Empik Today I came across an interesting number of the magazine "civilization" dedicated to heroes and heroism. Well, interesting, something just in time for our scouts, and he is understood to Stas - I thought and bought the magazine in question. In the introduction to an interesting quote from "The Lord of the Rings," Tolkien:
"Sam said:" In the past I thought that the brave heroes of legends, specifically looking for adventures that they wanted to, because they are interesting, and normal life is a bit boring, that worked them, so to speak, for entertainment. But in these legends, which have a deeper meaning and remain in memory, the truth is different. Heroes of the usual fate of their will, despite pulling in the adventure [...]. Probably every one of them, like we had plenty of opportunities along the way to go back, but did not. If one turned around half way, well, we do not know about it, that memory of him was lost. Known only to those who endure to the end, though not always the end was happy .... ".
