The heroes are us. All of us. Nobody else. The poor, the rich and the vagabond, the deviant and the flawed, the weak. All those are the heroes. All of them are looking for the heroes in another place that is not in themselves.
The "hero" does not do things for attention, so he does not care about our attention, he is interested in doing the right thing. And when we do things for attention, for apparent to be correct, but we are not really correct, then there is no hero.
There is no other place to look.
