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.

- 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
- Hermes foretold Prometheus about his future punishment and even tried to alert him about it although Prometheus heroism did not let him to back down from his goal. He achieved it. Mortals got a lot of advantages from it. In his own way he is the real hero
- Sometimes even close people around Prometheus who are sometimes supporting him will play with his emotions in order to make him lose his temper. Now I feel apologetic how cruel surrounding can be around Prometheus although fairly he is not trusting everyone . That is the main notion that helped him to go further his journey
- 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.
- 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
- 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
