Hero with a Thousand Faces



"a hero or a heroine that is someone who has found or achieved or done something beyond the normal range of achievement and experience. A hero properly is someone who has given his life to something bigger than himself or other than himself… there are two types of deed one is the physical deed the hero who has performed a war act or a physical act of heroism, saving a life that the hero act giving himself sacrificing himself to another and the other kind is the spiritual hero who has learned or found a mode of experiencing the super normal range of human spiritual life and then come back and communicated it…that is the basic motif of the hero..." ~ Joseph Campbell
