saints and heroes - quotes and descriptions to inspire creative writing

A saint is a marvellous hero, one who does the harder thing when it is the right thing to do, even at a cost to the self. They are core of society that stays in every storm to anchor the world to what heroism is, that it is love writ large, living examples of what sainthood.

"Saint" and "hero" are different words for the same folk.

Angels, saints, gods and heroes - distinctions without much difference.

If you twist my words as the knaves of sophistry have historically done, don't whine. You are supposed to make some effort to see how you have twisted morality to suit yourselves until what was once a thing of beauty requires the hands of a divine master to repair. Saints and angels can only do their job when the mob stands back and takes a knee.
