Ann BrasharesWhat you leave behind is the people you loved. You leave yourself in them.
About This Quote
If we thought that we were the only ones who mattered we would never do anything special for anyone. We would not go out of our way to help someone else and we would not be willing to give up our time or money for someone else. However, when we realize that we are not alone and that others matter, we become more than just a person. We become a hero and a hero must fight to keep what they have left behind.
