    Robert Browning has a quote from his poem, Andrea del Sarto, “Ah, but a man’s reach should exceed his grasp, or what’s a heaven for?” If man’s reach is always supposed to exceed his grasp, why does our reach exceeding our grasp commonly lead to our inevitable destruction? In Homer’s epic the Iliad, Homer greatly emphasizes the homeric pattern and how it plays out through many of the main character's actions.
