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.

It is the creator of fiction's point of view; it is the character who interests him. Sometimes he wants to convince the reader that the story he is telling is as interesting as universal history.

The Iliad is the private lives of people thrown into disorder by history.

One Moment in Time because I think it describes me as a person and how I felt about being on the show.

A myth is a lie that conceals or reveals a truth. But if it reveals even a strand of history or truth, that's what gets my adrenaline going.
