“True heroism is remarkably sober very undramatic It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost but the urge to serve others at whatever cost”

Arthur Ashe

Simplified Meaning:

Being a true hero is not about showing off or trying to be the best just to beat everyone else. It’s about wanting to help people, even when it’s hard or you have to give up something important. For example, think about a firefighter. They don’t rush into a burning building to be famous or win awards; they do it to save lives and keep people safe, even if it means risking their own lives. Real heroism is in the everyday actions of helping others without expecting anything in return. Anyone can be a hero by putting others first and doing what’s right, no matter how difficult it might be. This kind of heroism is quiet and doesn’t make a big deal out of itself, but it’s very powerful.
