She once said, ""If you always greatly honor with kindness the kindly ones, you will surely be preeminent, keeping your land and city in the straight path of justice."  (Athena. Aeschylus, Eumenides 992). She uses her intellect wisely to guide her to what she believes is the correct choice.

Athena was born the goddess of wisdom, war, and crafts, from Zeus’s forehead, the result of him swallowing his wife. "She was almost always
shown wearing the armor with which she was born, the Aegis breastplate given her by her beloved father, Zeus, and carrying arms – either sword, spear, or sometimes, the
lightning bolts that only she was allowed by Zeus to share." (Ancient Greece). Athena is also closely related to the city of Athens, as they accepted her as their patron.
