“Death is near, and black, not at a distance, not to be evaded. Long ago this hour must have been to Zeus’s liking and to the liking of his archer son. They have been well disposed before, but now the appointed time’s upon me. Still, I would not die without delivering a stroke, or die ingloriously, but in some action memorable to men in days to come.”
— Hector in Homer’s Iliad translated by Robert Fitzgerald
