The line shows the conflict between humans and God. Creon refused to take the advice of others and did not do it deliberately.
Explanation:
- Creon is very stubborn and did not listen to anyone. He was very proud and believed that he was always correct. Creon is the uncle of Antigone.
- Antigone wanted to bury her brother but Creon says he was a traitor and refuses his burial. She strongly believes that laws made by kings are imperfect and the laws made by God is perfect.
- Later when Antigone kills herself, he understands that he has done something against God's wish. He understand that he should not discard religion as it provides stability to humans.
Incomplete question. However, I assumed you are referring to the story, "Fahrenheit" 451 by Ray Bradbury.
<u>Explanation:</u>
For example, in the novel, the character Clarisse is portrayed as someone who appreciates nature, so much so that she finds time always to observe creation even though most people in her community are preoccupied with work and entertainment that they lack the time to do so.
Another character is Mildred, the wife of Montag, she is portrayed as someone who has a love for entertainment that is so strong to the extent it overshadows that of her husband. Her behavior contrast with that of Clarisse who has a healthy view of entertainment.
What the author, Montag is saying through his characters is that
- those in his society do not value human life, recall we were told the police don't punish those who over speed, thus accidents occur often.
- those in his society are less concerned about their families; which was made evident in the case of Mildred.
