Best Answer

In Greek mythology, men existed in perfect peace and harmony, wanting for nothing, until the gods presented them with woman, in the form of Pandora. With her, they sent a large sealed box, but bade them never to open it. Pandora, created with an innate curiosity that would not be sated, ignored her husbands advice and opened the box anyway, releasing into the world every malady, evil and hardship. Quickly she closed the box, but heard a quite request from within to be released. Fearing more evil, Pandora refused, but this time, when her husband offered advice, she listened, opening the cask to release the last of the beings inside, "Hope". Hope darted along, relieving the pain caused by her brothers and sisters.
