"you knew my edict? " creon asked. "yes," antigone replied. "and you transgressed the law? " "your law, but not the law of justice who dwells with the gods," antigone said. "the unwritten laws of heaven are not of today nor yesterday, but from all time."
–"the royal house of thebes"
but although the romans were clever, they sometimes did stupid things. they thought very little of their own women, and they did not understand that many of the women of britain were as brave and as wise as the men, and quite as difficult to conquer.
–"the story of a warrior queen"

which theme do the two passages have in common?

the law of the gods is higher than human law.

cleverness is better than strength.

one must follow one’s own moral code, no matter the price.

breaking the rules gets you into trouble.
