Quotes About Argus

I'll never call you 'girl' again," Argus said to me. "A woman twice your age would envy your cunning!" "If I were still 'Glaucus,' you'd say I was smart or clever, not cunning," I chided him. "Pfff! What does one little word matter?" "So you won't mind if I call the Argo a ferryboat?" I replied sweetly.
~ Esther M. Friesner

~ Ovid
Then dark death seized Argus, as soon as he had seen Odysseus in the twentieth year.
~ Homer
