More quotes by Homer
It behooves a father to be blameless if he expects his child to be.
Homer
Shame greatly hurts or greatly helps mankind.
Homer

Homer
Not vain the weakest, if their force unite.
Homer
Look, I'm not asking you to like me, I'm not asking you to put yourself in a position where I can touch your goodies, I'm just asking you to be fair.
Homer
Like a girl, a baby running after her mother, begging to be picked up, and she tugs on her skirts, holding her back as she tries to hurry off—all tears, fawning up at her, till she takes her in her arms… That’s how you look, Patroclus, streaming live tears.
Homer

Homer
If you are very valiant, it is a god, I think, who gave you this gift.
Homer
Have patience, heart.
Homer
Canada? Why would I want to leave America just to visit America, Jr.?
Homer
It is equally wrong to speed a guest who does not want to go, and to keep one back who is eager. You ought to make welcome the present guest, and send forth the one who wishes to go.
Homer
...if fifty bands of men surrounded us/ and every sword sang for your blood,/ you could make off still with their cows and sheep.
Homer
There is a time for many words, and there is also a time for sleep.
Homer
Noblest minds are easiest bent.
Homer
Without question it may be said of Vancouver that her position, geographically, is Imperial to a degree, that her possibilities are enormous, and that with but a feeble stretch of the imagination those possibilities might wisely be deemed certainties.
Homer
