"Un héros n'est pas plus courageux qu'un homme ordinaire mais il est courageux cinq minutes de plus"
Simplified meaning
Sometimes, what makes someone a hero isn't that they are naturally braver or stronger than others. It's that they hold on and keep going just a bit longer in tough situations. Imagine you and a friend are facing a big, scary challenge, like speaking to a large crowd. Both of you feel scared, but your friend decides to face the fear for a little while longer and steps up to speak. This extra push can sometimes make all the difference. In life, if you can push yourself to hang in there and face your fears for just a bit more time, you might find that you can achieve great things too. It’s about holding on and not giving up quickly.
