Want to answer more questions in the Work & School category?
Maybe give some free advice about: School?
if looking at the character of Odysseus (lets call him O)
then cunning vs. strength is that he uses his mind over force
i just finished reading the book...so basically
in the case of the Kyklopes, he couldnt very well kill him; he wasnt strong enough and they would have been trapped; so he used his mind. He devised a plan; poked out his eye; and used his intellegence to ride out on the Rams (or sheep i forget)
he used his mind over his muscles in order to get out
hope it helped...
