* When Leander meets Hero and asks her to help him take revenge for [[spoiler: his father's death]], Hero replies that she can't help him.

* Leander getting sea sick while he is on board.
-->'''Sailor''': Tell the captain we've lost nothing but our passenger's dinner.
* Promachus being a DeadpanSnarker:
-->'''Hipparchus''': It pains me doubly, for the man was my friend and I trusted him.\\
'''Promachus''': Gods… as we have nothing to worry about but prophecies.
* During the chaos surrounding Hipparchus' [[spoiler: death]], Promachus is the only one who is seen [[ActuallyPrettyFunny smiling]].
-->'''Promachus''': ''(smiling)'' They killed the tyrant!\\
'''Echekrates''': ''(angrily)'' He died!
* When Leander meets Hero and asks her to help him take revenge for [[spoiler: his father's death]], Hero replies that she can't help him. Leander, then, points out that she is a Pythia, only for her to tell him that "A Pyhtia speaks for the gods, but the words she speaks are those of men". Leander's face is what sells it.
* Cleisthenes and Isagoras' conversation during a symposium:
-->'''Cleisthenes''': So what do you suggest?\\
'''Isagoras''': An understanding. I think Athens is big enough for the both of us. We might, say, arrange it so that, while one of us is magistrate, the other provides only a token opposition. And so on, of course. One of your men can be magistrate one year, followed by one of ours the next. We can take turns.\\
'''Cleisthenes''': No.\\
'''Isagoras''': No? What do you mean, no?\\
'''Cleisthenes''': I won't insult you by by saying your scheme is exactly like the arrangement the tyrants had, for we are no tyrants, are we? Neither will I offend you by saying you are a fat, low-class, unoriginal and overly ambitious stooge.
* The Poet roasting his brother:
-->'''Kynegeiros''': I was ten. Why I don't remember it?\\
'''The poet''': Because you are still ten.
