You either die and be a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain

This is quoted from Two-Face of the Dark Knight movie.An interpretation of this quote is that you could stick to your morals,of what's right,to be loyal to a cause,even if it is of your detriment (die and be a hero).Should you contradict your values for your betterment,you may find yourself making the same decisions of the very people you yourself considered corrupt/evil(live long enough to see yourself become a villain.)

you either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villian

It means that in life you are given choices and this defines who you will become morally. You choose who you are and if you choose to be bad than you are the villian but if you choose to be good then you are a hero. We are all faced with the choice of being good or bad but you only you can choose it.

A quote from the dark knight by harvey dent

Tejeda chose to be good for the first 25 years of his life but then he decided to rob and kill people. At his trial the judge asked Tejada how he could've changed so drastically and his lawyer replied by saying you either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villian.

hero

Hero, the name of an adorably oblivious young lady. A high-key heather, with a heart of gold. She receives a lot of genuine compliments, but she never believes them. Sadly, a very insecure and somewhat sensitive person. Which is why she tends to have more guy friends because they feel the need to protect her. She attracts a lot of touch starved people and quickly eliminates that aspect of their lives. An adorable dynamic between all her and her guy friends honestly. In short, the perfect combination of a soft girl and a 'bruh' girl.

Some Guy: That Hero chick needs to shut up.
Hero's guy friends: NO YOU NEED TO SHUT UP BEFORE WE BEAT YOUR FUCKING HEAD IN--
