Creon

"Yet, it’s impossible to understand the soul, the mind the wisdom of any man before he’s tested by the great power and laws. Indicates the gods. And I feel this: that a man is of no use to his city if he’s to govern it by wisdom though by a tongue silenced by some fear. And if a man places anything above his city in friendship, that man I think is worthy of disdain. Always did, always will." This is a quote made by Creon. This told me that Creon seems to be a strict person of law. He is also is a person of action, and powerful words. He thinks of his city Thebes before anything. I don't think that Creon would let anyone go against his city.These qualities can sometimes be good in a king and sometimes not. Creon can go by these rules and be a good leader by protecting Thebes, or a bad one by making laws people are against.
