Who Is Dally A Hero
If you don’t know what a hero is, don’t worry, I’m about to tell you. Heroes is a person who help someone or something that is going wrong to make it right. A hero is also a person who is a life changer. Heroes are very brave because most of the time, they’re putting their life in danger but still do it. Heroes don’t help people for money, they help them from the kindness of their heart. Heroes are also people who don’t like to see other people doing bad or fail. Dally, Johnny, and Ponyboy are heroes because they don’t want each other to fail and they try their best to help other people to do good when they are doing bad.

    In my opinion, he is not a hero, but an anti-hero. Dally was a criminal, and he took pleasure in that; he didn’t like doing things the legal way. He was a product of bad circumstances. The reason why he is a hero, is that he saved Johnny and Pony many times. Dally helped them find a place to stay when they were fugitives; gave them money and a gun; and when he risked his life to save the kids from the burning barn.…

    The Outsiders

    Ponyboy is very much defined as a hero after the events that happened at the church in which he rescued all those kids from death by grabbing them out of the burning church. He did out of courage and kindness and was praised as a hero for it. “Mrs.O’briant and I think you were sent straight from heaven. Or are you just professional heroes or something? Sent from heaven? Had he gotten a good look at Dallas? “No were greasers” I said. I was too worried and scared to appreciate the fact that he was trying to be funny. “You’re what?” “Greasers you know like hoods, JD’s. Johnny is wanted for murder, and Dallas has a record with the fuzz a mile long.”(95).The quote present here relates to the theme and explains the ambulance driver overlooking his past and still appreciating him as a hero. The author is putting emphasis on the heroism in the quote and that no matter what background heroes come from, they are looked upon for their actions and the same applied for Ponyboy and what he did for those kids. The reason that he was looked upon as a hero was because of his actions, but what was he defined as before the church? He was a greaser, just your average every day greaser who was looked upon as a hood, a thief, and juvenile delinquent to society. “It was my pride. It was long and silky, just like sodas only…

    “Since it is so likely that (children) will meet cruel enemies, let them at least have heard of brave knights and heroic courage. Otherwise you are making their destiny not brighter but darker” (C.S. Lewis). We need heroes to stand out and help when needed or called to action. Heroes should be people that all cultures/people all over the world can look up to and have a good example no matter how bad their life is. A hero puts others before himself, loves to give back and not take, and one who stands out and sets a good example.…
