'The Epic of Gilgamesh', huh? Eh, I think I'll wait for the movie.

So I have to wonder, if that's how you feel about things, why you even asked the question in the first place? So death takes all of us, from the mundane to the epic, and we're all a drop in a bucket, fine. If heroism tends to be measured by sacrifice, but martyrs aren't heroes, then what good, dare I ask, is it to be the King of Heroes at all? Doesn't that just make you the drop with a proverbial crown on his head?
