Odysseus also a firm believer in hospitality; Which explains why he was in such distress after learning of the suitors attempt to take everything he’s ever worked for. Guile is a clever form of deceit. Odysseus was full of it; the perfect example was when he introduced himself to Polyphemus. “My name is Nobody; Mother, father, friends/everyone calls me Nobody.” (IX) Odysseus knew that they would they would try to kill Polyphemus, so He gave him this alias because he was aware that Polyphemus would call for help to the other Cyclopes, and when he did he would sound like an idiot. He also used his guile on Calypso.

After that was all stated he reminded the people how Carsar did turn down the kings crown multiple times, "I thrice presented him a kinlgy crown, Which he did thrice refuse."
The narrator in ATTH, killed because he claimed the old man’s eyes resembled that of a vulture’s and that he felt uncomfortable because he also claimed that whenever they fell on him, his “blood ran cold”.

He could have used a quicker method of killing, instead of haunting the old man for eight days, and enlisting fear into him till his last breath. “I knew that that he had been lying awake ever since the first slight noise…His fears had been ever since growing upon him.” The protagonist in each literature share the same selfish and irrational characteristics; to take away a good leader from it’s people and replace it with a dictator is a selfish and irrational act.

He believes the city is suffering because the murderer of king Laius has not been discovered and punished. He says, “I swear by Apollo that I will bring this to light again” (50-51). In his pride, he is sure he can solve the problems of Thebes. Oedipus’ arrogance continues to grow in the middle of the play. Teiresias says, “All of you here know nothing, and I will not bring our troubles to the light of day” (98-99).
After leaving victorious from the Trojan War, he possesses a sense of pride and invincibility, raiding cities and fueling his need for glory. Yes, Odysseus’s attitude allows him to act cleverly and quickly when placed in tough situations, but it is his foolishness that gets him into dangerous positions in the first place. One example is his encounter with Polyphêmos, the Cyclops. While in the monster’s cave, his companions wish to take needed supplies and leave in order to avoid any trouble that might arise. In spite of this, Odysseus refuses to retreat; he is curious to see what the creature has to

Though he is usually a smart, decisive leader Odysseus does make some mistakes. His worst flaw is falling to temptation. His worst mistakes come with Polyphemos as he first investigates the Kyklops' lair. He ends up getting trapped there, and then can't resist shouting his name to Polyphemos after escaping. After his errors with Polyphemos, Odysseus has his crew tie him up so he can hear but not follow the dangerous song of the Seirenes.

Honoring the valor, enthusiastic and then it get very sad and very touching that mentioned about that love his brother like twin brother that he never had. Because, Rat and Curt Lemon had a lot in common that were making the war like a children playground. And finish the story that “he tells the guy’s sister he’ll look her up when the war’s over” (947).
In these next paragraphs you will be persuaded that this message underlying in the Odyssey is a good message or lesson. Initially, Odysseus uses his brain cunningly, and he doesn’t have to work as hard to get his ending outcome. For example, at the end of the book on page 1158 he basically tells everybody that he is Odysseus, and he has everybody trapped in a room, and he has weapons to kill them. After that point Odysseus easily disposes with all of the suitors, making his work load diminutive. If Odysseus, disguised as the beggar, had outright marched into his home, and tried to kill everyone it would have been much harder seeing as everybody else would have been cautious of a strange man entering the house versus Odysseus working hard to make sure the suitors believed they had nothing to worry about before he massacred them.
