[Speaking to Agamemnon] Before my time is done, I will look down on your corpse and smile!
[To Hector] We will meet again my brother.
You are free. If I hurt you, it's not what I wanted. [pause] Go. No one will stop you. You have my word.
Men die protecting you. Perhaps they deserve more than your pity.
Is there no one else? Is there no one else?
You gave me peace in a lifetime of war.
It's too early in the day to be killing princes.
Myrmidons! My brothers of the sword! I would rather fight beside you than any army of thousands! Let no man forget how menacing we are, we are lions! Do you know what's waiting beyond that beach? Immortality! Take it! It's yours!
Get up, Prince of Troy! Won't let stone take my glory!
Never hesitate.
You are a far better king than the one leading this army.
There are no pacts between lions and men.
Now you know who you are fighting!
I'll tell you a secret. Something they don't teach you in your temple. The Gods envy us. They envy us because we're mortal, because any moment might be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we're doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again.
We men are wretched things.
At night I sometimes see them. The faces of the men I killed. They're waiting for me on the far bank of the Styx. They say, Welcome, brother.
You don't have to fear me girl. You're the only Trojan who can say that.
Greece got along fine before I was born, Greece will be Greece long after I'm gone.
The man wants to die!
The Gods only protect the strong.
Empires are forged by war.
Peace is for women and the weak.
That boy may have just saved the war for us.
Achilles can't be controlled!
Achilles can't be controlled!
Achilles can't be controlled!
I almost lost this war because of you.
He's going to take the beach of Troy with 50 men?
You'll be my slave in Mycenae. A Trojan priestess scrubbing my floors. And at night... [Briseis stabs him in the neck with a Trojan blade]
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?
