Achilles: Before my time is over, I will look down upon your corpse and smile.

Hector: All my life I've lived by a code; and the code is simple: Honor the gods, love your woman, and defend your country. Troy is mother to us all. Fight for her!

Menelaus: May the gods keep the wolves in the hills and the women in our beds.

[After Paris is sliced in the leg by Menelaus, during their duel.]

Menelaus: See the crows? They never tasted prince before.

Hector: You speak of war as if it's a game. But how many wives wait at Troy's gates for husbands they'll never see again?

Achilles: Perhaps your brother can comfort them. I hear he's good at charming other men's wives.

[Upon hearing horses, Achilles throws a spear directly into a tree beside Odysseus, as he rides in.]

Odysseus: Your reputation for hospitality is fast becoming legend.
