Homer
“Be strong, saith my heart; I am a soldier;
I have seen worse sights than this.”
Homer, The Odyssey

Homer
“Be strong, saith my heart; I am a soldier;
I have seen worse sights than this.”
Homer, The Iliad

Virginia Woolf
“Did it matter then, she asked herself, walking towards Bond Street, did it matter that she must inevitably cease completely? All this must go on without her; did she resent it; or did it not become consoling to believe that death ended absolutely?”
Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway

John Milton
“Did I request thee, Maker, from my clay
To mould me man? Did I solicit thee
From darkness to promote me?”
John Milton, Paradise Lost

Homer
“And overpowered by memory
Both men gave way to grief. Priam wept freely
For man - killing Hector, throbbing, crouching
Before Achilles' feet as Achilles wept himself,
Now for his father, now for Patroclus once again
And their sobbing rose and fell throughout the house.”
Homer, The Iliad
