Beware the Greeks bearing gifts.
My sons, the fool is the man who makes a quarrel of a debate.
Then tell me who pays for the Greek blood shed on this plain? -Trojan blood has paid in full. -Trojan blood is not valid currency in Sparta, nor does it pay for the launching of a thousand ships.
Nothing endures on Earth, Paris, neither sorrow nor happiness or people in love.
The goddess of beauty, Aphrodite, come down to Earth in mortal form. She will bring the disaster I have prophesied. Her name will be written in letters of fire. Helen. Helen of Troy.
