Quote of the Day, 9/10/06

Some thoughts today about heroes....

Tom Brokaw
Heroes are people who rise to the occasion and slip quietly away.

Edward F. Croker
I have no ambition in this world but one, and that is to be a fireman. The position may, in the eyes of some, appear to be a lowly one; but we who know the work which the fireman has to do believe that his is a noble calling. Our proudest moment is to save lives.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning
And each man stands with his face in the light of his own drawn sword. Ready to do what a hero can.
