... exercised his full authority as head of the Olympians. “When Zeus looked down from Mount Olympus and fire gleaming among Prometheus’ mortals, he controlled the fire in his heart. With cruel laughter he decided how he would punish the mankind” (Rosenberg and Baker 106). Sometimes it is not a direct insult against the gods but an error in judgement.
