Agamemnon: When are you going to find a woman, Achilles? When are you going to grow out of this… companionship? He cannot bear you a son.
Achilles: Companionship? Agamemnon, our love is more than a companionship. Patroclus can give me more than a son ever could. He’s the only one who truly took the time to understand me. A man who followed me without question.
Agamemnon: like a subordinate? Or a pet perhaps?
Achilles: No, like my lover. He is my beloved.
Patroclus: and half his soul as the poets say.
