Quote context

[...]

- Eurylochus! Eurylochus!

- They've gone, Ulysses. They are waiting for you at my house.

- Who are you?

- Circe.

- Circe the witch.

- That's such an ugly word. Why not goddess?

- Was it you who pulled the ship off course?

- I was lonely.

- What do you want with me?

- To help you. To load your ship with riches of all kinds. To give you a favorable wind to lead you home.

- Why should you want to do that for me?

- It has been many years now that men have been landing on my island. Men famous for their bravery and for their heroic deeds. And each time I was left more lonely then before.

- But ever since the winds first brought your name to me, and Echo repeated your deeds, I have been waiting for your ship, Ulysses.

- And for the first time, Echo and the winds have not lied.

- What is it?

- Strange. Same proud face. Same dark eyes as Penelope. It's strange.

- Why is it strange? Isn't the difference between one woman, and another only in the mind of a man?
