Good. I thought about just writing “Disillusionment is what heroes are made of”, to avoid the possibility of confusion, but decided to go with the original quote. It is said by a cynic as an encouragement to a person disillusioned by the behavior of people in groups. It’s a call to embrace it. For even if it might be better that the world lives up to your expectations, it would be worse if you didn’t have the judgment to realize something is wrong. And it is only the ones who realize something is wrong who will do something about a problem.
