We fight as a single, impenetrable unit. That is the source of our strength.
Madness? This is Sparta!
Because only Spartan women give birth to real men.
Our arrows will blot out the sun. -Then we will fight in the shade.
No retreat, no surrender. That is Spartan law. And by Spartan law, we will stand and fight and die.
