“So, you ask me the name I’m known by, Cyclops?
I will tell you. But you must give me a guest-gift
as you’ve promised. Nobody —that’s my name" (Hinds 134).
I chose this quote because it distinguishes Odysseus from other classical heroes. In this scene he uses deception in order to overpower a foe rather than using brute power. This helps convey the idea that knowledge can equate to power.
