The legend of Prometheus in the Greek Mythology goes as such:
Prometheus stole fire from the Gods to give it to humans. For this act,
Prometheus was punished by Zeus with eternal torment. He was bound
to a rock for eternity , where each day an eagle feeds on his liver, which
would grow back the very next day, due to immortality, and would be
eaten again.
In the Western tradition, Prometheus became a figure who represented
the human quest for scientific knowledge, and the risk of overreaching
and unintended consequences. He was regarded as a lone genius whose
efforts to improve the human existence could also result in tragedy .
An instance of this is when this famous author gave the name ‘Modern
Day Prometheus’ as a subtitle to her cult classic novel X.

love with it, not realizing that it was just an image. Unable to leave the

80. 1. In May 2017, X said he needed a name for the first tunnelling
machine of his newly founded Boring Company. He got one, taking
inspiration from one of the seminal texts of existential doubt and
procrastination: Samuel Beckett’s 1953 play, Y. “First machine is Godot”,
X said in a tweet. “Still waiting ... Don't know why, when or where.”
This “waiting” is a reference to the play itself, in which Vladimir and
Estragon do next to nothing in a blasted heath, hanging around to meet
the never-seen Godot. But X might also be saying that his first tunnelling
machine is also kicking its heels; waiting around and doing nothing.

X met Y in February of 1907, and the two established a firm friendship,
and corresponded extensively over a period of six years. X had
described the, then young, Y as his heir to psychoanalysis. However, as Y
began to expand his own theories and dissented with the basic tenets of
X-ian theory, the relationship started turning sour. This eventually led to
a highly hostile exchange of letters between the two, and Y’s resignation
as chairman from the International Psychoanalytic Congress, where he
had been elected with support from X.
Y went on to form his own school of thought, known as analytical
psychology, while X continued to develop his own views of psychology.
