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

When someone lives a great life and helps others, hence is a hero, however as time passes they are corrupted for whatever reason, and live long enough to become the villain. This change is inevitable for most heroes, unless they take the opportunity to die a hero earlier (or quit the business of being a hero, as its suggested bruce wayne was trying to in the dark knight rises' end)

Quote by Harvey Dent in Batman The Dark Knight

Darren the legend went to get some us some underage beer with their fake id, but got busted and ended up snitching on us to the feds.

I guess it's true, you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain, jeoffrey said in his prison cell of 25 years.

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.)

Villain syndrome

Feeling responsible for all crimes around you at all times.
Insecurity, hypervigilance and high levels of shame and guilt.

Did I cause this person to die? I can't recall doing that, but it's probably because I'm a monster, a villain.
I am the final boss!!
On retrospection, I must have the villain syndrome.
