“He whom I value more than all others, and love as dearly as my own life? I have lost him”

- the Iliad

“When he died, all things soft and beautiful and bright would be buried with him.”

- the Song of Achilles

“Say that there were two boys who raced each other to the sunrise. Say that one went too far, and the other went with him”

- Aristos: the Musical @aristosmusical
