response I would like to write for The Iliad. That character is Hector. He was arguably the most monumental soldier that fought for the Trojans. Even though Achilles eventually becomes Hector’s demise‚ while Achilles is away‚ Hector holds his own and really inflicts some damage on the Archean army.

They usually are bluffing throughout their speeches that they give or conversations they have with other humans or gods. Achilles bluffed through a lot of his words.

At first glance envy and anger seem to be simple emotions that one encounters in life. It is not until one looks at the heart of these two deadly vices that one can see their impact on others and society.

The fundamental attitude of the envious is directly opposed to love. To love is to seek others’
