True Heroism

By Frederick William Robertson

To STAND with a smile upon your face, against a stake from which you can not get away — that, no doubt, is heroic. But true glory is not resignation to the inevitable. To stand unchained, with perfect liberty to go away, held only by the higher claims of duty, and let the fire creep up to the heart — that is heroism.—F. W. Robertson.
