identify them and you make the most of them. I don't know - it's kind of cool getting old in a lot of ways.

Johnny Marr

I really love helping students and helping them empathize with people who lived a really long time ago. That's one of the highlights of working in fiction.

Deborah Harkness

I wouldn't say I really admired anyone. When I was a kid, there were definitely a lot of tough guys, but they weren't really cool. If anything, that was an influence on me: to take that toughness and combine it with the cool style, the cool entrance, the cool gear - and driving to work in a Ferrari.

Kazuchika Okada

Heroes became heroes flaws and all gives us hope. "You mean I don't have to be perfect to fulfill my Dream, to make a contribution?" Hardly. It takes commitment, courage, and passion to live a dream and make a contribution. Heroes had these qualities along with their flaws.

Peter McWilliams

I have two brothers, and one of them plays the guitar. I actually started playing the guitar because of him. Both of my brothers are 12 years older than me, so I thought they were really cool, and I just wanted to be really cool like them.

Brianna Hildebrand

If you can't empathize with other people, then you will never really be able to write well about them.

Rumaan Alam

I don't know who can really relate to being cool. Even people who you think are cool, they are trying to be cool. Nobody can understand the feeling of being cool, really.
