Odyssey Quotations
I read the Odyssey because it was the story of a man who returned home after being absent for more than twenty years and was recognized only by his dog.
Guillermo Cabrera Infante
That particular odyssey is now over. My mind is now at rest.
Andrew Wiles

Raymond Queneau
The Odyssey is the story of Americans up to the point where they are well-established, and even so it is detached from the historical side.
Raymond Queneau
The Odyssey is the story of someone who, in the course of diverse experiences, acquires a personality or affirms and recovers his personality.
Raymond Queneau
It doesn't seem to me that anyone has discovered much that's new since the Iliad or the Odyssey.
Raymond Queneau
One can easily classify all works of fiction either as descendants of the Iliad or of the Odyssey.
Raymond Queneau

Raymond Queneau
I did a play called Throne of Straw when I was 11, at the Odyssey Theatre in Los Angeles. It became really clear to me at that point that I enjoyed acting more than any other experience I was having.
Kiefer Sutherland
A voice expressing emotion in a musical way moves on. It's like the finale of the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968) - the world turns in on itself, as a universe unto itself, in the shape of one human being.
