I'll tell you a secret. Something they don't teach you in your temple. The Gods envy us. They envy us because we're mortal, because any moment might be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we're doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again.

@iAmNathanSas I agree. I've been literally hoping someone would upload this scene. I remained a bit puzzled to see it hadn't been.The words were so profound, surely it struck a chord with someone I thought to myself. Reminds me of the quote from Han in tokyo drift "Life is simple. You make choices and you don't look back". I'm still waiting for that scene to be uploaded as well.
She was captured by his own soldiers, thrown into his tent for his amusement, taken to the king where she was beaten and she's supposed to thank him for his insightful speech? I thought her comment was perfect. She falls for him later that night anyway.
@libville No that's not the whole story. Agamemnon gives her to his soldiers cause he considers them to need some amusement because of their terrible loss earlier that day. But Achilles saves her from being raped and most likely beaten to death by the soldiers.
best quote ever!

Simply beautiful. Troy is one of the few movies I can watch over and over again and never get tired of it.

Forget about Pitt's performance on the rules of Fight Club. This is his finest moment.
