Throughout we find evidence of the pressures on individuals to conform to what society expects from them. For example: girls are not allowed to dance‚ books other than the Bible are frowned upon‚ John Proctor is distrusted by many because he does not go to church regularly. This last example is taken very seriously because the society that Proctor lives in is built on religious principles. Anyone choosing

    “This above all: to thine own self be true.” -William Shakespeare It is amazing how many of us are not true to ourselves. Some of us allow others to define who we are as people. Some of us do not accept ourselves and try to act differently. Some of us do not even love ourselves. Shakespeare’s quote “this above all: to thine own self be true” is perfect advice that tells us to act‚ know‚ and love ourselves as human beings. The first thing I think Shakespeare was trying to tell us was to not
