They believed the gluttony and disobedience are negative traits.
They believed that the gods punish people for acting badly.
They believed in the importance of strength in battle.
Odysseus tells about his men who ate the sheep and drank the wine until their stomach was full. After they were full the Cicones' army attacked them which was a consequence of the butcher nature of his men. Greeks had the idea that the punishment for gluttony and disobedience is sure to come. They believed that one should be brave and fearless while fighting in a battle. For them, the God was omniscient who rewarded or punished people of their dead.

Character sketch for the short story "Condensed Milk" - each affirmation is followed by evidence.
The narrator is a man, an adult. He is most likely an intellectual who was, somehow, involved with politics: "There was no reason for us politicals to be there..."
The narrator is mentally and psychologically exhausted, as well as physically sick: "Inside there was only an empty scorched sensation, and we were indifferent to everything, making plans no further than the next day." "I rolled up my pants and showed the breaks in the skin from scurvy."
<u>Even though his main concern is to stay alive, he is still capable of strong emotions and petty revenges. He is smart and determined, enough to escape a trap that would lead to his death</u>: "It was, of course, a weak, worthless act of vengeance just like all my feelings. But what else could I do? Warn the others? I didn’t know them. But they needed a warning."
