Your questions is not so clear, but I will try to answer it as I understand it.
I am a native Spanish speaker so you can trust my answer, if there is a problem with it, it is due the missing information in the question, but I think we can work it out for the best.
In Spanish when you want to make any negative setence in any tense we do not use an auxliliary verb as you do in English, we simply add the word:
No before the verb, for example in:
Yo no <u>quería</u> bailar en la fiesta. (I didn´t <u>wan</u>t to dance at the party)
Mi hermana no <u>piensa</u> antes de hablar. (My sister doesn't <u>think</u> before talking)
No me <u>hables</u>, no <u>quiero</u> nada. (Don't <u>talk</u> to me, I <u>want</u> nothing)
In Spanish we Simply use the Negative Adverb:
No

One of the themes is that the author want his readers to know that there is more to life then we can see, or that a building/ strengthening a friendship is worth more than any treasure.

In Book XII of Homer's The Odyssey, Odysseus and his men are leaving the land of Circe and she advises them on where to go next. She tells them that they will run into Scylla or Charydbis. She told Odysseus that while Scylla would eat 6 of his men, the ship and the remaining men would be safe to continue their journey. On the other hand, if he sailed near Charydbis, it would swallow the whole ship and eat all men. It was a clear decision to make because it was preferable to lose only part of his crew than everyone.
