hospitality

'There is your dinner friend, the pork of the slaves.Our fat shoats are eaten by the suitors,cold-heated men, who never spare a thought for how they stand in the sight of Zeus. The godsliving in bliss are fond of no wrongdoing,but honor discipline and right behavior.'" - book 14

Eumaius complains about the suitors who have destroyed the estate and he longs for the return of Odysseus, and shares his meat with odysseus. the suitors have been taking to much for granted .
