Quote context

[...]

- If I win the games, I shall sleep in the bed of Ulysses.

- And to thank the god for this magnificent victory, I shall cut the throat of every goat on the island.

- You were born to be a leader, Eurymachus. And for this you are prepared to risk everything on one day.

- I do not envy the winner.

- Evidently you do not think it worth much to become king of Ithaca.

- The new king of Ithaca should learn to sleep lightly.

- What does that mean?

- There will be daggers behind every column, poison in every goblet, a plot in every smile.

- Come now, Ulysses is at the bottom of the sea, or maybe on some beach with his bones rotting in the sun, food for the hawks by now.

- The thought of Ulysses doesn't trouble me.

- To whom do you refer then?

- Telemachus is only a boy.

Top rated lines from this movie

But even so, this vulnerable mass of fears has dared to battle with a god, and has not yet been defeated.

Six months? Has it been that long? Seems like a single summer's evening.

You witch! While I slept you turned a band of heroes into swine. -It was much easier to do than you think.

Fear is making you forget your empty stomach.

Headstrong mortal, proud of that short dream which you call a lifetime, enamored of your weaknesses and your miserable sins, and fascinated by death.
