Quote of the Patch
'Some writers identify three of \[the Erinyes\], whom they name Alecto, Tisiphone, and Megaera, but they are usually neither named nor counted. They were described by Aeschylus as frighteningly hideous, but were seldom shown so in art.' ~Crowell's Handbook of Classical Mythology (E. Tripp)

Quote of the Patch
'And I saw Sisyphus too, bound to his own torture,
grappling his monstrous boulder with both arms working,
heaving, hands struggling, legs driving, he kept on
thrusting the rock uphill toward the brink.'
~The Odyssey (Homer; R. Fagles translation)
