HERCULES: The Argo?
PHILOCTETES: Yeah. Who do you think taught Jason how to sail? Cleopatra?
I trained all those would-be heroes.
Odysseus, Perseus, Theseus. A lot of yeuseus. And every single one of those bums let me down flatter than a discus. None of'em could go the distance. And then there was Achilles. Now there was a guy who had it all the build, the foot speed. He could jab. He could take a hit. He could keep on comin'. But that furshlugginer heel of his! He barely gets nicked there once and kaboom! He's history. Yeah, I had a dream once. I dreamed I was gonna train the greatest hero there ever was. So great, the gods would hang a picture of him in the stars all across the sky and people would say, That's Phil's boy. That's right. Eh, but dreams are for rookies. A guy can only take so much disappointment.
