If you need inspiration, watch "300". It's about King Leonides and the Spartans at Thermopoly (Thermopylae for you purists).
Aspects of Spartan culture may be offensive to us moderns, but they understood freedom and duty, virtue and honor, courage and sacrifice.
We could do with a little of that.

Gads I'm behind on everything it seems. I really want to see that movie. However as I hate theaters - I refused to see it there.
ReplyDeleteOne of these days I'll get hold of it and watch it. I'm just trying to figure out if I should buy a movie I know I'll like right now... or wait until we finally get an HD player of some sort... decisions decisions. (yeah, I'm too lazy to go rent movies anymore *grin*)
It's a wonderful movie, and Stephen Pressfield's "Gates of Fire" (about the battle, with some great background) is also a fine book.
