It's more than mascot gezegde

 It's more than mascot status. It's hero worship.

The latter is the serf's fealty to his lord. The former is consistent with respect, but the latter is a sign of debasement. The former does not take away one's intelligence to think and independence to act. The latter makes one perfect fool. The former involves no disaster to the state. The latter is a source of positive danger to it.

 Some men worship rank, some worship heroes, some worship power, some worship God, and over these ideals they dispute, but they all worship money

  Daniel J. Boorstin

 We are going for a more realistic look. The point here is that we're creating a children's worship room that is representative of their neighborhood. The intent is that worship of God is not just limited to a church building. Worship should take place everywhere, every day -- at a power plant, in a warehouse.

 The mother said, 'They call your son a hero, and my son is a hero,' ... I said, 'I know, but I just can't see it that way.' She said, 'I looked it up in the dictionary and a hero is an ordinary person doing an extraordinary job.' So I guess that's true.
