My favorite part of Beowulf.

Whats my favorite part of Beowulf......

"I have heard, too, that the monster's scorn of men is so great that he needs no weapons and fears none. Nor will I. My lord Higlac might think less of me if I let my sword go where my feet were afraid to, if I hid behind some broad linden shield: my hands alone shall fight for me, struggle for life against the monster. God must decide who will be given to death's cold grip." (p.g. 14)

The reason I like this part of Beowulf it's because it shows how brave he is. How he has no fear against Grendel and is willing to fight him even if it's the last thing he duos. But he knows it's not up to him to decide but to God. He will decide who will be the winner. For him it will just be a clear and fear fight just like any other. But he knew it was for his king and people of the Village own good. Here is where I think he showed his true Epic Hero braveness.
