Answer:

pride.

Explanation:

This scene, one of the most intriguing ones in the Odyssey, shows at once Odysseus´ pride and trickery, for in having successfully blinded the Cyclops, as he is making his escape along with his men, he yells at the Cyclops Polyphemus that it was him, Odysseus, who blinded him, but he doesn´t use his actual name, but an epithet that Homer uses in other passages to refer to Odysseus, and the epithet means “nobody”: the cyclops complains to other cyclops that he was blinded by “nobody”.

Pride would be your answer.

Odysseus' pride gets the best of him. Back then, you wanted people to know who you were by your achievements.

Answer:

Explanation:

Everyone loves the first day of school, right? New year, new classes, new friends. It's a day full of potential and hope, before all the dreary depressions of reality show up to ruin all the fun.I like the first day of school for a different reason, though. You see, I have a sort of power. When I look at people, I can...sense a sort of aura around them. A colored outline based on how long that person has to live. Most everyone I meet around my age is surrounded by a solid green hue, which means they have plenty of time left.A fair amount of them have a yellow-orangish tinge to their auras, which tends to mean a car crash or some other tragedy. Anything that takes people "before their time" as they say.The real fun is when the auras venture into the red end of the spectrum, though. Every now and again I'll see someone who's basically a walking stoplight. Those are the ones who get m*rd*red or k*ll themselves. It's such a rush to see them and know their time is numbered.With that in mind, I always get to class very early so I can scout out my classmates' fates. The first kid who walked in was basically radiating red. I chuckled to myself. Too da.mn bad, bro. But as people kept walking in, they all had the same intense glow. I finally caught a glimpse of my rose-tinted reflection in the window, but I was too stunned to move. Our professor stepped in and locked the door, his aura a sickening shade of green.
