About This Quote

If a Greek woman tells you to do something, you do it. Is a quote from the movie 300. In the movie, King Leonidas asks his wife how she knows that the Persians are coming. She replies that “when a Greek woman tells you to do something, you do it.” This is one of many quotes from this movie which is a good example of how people should be treated they should be treated as equals.

Not as inferior people or as superior people. They should be treated as equals and respected for their opinion and the way they live their lives.
