“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-responsibility 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.”

~George Lucas

American film director, producer, screenwriter, and entrepreneur George Lucas was born on this day in 1944.
