1. Antigone- ” I was born to join in love, not hate- that is my nature.”
I love love this quote! I think it is important that she sticks up for the right thing and what she thinks is right and not want other people want her to do. She kills them with kindness.
2. Ismene- “True my king, the sense we were born with cannot last forever.. commit cruelty on a person long enough and the mind begins to go.”
I think this quote is talking about the innocene we all once had. I think she is trying to say that people get caught up in this person that they would be ashamed of knowing and do not realize it is the way they are acting.
3. Antigone- ” He is my brother and – deny it as you will- your brother too. No one will ever convict me for a traitor. I think this quote is important because she is being loyal to her brother. She is also trying to knock some sense into her sister!!
I agree with your quotes. I think there were many significant parts in this play and you did a great job of selecting three main ones. I also the quote of Antigone standing up for herself to Creon for burying her brother. Great quote!
