Plato

The following lines from the play serve as one example of the theme of morality versus law:

CHORUS:  

Thou hast withstood authority

A self-willed rebel, thou must die.  

The chorus states that, by going against Creon’s order and defying his authority, Antigone must die. She’s a “self-willed rebel” for choosing to follow her moral path rather than obey a law she thought was unjust.

CREON (To ANTIGONE)

Now answer this plain question, yes or no,

Wast thou acquainted with the interdict?

ANTIGONE

I knew, all knew; how should I fail to know?

CREON

And yet wert bold enough to break the law?

ANTIGONE

Yea, for these laws were not ordained of Zeus,

And she who sits enthroned with gods below,

Justice, enacted not these human laws.

Nor did I deem that thou, a mortal man,

Could'st by a breath annul and override

The immutable unwritten laws of Heaven.
