Cronus’ son has trapped me in madness, blinding ruin –
Zeus is a harsh, cruel god. He vowed to me long ago,
he bowed his head that I should never embark for home
till I had brought the walls of Ilium crashing down.
But now, I see, he only plotted brutal treachery:
now he commands me back to Argos in disgrace,
whole regiments of my men destroyed in battle.
– Homer
The Iliad, Book 2, lines 130-136. Agamemnon blames Zeus for his defeat in battle by the Trojans and the destruction of whole regiments of his army. The king who forced Achilles out of the army fails to take personal responsibility.
