Troy 2004 quotes, page 8

Odysseus

If they ever tell my story, let them say that I walked with giants. Men rise and fall like the winter wheat, but these names will never die. Let them say I lived in the time of Hector, tamer of horses. Let them say I lived in the time of Achilles.

Odysseus

It's no insult to say a dead man is dead.

Achilles

It's too early in the day for killing princes.

Odysseus

Men are haunted by the vastness of eternity. And so we ask ourselves: will our actions echo across the centuries? Will strangers hear our names long after we are gone, and wonder who we were, how bravely we fought, how fiercely we loved?

Hector

Oh, and that makes you feel heroic, saying you're willing to die for love? Well you know nothing about dying, and you know nothing about love!

Agamemnon

The Gods only protect the strong.

Odysseus

This war will never be forgotten, nor will the heroes who fight in it.

Achilles

We men are wretched things.

Hector

Yesterday the Greeks underestimated us. We should not return the favor.

Odysseus

You have your sword, I have my tricks; we play with the toys the gods give us.

Hector

You want me to look upon your army and tremble? I only see 50,000 men brought here to fight for one man's greed.
