Quoted: Appius Claudius

"Each man is the architect of his own fate." 

In your first blog entry, you should 
(1) Express the first book of the Aeneid from the perspective of Achates, the unsung friend of Aeneas.
(2) Have Achates discuss the role of fate in driving Aeneas forward.  Does he believe that Aeneas is fated to take this journey?  Does he accept his own role in it as fated, or like Appius Claudius (and Jack Dawson), does he believe that a real man makes his own luck?
