More From Paul Simon

It concerns me when i see a small child watching the hero shoot the villain on television. it is teaching the small child to believe that shooting people is heroic. the hero just did it and it was effective. it was acceptable and the hero was well thought of afterward. if enough of us find inner peace to affect the institution of television, the little child will see the hero transform the villain and bring him to a good life. he'll see the hero do something significant to serve fellow human beings. so little children will get the idea that if you want to be a hero you must help people.

I'm not going to lie. i check the itunes charts. it's all about the itunes charts. i only go on the internet for the itunes charts and basketball blogs.
Inspirational Basketball Lying
It'd be negligent to say that i don't want to be at the top of the charts. of course i do, it's proof that your song is being heard. but i think it's more about the work for me and being proud of what i'm doing in music than what people think about my music. i want to like my music before you like it. i don't want to sell anything that i don't really like. i don't want to sell myself short just to get to the top of the charts. it doesn't feel that great. feeling proud of your work feels greater than being at the top of the charts.

You know who it is? it's me in 10 years. so i turned 25. ten years later, that same person comes to me and says, 'so, are you a hero?' and i was like, 'not even close. no, no, no.' she said, 'why?' i said, 'because my hero's me at 35.' so you see every day, every week, every month and every year of my life, my hero's always 10 years away. i'm never gonna be my hero. i'm not gonna attain that. i know i'm not, and that's just fine with me because that keeps me with somebody to keep on chasing.
Hero Years Months
Today's children are living a childhood of firsts. they are the first daycare generation; the first truly multicultural generation; the first generation to grow up in the electronic bubble, the environment defined by computers and new forms of television; the first post-sexual revolution generation; the first generation for which nature is more abstraction than reality; the first generation to grow up in new kinds of dispersed, deconcentrated cities, not quite urban, rural, or suburban.

Heroes come in all sizes, and you don't have to be a giant hero. you can be a very small hero. it's just as important to understand that accepting self-responsibi lity for the things you do, having good manners, caring about other people-these are heroic acts. everybody has the choice of being a hero or not being a hero every day of their lives.
Hero Caring Self

Without war there are no heroes. what harm would that be? oh, lavinia, what a woman's question that is.

You don't have to be larger than life to be a hero, just larger than yourself.
Hero Larger Than Life
My self . . . is a dramatic ensemble. here a prophetic ancestor makes his appearance. here a brutal hero shouts. here an alcoholic bon vivant argues with a learned professor. here a lyric muse, chronically love-struck, raises her eyes to heaven. her papa steps forward, uttering pedantic protests. here the indulgent uncle intercedes. here the aunt babbles gossip. here the maid giggles lasciviously. and i look upon it all with amazement, the sharpened pen in my left hand.

Only a handful of men and women leave an imprint on the conscience of a nation and on the history that they helped shape.
