that even till now shone on seven-gated Thebes;…”** (pg. 165 line. 118-120)
 * Character 1:** ** Chorus **
 * Quote 1: « “Sun’s beam, fairest of all
 * Relevance : First quote by the chorus has a very highly old and wise spiritual kind of tone from the chorus. Through entire section the chorus gives an over view of the past and history of Antigone’s family tree.**


 * Quote 2: “There is none so foolish as to love his own death”** (pg. 169 line. 239)
 * Relevance : Chorus giving a kind of wisdom, as they are talking to Creon they verbally seem to interact with him.**


 * Quote 3: “I think you have learned justice – but too late.”** (pg.209 line. 1347)
 * Relevance: The chorus showing almost another side to them as they show a newer harsh side as they sum up what Creon had done.**

These three quotes show three different sides of the Chorus. The first showing the “all knowing “ side that the Chorus takes on as they sum up the more historical parts of Antigone’s history. The second quote shows that besides being this all knowing voice that speaks in the background summing up situations they also even interact with the characters even giving wise advice. The third quote shows a harsher side of the Chorus as they are interacting with the characters again (Creon) they seem to represent the bitterness and loss of the situation.**
