— But you know, Dobrinya, can i... Well, there`s a girl who thinks that i cannot become a hero.
— And you think you can?
— You`ll show me a couple of your bogatyr techniques, and as for heroic words i know them already. This one for example: "Don`t you ever dare to come, enemy, to Mother Russia! You won`t ever burn down Russian towns!" Or here: "Don`t you boast, evil foe, of your dark power, or else..."
— Are you nuts?

If anyone has the right to be called a hero, It’s not the one who took up the blade. It’s not the one who raised his shield, nor the one who healed the wounded. Only one who truly risks his life may be called a hero. Protect your friends, save the girl, and face danger. It doesn’t matter if you fall. No, that’s just fine. Cry your heart out over it. Within the defeated, a victor waits to emerge. Stay true to your wishes. Cry out your desires. And if you do that’s what will make you the coolest hero! Let your longings burn! Scream out your wishes!

— Do you know what you get for being a hero? Nothing! You get shot at. Pat on the back, bla bla bla. That a boy! You get divorced... Your wife can't remember your last name, kids don't want to talk to you... You get to eat a lot of meals by yourself. Trust me kid, nobody wants to be that guy.
— Then why you doing this?
— Because there is nobody else to do it right now. Believe me if there was somebody else to do it i would let them do it. There's not, so we're doing it.
— That's what makes you that guy.
