Summary
This quote suggests that creative individuals, when they look at themselves or reflect on their artistry, see the qualities and traits of Prometheus rather than Pandora. Prometheus, in Greek mythology, is associated with innovation, intelligence, and bravery for bringing fire to humanity. In contrast, Pandora is also from Greek mythology, famously known for opening a forbidden box that released all the evils into the world. The quote implies that creative individuals focus on their ability to bring positive change and enlightenment through their work, rather than dwelling on potential negative consequences or outcomes.
