    The most admirable character in The Crucible in my opinion was John Proctor. He was admirable because of the way he stood up to his past failures that he had done in his life. He stood up for what was right and didn’t care what the consequences were for his actions. For instance he went and testified to the court to try and free his innocent wife. He also was willing to face the punishment of adultery to help free the innocent. He too was willing to wreak his reputation for the good of the town.
