Book 14 notes and quotes

Quotes
"There is your dinner friend, the pork of the slaves. Our fat shoats are eaten by the suitors, cold-heated men, who never spare a thought for how they stand in the sight of Zeus. The gods living in bliss are fond of no wrong doing, but honor discipline and right behavior."- Eumaius tells him that the gods have hindered his master's return. He slaughters two young pigs and shares the meat with Odysseus and says that quote
He was there for seven years, during which he was freed and amassed another fortune. In the eighth year, he was taken in by a Phoenician adventurer who"[A Phoenician adventurer] took me in completely with his schemes, and led me with him to Phoinikia...he meant in fact, to trade me off, and get a high price for me."

Notes-
O reaches Eumaeus' hut in the disguise of a beggar and is almost attacked by the dogs. Eumaeus welcomes him badly, while also being sad of the loss of his master, O, and the evil deeds of the suitors. O tries to convince the swineherd about his master's imminent return, but Eumaeus asks him not to speak bad words in the hope of receiving gifts. O then relates a long and good tale of his history and where he was at. He claims to be the son of a wealthy man from Crete and to have fought at Troy. He again claims to have heard things of O, but Eumaeus will not believe him. Eumaeus sacrifices the best of the pigs for O's dinner, and O is pleased by his swineherd's treatment of a stranger (begger, which actually is O). That night it rains a lot, and O decides to test whether his swineherd will be good enough to give him his own cloak. He makes a lie and tell a story in which O succeeds in getting him a cloak when he is without one in the battle of Troy. The swineherd, happy that O is being praised, gives his guest his cloak easily. O is made comfortable for the night, while the swineherd goes out to sleep with the pigs, underneath the hollow of a rock.
