I tell you, Zeus with all his arrogance will be brought low. He is already 69 planning the marriage that will throw him from his omnipotence into oblivion. The curse his father, Kronos, spoke when he was driven from his ancient throne will be fulfilled then.

- Prometheus is fearless he will not be surprised by other tortures that Zeus will conduct for him. Hermes notify him that Zeus could inflict pains worse than those he is suffering right now although Prometheus is plucky and perseverant by nature
- Hermes is trying to mislead Prometheus by claiming that mortals will never thank you for your gift and you will be punished in vain although Prometheus is staying on his own. I feel sorry for Prometheus because it is very hard to not to fall apart from your own thoughts and ideas. For Zeus on the other hand the guilt does not eat him up inside. That is very unfair
- At times Prometheus is having megalomania over others and this is making him look moron. I feel sorry for him when he contributed to mortals and got punished but occasionally this trait helped him to overcome Zeus . This feeling of greatness made him aloof
- Here Prometheus is again trying to say that Zeus arrogance will one day turn against him moreover another reason will be his marriage that he is planning. At the end says Prometheus even Gods will not help him to escape his fate fate that he deserves. When this time will arrive he will understand the difference between ruler and slave.
- Chorus are trying to warn Prometheus about holding his tongue. Prometheus threaten Zeus with what he hope will happen although hopefully he is able to see the future. Prometheus is very brave as he is not afraid of even Zeus.

Prometheus is the creative and rebellious spirit which, rejected by God, angrily defies him and asserts itself; Ganymede is the boyish self which is adored and seduced by God. One is the lone defiant, the other the yielding acolyte. As the humanist poet, Goethe presents both identities as aspects or forms of the human condition.
Prometheus as representing mythos (creativity and rebellion) whereas Zeus represents logos.

"Prometheus" is a poem by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, in which the character of the mythic Prometheus addresses God (as Zeus) in misotheist accusation and defiance. The poem was written between 1772 and 1774 and first published in 1789 after an anonymous and unauthorised publication in 1785 by Friedrich Heinrich Jacobi. It is an important work of the Sturm und Drang movement.

The altar of Olympic Zeus is about equally distant from the Pelopium and the sanctuary of Hera, but it is in front of both. Some say that it was built by Idaean Heracles, others by the local heroes two generations later than Heracles.
Describing the Altar of Zeus
-
The god sits on a throne, and he is made of gold and ivory. On his head lies a garland which is a copy of olive shoots. In his right hand he carries a Victory, which, like the statue, is of ivory and gold; she wears a ribbon and – on her head – a garland. In the left hand of the god is a scepter, ornamented with every kind of metal, and the bird sitting on the scepter is the eagle. The sandals also of the god are of gold, as is likewise his robe. On the robe are embroidered figures of animals and the flowers of the lily.
He is describing both the temple, and the throne, of Zeus.
-
Its height up to the pediment is sixty-eight feet, its breadth is ninety-five, its length two hundred and thirty. The architect was Libon, a native. The tiles are not of baked earth, but of Pentelic marble cut into the shape of tiles. The invention is said to be that of Byzes of Naxos, who they say made the images in Naxos on which is the inscription:–
The Temple of Zeus is first described here!

The temple and the image were made for Zeus from spoils, when Pisa was crushed in war by the Eleans,20 and with Pisa such of the subject peoples as conspired together with her. The image itself was wrought by Pheidias, as is testified by an inscription written under the feet of Zeus:– Pheidias, son of Charmides, an Athenian, made me. The temple is in the Doric style, and the outside has columns all around it. It is built of native stone.

The main feature of iA Writer is not having many features. The program is, essentially, a white rectangle, where the user can do little else but type in a custom monospaced font. There are no headers, footers, drawing tools, or chatty paper-clip assistants. The bare-bones interface uses special characters in a simple formatting language called Markdown to bold, italicize, or otherwise transform text—a way of encouraging writers to keep their hands on the keyboard and their minds on their work.
Using a completely blank page as the start of any creative endeavor is a miserable choice for writing. Start with some other object and annotate either on it or next to it. Look at something else as a base. Starting with blank nothing is a recipe for loneliness and disaster. So-called distraction free writing tools are the worst.
Didn't Ernest Hemmingway analogize staring at a blank page like facing a white bull? There is a litany of quotes about writers facing the blank page.
Why not, instead, use the advice of ancient rhetors by starting with the best? Become a bee and collect the best materials for your honey first. If we don't look to them, then perhaps follow the lesson taught by Benjamin Franklin on writing or the same lesson repeated in the movie Finding Forrester. Start with someone else's work and rewrite that until you find your own words. This is what makes writing while annotating so easy and simple. You've got a nice tapestry of textures to begin your work.
Giving birth to something fully formed as if from the head of Zeus is a fallacy. It only works for the gods.

Zeus no longer turned his radiant eyes toward Troy, for in his heart he did not believe a single one of the immortal gods would move 10 to give assistance to the Trojans or Danaans.
Interesting Zeus would feel this way considering the interference from gods in past chapters. Yes, Zeus has asserted his dominance but I think it is rather un becoming of him to think that other gods would simply forget about the mortal men who fuel their existence. At least it is clear to me that there would be further foul play.
