On pragmatism and semiotics:
There has never been a greater symbol of equality among Men before God than a weapon - which did indeed bring all Men equal under God.

"Life means struggle, battle — war. Where it ceases to be that, its standard falls; it degenerates." - Anthony Ludovici

"Beware those quick to praise for they need praise in return. Beware those who are quick to censor for they are afraid of what they do not know. Beware those who seek constant crowds for they are nothing alone. Beware the average man, the average woman, beware their love. Their love is average, seeks average, but there is genius in their hatred. There is enough genius in their hatred to kill you, to kill anybody. Not wanting solitude, not understanding solitude, they will attempt to destroy anything that differs from their own. Not being able to create art they will not understand art. They will consider their failure as creators only as a failure of the world. Not being able to love fully they will believe your love incomplete, and then they will hate you, and their hatred will be perfect." - Charles Bukowsky

On attachment, investment & return:
Tibetan monks will spend weeks, months working on a painting like this, a Mandala, just to wipe it away in an instant. Understand - God will watch your life the same way. You will spend decades building a beautiful poem only for it to be wiped clean in an instant.
Do not attach yourself to the transient World too much - you do not get to take it with you to the afterlife.

Folk heroes are imbedded in the consciousness of a people and have traditionally always served as a figure of inspiration. Before children today started to idolise sportsball players and YouTube celebrities, their heroes would often be folk heroes that were immortalised in literature, song, art and film.
When I was a young kid in America (lived there for a year), I remember being captivated by a storyteller that told of the heroic deeds of Davy Crockett, the frontiersman that fell alongside 183 white settlers at the Alamo. A witness described some of the aftermath, noting that Crockett's body was found in the barracks surrounded by "no less than sixteen Mexican corpses", with Crockett's knife buried in one of them.
I hope there are still many Americans, specifically young American boys, that remember their heroes.
