"War is for men, my dear, for all men here, but most of all for me"
"You bore me, though only to live for a few short years"
"You gods think and decide whether we shall slay him at last, brave man though he is"
"For he has deprived me of many brave sons, either slaughtering them or selling them off as slaves"
WHO SAID THESE QUOTES IT IS DRIVING ME CRAZY?
