    Ramya Gopalakrishnan In the play Antigone by Sophocles‚ the character Teiresias observes “Think: all men make mistakes‚ but a good man yields when he knows his course is wrong‚ and repairs the evil: the only crime is pride.” This quote can be interpreted as; even good people make mistakes‚ but what actually defines them as good is realizing they were wrong and fixing it.

    Olawunmi Ajibola July 10th 2013 Cicero once stated that “… The greater the difficulty the grater the glory …” My interpretation of this would be in order to fulfill ones goals or desires you most struggle to get there‚ the more you struggle the more satisfaction you’ll feel in the end. I agree with this statement because in this world and generation we are living in things don’t come easy. One most work hard for what they want. In order to get from point A to point B you must
