Schindler’s List




Schindler’s List

To me a hero dosent have to save someone or something to really be a hero. Just trying to help someone or something is heroic. To risk your life to save or help another one is heroic. " To say yes is to follow the mass to do what is commonly expected. To say no is to deny the crowd, to set apart, to reaffirm yourself."  I really like this quote because it shows that you dont have to save some one to be a hero.
I feel that heroes do not necessarily possess certain qualities but are defined by their actions. You can be a selfish person and see a car crush and still call 911 or get some one out of the car. You could also be a mean person and save someone from a fire. You always put yourself first and see someone that needs help and still help them. This means that a hero dosent need to have certain qualities.
There were not so many heros during the holocaust but there was some people that did save many people.   
Schindler helped the Jews by giving them a job in his big company. He was a hero because he told the nazi that he needs them to build something so they did not take them to concentration camps. I am very happy that there where people that did try to help the poor jews.
