Isn’t it delightful to forget how old we are? - Euripides

So goes the story: but to me
it's hardly plausible
that the sun, with its golden smile,
should turn from its fiery home
to cause mortal misfortune
for mortal rights and wrongs.
But fairy tales that scare us humans
are useful for religion.

Who then will dare to say I'm weak or timid? No, they'll say I'm loyal as a friend, ruthless as a foe, so much like a hero destined for glory.
