Achilles: Apparently you won some great victory. Agamemnon: Ah, Perhaps you didn't notice. The Trojan beach belonged to Priam in the morning. It belongs to Agamemnon in the afternoon. Achilles: You can have the beach. I didn't come here for sand. Agamemnon: No. You came here because you want your name to last through the ages. A great victory was won today, but that victory is not yours. Kings did not kneel to Achilles. Kings did not pay homage to Achilles. Achilles: Perhaps the kings were too far behind to see, the soldiers won the battle. Agamemnon: History remembers kings! Not soldiers! Tomorrow we'll batter down the gates of Troy! I'll build monuments to victory on every island of Greece. I'll carve "Agamemnon" in the stone. Achilles: Be careful, king of kings. First you need the victory. Agamemnon: Your men sacked the temple of Apollo, yes? Achilles: You want gold? Take it. It's my gift to honour your courage. Take what you wish. Agamemnon: I already have. Aphareus! Haemon! Agamemnon: The spoils of war. Achilles: No argument with you, brothers. But if you don't release her, you'll never see home again. Decide! Agamemnon: Guards! Briseis: Stop! Too many men have died today. If killing is your only talent, that's your curse. I don't want anyone dying for me. Agamemnon: Mighty Achilles, silenced by a slave girl. Tonight I'll have her give me a bath, and then, who knows? Achilles: You sack of wine! Before my time is done, I will look down on your corpse and smile.
