Denzel as mimesis of Nestor in Renaissance period

But the man, though he drives the slower horses, who take his advantage, keeps his eye
always on the post and turns tight, ever watchful, pulled with the ox-hide reins on the course, as
in the beginning, and holds his horses steady in hand, and watches the leader.
- Nestor

I will stand on my own name.

Isnt he a good counselor? Well, it is sad to say but in this generation Nestor may see as
garrulous and unnecessary, or as a useless adjunct to the Achaian army. But is he really that
kind of man?

You already heard me saying his name, meaning hes the one I always see every time I
look at the mirror. It would be better if Im going to ask it in myself? Am I really that man:
garrulous and unnecessary, or as a useless in the society? Well Ive been told. But it doesnt
end here. I proclaim myself as a wise counselor because I motivate almost everyone very well
even though it is unavoidable that some people see me as a ridiculous figure, like Nestor. I may
not be old to experience all, but who cares; age is just a number, they say. I am not a great
man, but Im a good leader, and my digressive tales frequently motivate everyone to perform
some necessary action by challenging them to live up to heroic ideals that I myself upheld in my
past years. Like Nestor, I always tell my stories about how I turned into what I am right now,
making them to encourage more in their lives. I think our purpose is to motivate an individual or
a group to action. We both have the ability to soothe hard feelings, to use praise as a means for
motivation, and to make tactful suggestions to a king are all acquired through experience.

I may be too young to act like Nestor, but age is nothing to do with experience. Im still a
learner indeed, grasping for more knowledge then sharing my experience to others. I still have a
long journey, too lucky to think that my duty, and Nestors, is just about to start. I, a counselor,
am just about to start.
