Big crush on Lucy. Goes to the guillotine for her, never gets laid, helps his main competition stay with her. Brave or a total simp?

The British dude in last of the Mohicans. He got burned at the stake to prove a point.

Sydney Carton in a Tale of Two Cities.

Dude goes the guillotine for a worthless man who is married to a woman he loves. Never even got to first base with her but lost his head for her anyway, literally.

I would say it's the NY CEO that just had his wife murdered by her illegal alien lover who was their handyman.

Brave! Anyone who says otherwise has a pedestrian brain.

It is a far far better thing I do than I have ever done.
It is a far far better rest I go to than I have ever known.

Beautiful ending! In fact Tale of Two Cities has the best opening and closing lines of any book ever written.

quote:

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way – in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.


And to the poster who said Lucy’s paramour was worthless, not so! He was a good man; not very deep, but perfectly honorable.
