Alas, what evil government in Hellas!
When the public sets a war memorial up
Do those who really sweated get the credit?
Oh no! Some general wangles the prestige!-
Who, brandishing his one spear among thousands,
Did one man’s work, but gets a world of praise.
These self-important fathers of their country
Think they’re above the people. Why, they’re nothing!

Andromache This sounds like our politicians: they think they’re all that. They’re all a bunch of dicks/weiners |
