Actions that echo!!!

I first watched Troy (Film) few years ago. Tonight I sow it again in TV. Well it was a nice film about brave men like Hector and Achilles. Entire community has to suffer the consequences of the actions by Paris,Hector’s brother, but I think entire film surrounds the braveness of the Hector.
There is this saying in, when the times comes it is all about “Fighting and wining or go down with a fight”. Ancient time, people thought they should fight, even when things are blink, even it is a loosing battle. They thought braveness is that. It is like honor. If you run away from a battle like a coward then it is same as dead, just like walking dead body.
I don’t know, what is meaning by braveness , but I do know that, Hector could have avoid the fight, even kill the Achilles by using his forces without going for the face to face fight. I know it is not the best of actions, dirtiest of tricks. People will remember Hector for the shame full act, for his dirty trick. But, But if that happen, Troy will never fallen. Some times running from the battle is the best option of wining it back, is it?
But deep down inside, I feel like what Hector done was the correct thing. He faced the battle like true warrior.
After all, "Men are haunted by the vastness of eternity; and so we ask ourselves: Will our actions echo across the centuries? Will strangers hear our names long after we are gone, and wonder who we were, how bravely we fought, how fiercely we loved?"
