.... refusal to take effective measures to improve their place in life. And it was because of this that he did not care for the working class and envied the solidly established middle class. As a boy H. G. Wells had always been physically active, but after he broke his leg at the age of 8 in 1874, he couldn't do too much. During his period of convalescence he turned to books for the first time.

.... heroes to me, right? But still I was perplexed. There had to be more. So, Cyrano de Bergerac...hmmm...from my first readings he just sounded like this eccentric fellow with a large schnozzle. Why was he even put on the list of heroes? I decided maybe the techniques learned in class could possibly help me out with my dilemma. I read again. I looked over notes again. I read again. I looked over notes again. I think you catch my drift. And it turns out that this Cyrano guy ain’t half bad. In all actuality he may be a hero.

.... the time. The problem was he was smaller than everybody else. Then in turn he was the one that had gotten in the end. But by looking at Gagnon (gon- yoe) he is definately all grown up. The skinny kid who once stood 180 cm as a junior in high school is now a 189 cm, 96 kg monster with a very mean steak. He just happens to play ice hockey for a living. Only this time, he is the one beating everyone up.

He could get beat and come back for revenge, but there weren't many times that he was defeated. He was also a very inspiring person to many people. He taught that mental actions overcome physical ones, that people should only result to fighting when it was the last option, and that a person shouldn't determine the outcome of a fight before it starts because underestimation could lead to defeat. Bruce also had clever methods of thinking and different ways to put his thoughts into .....
