Money! Money's the curse of man, none greater.That's what wrecks cities, banishes men from homes,Tempts and deludes the most well-meaning soul,Pointing out the way to infamy and shame." - Creon

Hail the sun! the brightest of all that everDawned on the City of Seven Gates, City of Thebes!Hail the golden dawn over Dirce's riverRising to speed the flight of the white invaders Homeward in full retreat!" - Chorus

I have been a stranger here in my own land: All my life

There was the girl, screaming like an angry bird,When it finds its nest left empt and little ones gone." - Sentry

I am determined that never, if I can help it,Shall evil triumph over good." - Creon

I owe more to the dead, with whom I will spend a much longer time, than I will ever owe to the living.

I owe more to the dead, with whomI will spend a much longer time,than I will ever owe to the living.

May the dead forgive me, I can do no otherBut as I am commanded; to do more is madness." - Ismene, Antigone (The Theban Plays) by Sophocles

May the dead forgive me, I can do no otherBut as I am commanded; to do more is madness." - Ismene
