Hero Worship Quotes

We are all alike, on the inside Picture Quote #1

I’m not much given to straight, irony-free hero-worship Picture Quote #1

I would never behave with so little dignity. Nor would I wish to be confronted in such a manner by anyone else. Vampires inspire screams, not squees. Involuntary urination is common, I grant, but it properly flows from a sense of terror, not an ecstatic sense of hero worship Picture Quote #1

What my research has shown me is that experts tend on the whole to form very rigid camps; that within these camps, a dominant perspective emerges that often silences opposition; that experts move with the prevailing winds, often hero-worshipping their own gurus Picture Quote #1

In Kolkata is a temple where the deity worshipped is Amitabh Bachchan. The daily aarti is performed to the chanting of the Amitabh Chaleesa. And people still ask, ‘Could our mythological heroes be based on actual people who once lived?’ Picture Quote #1

It now seems to be quite a thing to pull down the mighty from their seats and roll them in the mire. This practice deserves pronounced condemnation. Hero worship is a tremendous force in uplifting and strengthening. Humanity, let us have our heroes. Let us continue to believe that some have been truly great Picture Quote #1

I have always been a friend to hero-worship; it is the only rational one, and has always been in use amongst civilized people - the worship of spirits is synonymous with barbarism - it is mere fetish. ... There is something philosophic in the worship of the heroes of the human race Picture Quote #1

One must be careful not to allow himself fall into the trap of hero worship; we are to take counsel from men, emulate their courage, and godliness, but we are not allowed to worship them. Heroes are men, and men make mistakes Picture Quote #1

The kind of hero worship you have, when a parent is lost early and you don’t know all their faults and misgivings, is a very strong influence Picture Quote #1

I was a shy, awkward sort of a boy and my father’s frequent absences from home, along with my hero worship for him, made me even shyer Picture Quote #1

Growing up, I looked up to real women. I didn’t go in for hero worship and I still don’t. Everybody has feet of clay Picture Quote #1

Religion is many things, but one of them, surely, is a way for adults to indulge in uncritical hero worship Picture Quote #1

Hero-worship is strongest where there is least regard for human freedom Picture Quote #1

I don’t like to go to conventions, and I don’t like to relate to people on a level of hero worship, because there’s no real communication going on there Picture Quote #1

My Mt. Rushmore of hero worship would include Ralph Waldo Emerson, Marcus Aurelius, Frank Sinatra and Barry White Picture Quote #1

If you want to know what a man’s character is really like... ask him to tell you the living person he most admires - for hero worship is the truest index of a man’s private nature Picture Quote #1

If youth is the period of hero-worship, so also is it true that hero-worship, more than anything else, perhaps, gives one the sense of youth. To admire, to expand one’s self, to forget the rut, to have a sense of newness and life and hope, is to feel young at any time of life Picture Quote #1

I don’t hero worship for the sake of hero worship. When I find people who are truly remarkable - and I think Joseph Needham is a classic example - I do value their counsel Picture Quote #1

She suddenly saw Wimsey in a new light. She knew him to be intelligent, clean, courteous, wealthy, well-read, amusing and enamored, but he had not so far produced in her that crushing sense of inferiority which leads to prostration and hero-worship. But she now realized that there was, after all, something godlike about him. He could control a horse Picture Quote #1

Celebrity-worship and hero-worship should not be confused. Yet we confuse them every day, and by doing so we come dangerously close to depriving ourselves of all real models. We lose sight of the men and women who do not simply seem great because they are famous but are famous because they are great. We come closer and closer to degrading all fame into notoriety Picture Quote #1

I don’t believe in hero worship Picture Quote #1

Hero worship has died with heroes, and if someone bows down today, it is to pick up something Picture Quote #1

The Americans are certainly hero worshippers, and always take their heroes from the criminal classes Picture Quote #1

History is made by masses of people. One man, or ten men, don’t start the earthquakes and don’t stop them either. Only hero worshipers and ignorant historians think they do Picture Quote #1

The kind of hero worship you have, when a parent is lost early and you don’t know all their faults and misgivings, is a very strong influence Picture Quote #1

I was a shy, awkward sort of a boy and my fathers frequent absences from home, along with my hero worship for him, made me even shyer Picture Quote #1

The cynicism that regards hero worship as comical is always shadowed by a sense of physical inferiority Picture Quote #1

The contemporary hero, the mythical pattern in the imitation of whom we would live, remains as yet undefined. We have no hero; what is more to the point, we suspect hero worship Picture Quote #1

I am a hero worshiper. I love the number one tennis player. I love the number one baseball player. I want to see those records broken Picture Quote #1
