Schindler’s List

What makes a person a hero? their actions? their intentions? Personally, I think that a persons actions, AND intentions make a person a hero. If a person does something heroic, but for their own selfish needs, I wouldn't think that's heroic. If a person thinks all day about being heroic, but just sits there and does nothing, I wouldn't define that as very heroic, either. Schinder here, in my opinion, is torn between being a hero, and being a little selfish. He acted for the good of the people, but at the same time, receiving some workers for himself. So it was kind of a win-win situation, therefore, masking his true intentions.
