Odyssey

"Sing to me the man, Muse, the man of twists and turns driven time and again off course, once he had plundered the hallow heights of Troy." (Pg 77, 1) "Ah how shameless-the way these mortals blame the gods. From us alone, they say, come all their miseries, yes," (Pg. 78,38) "Let them all die so, all who do such things. But my heart breaks for Odysseus, that seasoned veteran cursed by fate so long-." (Pg. 79, 56) "You must not cling to your boyhood any longer- it’s time you were a man. Haven’t you heard what glory Price Oresteds won throughout the world …" (Pg. 87, 341) "… As for giving orders, Men will see to that, but I most of all: I hold the reigns of power in this house." (Pg. 89, 412) "the true son of Odysseus sprang from the bed and dressed, over his shoulder he slung his well-honed sword, …" (Pg. 93, 3) " ‘Hear me, men of Ithaca. Hear what I have to say. Never let any sceptered king be kind and gentle now, …’ " (Pg. 100, 256) "Menelaus recognized him at once but pondered whether to let him state his father’s name or probe him first and prompt him step by step." (Pg. 128,131) "It’s hard for a mortal man to face a god." (Pg. 137, 445) "Heard-hearted you are, you gods! You unrivaled lords of jealousy- scandalized when goddesses sleep with mortals, openly, even when one has made the man her husband,…"(Pg. 156, 130) "So there he lay at rest, the storm-tossed great Odysseus, borne down by his hard labors first and now deep sleep as Athena traveled through the countryside and reached the Phaeacians’ city."(Pg. 168, 1) "Ah, if only a man like that were called my husband, lived right here, pleased to stay forever … Enough. Give the stranger food and drink, my girls."(Pg. 176, 270) "Eurylochus, stay right here, eating, drinking, safe by the black ship. I must be off. Necessity drives me on." (Pg. 239, 300) "just as the Cyclops trapped our comrades in his lair with hotheaded Odysseus right beside them all- thanks to this man’s rashness they died too!" (Pg. 248, 480)
