"“So, you ask me the name I’m known by, Cyclops?
I will tell you. But you must give me a guest-gift
as you’ve promised. Nobody —that’s my name" (Hinds 134).
I chose this quote because it distinguishes Odysseus from other classical heroes. In this scene he uses deception in order to overpower a foe rather than using brute power. This helps convey the idea that knowledge can equate to power." — Feb 27, 2021 02:31PM

"“The enemy of the strong are the weak, but the enemy of the weak are not the strong, but the weakest yet.”
This quote because it describes what society is like now. The strong refers to the people at the top of society and the weak refers to average people. This quote describes the tendency that people always try to find people that are worse than them as validation when they are worse than someone at something." — Nov 21, 2020 10:21AM

""When he said her name, he felt goose bumps all over him, emotions rushing out of every pore and follicle. It felt right, like all the pieces had just fallen into place. In that moment, he knew for a fact that his feelings for Mai were real."
This quote shows how Sakuta has come to terms with his feelings for Mai and has decided that he was willing to sacrifice everything to keep Mai-San from disappearing." — Nov 07, 2020 11:23AM
