A review by terhangus
Antigone by Sophocles

5.0

????????? i have no words i am just. my thoughts are summed up in this set of comparison and why it's so effective in making me just wanna weep.

ANTIGONE:
But leave me to my own absurdity, leave me
to suffer this—dreadful thing. I will suffer
nothing as great as death without glory.


/

TIRESIAS (to CREON):
...Stubbornness
brands you for stupidity—pride is a crime.
No, yield to the dead!
Never stab the fighter when he's down.
Where's the glory, killing the dead twice over?


p.s. haemon is bae and i'm so sad that he died. rip to the most decent guy in this play
