Quote for Wednesday, May 25, 2005


The hero is known for achievements;
the celebrity for well-knowns.
The hero reveals the possibilities of human nature.
The celebrity reveals the possibilities
of the press and media.
Celebrities are people who make news,
but heroes are people who make history.
Time makes heroes but dissolves celebrities.
~ Daniel J. Boorstin
