Madeline Miller Quotes

I Saw Then How I Had Changed. I Did Not Mind Anymore That I Lost When We Raced And I Lost When We Swam Out To The Rocks And I Lost When We Tossed Spears Or Skipped Stones. For Who Can Be Ashamed To Lose To Such Beauty? It Was Enough To Watch Him Win, To See The Soles Of His Feet Flashing As They Kicked Up Sand, Or The Rise And Fall Of His Shoulders As He Pulled Through The Salt. It Was Enough.
