I was watching the epic war film Troy for the umpth time. Still, the best scene for me is when King Priam pledge for the return of Hector's brutally killed and inhumanely destroyed body so that King Priam can give his son a proper and ceremonial funeral. King Priam's pledging and begging from Achilles, the very person who just killed his son and very much can kill him in a single blow is a display of bravery or lunacy, at least for me.
However, it was Achilles's line that stucked in my head, "You are a far better king than the one leading this army..."
Bravery and humility can mix and co-exist in the same person at the exact same time, making that person a greater and better person...
