Life consists in action,′ Aristotle said, ‘and its end is a mode of action, not a quality.’ The same with Hamlet, or Arjuna in the Bhagavad Gita, or Neo in The Matrix: characters who have overcome their doubts and fears, then pushed them aside and acted. It is this action that elevates them into the realm of ’heroic figures.
