Gratitude – Let me offer the way the King of the Persians displayed his gratitude to the sea captain who saved his life – I bet you can imagine. On second thoughts … definitely not.
What about the Athenians? Themistocles, the man who took the right meaning from the Delphi Oracle’s prophecy, no easy thing, then masterminded the whole Salamis thing getting everybody to do what he wanted even though in almost every case it was the exact opposite of what they wanted to do – Persians and Greeks – what can you do for the man who saved Athens. Who saved all of Greece.
Well you won’t believe the real answers.
