KASSANDRA : One thing left. I want to sing my own dirge. I pray to the sun, to this last minute of life: let my enemies pay with blood for what they did to me— I’m just a killed slave, easy fistful of death. But you, O humans, O human things— when a man is happy, a shadow could overturn it. When life goes wrong, a wet sponge erases the whole picture. You, you, I pity.
An Oresteia: Agamemnon by Aiskhylos; Elektra by Sophokles; Orestes by Euripides
