Antigone

The one significant quote form reading so far was "Courage. You live but my soul has been dead for a long time now. It died so as to serve our dead."
My analysis of this quote is that, Antigone believed that her life was complete by helping bury her brother, Eteocles.  By burying her brother completing her life, her soul had died and she was trying to rid herself of the body holding her back from her brother.
