Later, this passerby whom he angrily and quickly killed, was revealed to be Laios, Oedipus' father. Oedipus' anger ...

That is, he will allow the truth to speak for itself. This encourages the crowd to believe him, as an honorable man. He says that he wants them to know the facts; "Censure me in your wisdom, and awake your senses that you may the better judge."

Brutus declares that he never wronged Cae ...

One of my favorite parts of going to the ballpark is listening to the fascinating stories of old timers, the men who have loved the game since child ...
