In Greek mythology, Laërtes (/leɪˈɜːrtiːz/; Greek: Λαέρτης, Laértēs) was the son of Arcesius and Chalcomedusa. He was the father of Odysseus (who was thus called Laertiádēs, Λαερτιάδης, "son of Laertes") and Ctimene by his wife Anticlea, daughter of the thief Autolycus. Laërtes was an Argonaut and participated in the hunt for the Calydonian Boar. Laërtes's title was King of the Cephallenians, an ethnic group who lived both on the Ionian islands and on the mainland. which he presumably inherited from his father Arcesius and grandfather Cephalus. His realm included Ithaca and surrounding islands, and perhaps even the neighboring part of the mainland of other Greek city-states.
Another account says that Laërtes was not Odysseus's true father; rather, it was Sisyphus, who had seduced Anticlea.
Laertes stays away from Odysseus' home while Odysseus is gone. He keeps to himself on his farm, overcome with grief over Odysseus' absence and alone after his wife, Anticleia, died from grief herself. Odysseus finally comes to see Laertes after he has killed all the suitors competing for Penelope. He finds his father spading a plant, looking old and tired and filled with sadness. Odysseus keeps his identity to himself at first, identifying himself only as Quarrelman, only son of King Allwoes (in the Fitzgerald translation of Homer), but when he sees how disappointed Laertes is to learn that this "stranger" has no news of his son, Odysseus reveals himself, and proves his identity by reciting all the trees he received from Laertes when he was a boy. This emphasis on the land of Ithaca itself perhaps signifies that Odysseus has finally reconnected with his homeland, and his journey is over.

Emotions that make our loneliness More deep, clear and awful. As nails that dig died skins, As eyes that bleed making skins acid As hair that strangles the crowdís voices Thus we, Remain suspended in this air rarefied by thoughts to make us more conscious of the restless lack of the Hope from us ...

These days I don't have a clue
About this thing called love
And all the things it puts us through
And I used to hold it like heaven above
But I love it when you call me "baby"
We've been hanging out a while now
Trying so hard not to say
Three little words that weigh so heavily
And could really blow our cold away
But I love it when you call me "baby"
We've both been there before
All broken hearted and sore
And you can never ever be sure
But there's something about this
Makes me want more
These days I don't have a clue
About this thing called love
And all the things it puts us through
And I used to hold it like heaven above
But I love it when you call me
I love it when you call me
I love it when you call me "baby"
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, baby
