Prince Telemachus

"He won't be gone long from the native land he loves not even if iron shackles bind your father down. He's plotting a way to journey home at last; he's never at a loss."

-Prince Telemachus
Book 1 Athena Inspires the Prince
[197-226]

I admired this quote because it shows that his father never gives up and will somehow find a way back. Odysseus is believed to be dead, but his son doesn't believe so. Threatening the suitors that have come up to marry Athena, Telemachus's mother. This also starts up the rise of the prince into power, as he starting to become what his father had put upon his kingdom
