“Zoals de wester met geweld van vlagen
toeslaat, de wolken van de blauwe zuider
verstoot: een massa golven zwelt en rolt
en zeeschuim spat omhoog door het gehuil
van waaiwind waarin water wijduit dwarrelt-
zo velde Hektor tal van krijgerskoppen.”
― Patrick Lateur, The Iliad

“For this Hektor, Homer's Hektor, who brags outrageously, who sometimes hangs back when the going is worst, who bolts from Achilleus, is still the hero who forever captures the affection and admiration of the modern reader, far more strongly than his conqueror has ever done. Such are the accidental triumphs of Homer.”
― Richmond Lattimore and Homer
