ODYSSEUS
No, as equals of the noblest men, with whom you must storm Troy's walls and demolish the city, as destiny proclaims.
PHILOKTETES
No, I'll do anything but that, Odysseus.
I still have my seacliff.
ODYSSEUS
What did you have in mind?
PHILOKTETES
To throw myself from the rocks above and break myself on the rocks below.
ODYSSEUS
Take him! Keep him from jumping!
