that was my heart when time was a seed

[timeripple]

Oh, Homer, baby. Why did I ever leave you? *snuggles*

I mean, come on:

οὐ γάρ τίς μοι ἔτ᾽ ἄλλος ἐνὶ Τροίῃ εὐρείῃ
ἤπιος οὐδὲ φίλος, πάντες δέ με πεφρίκασιν.
(Il. 24.775).

I don't even have a word awesome enough for πεφρίκασιν, that's how awesome this is.

Could well be--I keep meaning to check it on the OED online when I'm on campus and then forgetting. Greek is just full of awesome words like that (apoptuein is another favorite of mine, meaning to spit out. Go on, say it).
