Who is the noble and honorable man

I think the nobler and greater and mostly the honorable man was Paris. Why? Because Paris sacrifice the trust of his brother and all his men by taking Helen out of Sparta causing war because of his love to Helen.Paris love Helen so much that no one could stop or break Paris love for Helen even it brings death or war for his family because of his true love for the girl. That moment Menelaus heard the news that his wife Helen went to troy with Paris that’s why he decided to go to troy and bring back his wife to him. They raised a fleet of one thousand ships and went to Troy to secure Helen's return.

When they reached troy Menelaus challenges Paris to a duel for Helen's return, so who ever wins gets Helen and no one could acclaim or challenge anymore what ever happens. Menelaus soundly beats Paris, but before he can kill him and claim victory Aphrodite spirits Paris away inside the walls of Troy. Still Paris did not sacrifice his love for Helen and give Helen to Menelaus after the fight that’s why it cost war to troy that’s how honorable and noble man is Paris he will not give up his love what ever happens to his family and to his life because of his love to Helen.

 

Even thought Paris is a noble and honorable man in the story iliad he is describe as unskilled and cowardly because of this he show his cowardly and unskilled by using a bow and arrow emphasizes this, even he does not follow the code of honor of the other heroes or gods, he is still the honorable and greater and noble man for me because he did not sacrifice the love for the girl that he really truly love. Also in this incident I further conclude that Paris was the nobler and greater and honorable man that I can imagine because of his love. Also in this instance Paris shows the love for Helen is not a joke he still fight even thought he is already down to his knees Paris and Menelaus duel in an attempt to end the war without further bloodshed. Menelaus easily defeats Paris, though Aphrodite spirits him away before Menelaus can finish the duel. Paris is returned to his bedchambers where Aphrodite forces Helen to be with him.

I can cite as a modern Paris only is me because even thought me and my girlfriend is far from each other I still fight my love for he and never give up in the trials and challenges in our relationship also even may parents put me down to not have a girlfriend yet I still insist because of my love for her I can get inspirations and knowledge how life will be better and to be more efficient in the life and to the future days. Also I can know what is more efficient in a relationship even my parents and any other person does not like who I want to be with is still know the one I love will never be out of my side because I know she loves me and I really love her so mush that’s why I can be the Paris of her life and even in the real life of my self.
