Hubris was the Greek goddess of unpunished arrogant behavior. Hubris rejects the applicability of laws to oneself because of a false belief in one’s invincibility. At its essence, hubris is the lust to dominate.

A Perfect Storm

Her name was Hybris. I never knew there was a goddess named that. Just thought it was a word.
Cool beans.

And yeah, the ancient Greeks wrote plays about it because it's a human foible. And we haven't changed. In the old days, it meant thinking you could beat the gods.
