Elizabeth's Self-Controlled Quotes
Elizabeth’s self-controlled trait helped her survive through each obstacle that was thrown to her. She mange her tempter when she found out about Johns affair for this she also did not judge him by saying (Miller 1124) “I do not judge you. The magistrate sits in your heart that judges you”. This shows how well she’s able to control herself and shows how good of Christian women she is for not judging her own husband but letting him judge his own mistake.

    Elizabeth Leefolt's 'Employer Of Aibileen'

    Like her best friend Hilly, Elizabeth falls squarely into the villain/bully/ child abuser category, though we admit we find her a little more sympathetic than Hilly. Not that this excuses her, but she seems particularly vulnerable to Hilly's whims because of her borderline economic status. Although her mother, Miss Fredericks, is rich, Elizabeth…

    Elizabeth Proctor Sacrifice In The Crucible

    When she first found out about the affair, she made John feel the guilt of the affair every day; but in the end she admits that deep within herself she knew all along that John’s affair with Abigail wasn’t completely his fault, and that she ‘kept a cold house.’ She does not just blame him for their marriage going wrong as she seemed to do earlier in the play, but instead she admits she is also capable of self-criticism. When she admitted this, she showed her loyalty and love for John, ultimately making up for treating him badly in the beginning of the play. An admirable character always ends up doing something good that overcomes the evil that the character previously exerted. I believe Elizabeth truly was able to overcome her anger and was able to make up for all her sins at the end of the play, thus making her one of the most admirable characters in the…

    John Proctor Is a Good Man

    Throughout the story, John expresses qualities of an honest man by defending his wife Elizabeth when she is accused of hurting Abigail. John defends Elizabeth” Herrick! Herrick don’t chain her” (page 177: Proctor) in many ways despite the hardship they have been going through with their marriage.

    Pride in the Crucible

    Elizabeth Proctor is first founds singing to her children in her kitchen in the opening of act two. This is in contrasts with frenzy at the end of act one. Elizabeth is trying to make her husband turn in Abigail as a witch. She seems sly about it and this exposes her pride. She has pride that she is able to punish Abigail for hurting her. Not this is an unjustifiable pride, but Elizabeth picks on john to do her dirty work to the point John says, "You will not judge me more, Elizabeth….Let you look to your own improvement before you judge your husband anymore"(act 2). The act of the accusation will prove to Elizabeth the affair is over. Elizabeth has a strong sense that she is the only one safe in the issue, for she has done no wrong, who is to accuse her or anything? But Elizabeth's immunity to the trials cause her to get taken to court for owning poppets, which in fact, are owned by her servant, Mary Warren.…

She is constantly volunteering at shelters, schools and in the community. She seeks to mentor others to follow in her footsteps by practicing honorable acts in order to ensure the acts are continued by her students as well.…

    The Crucible Rewrite

    In the rewrite, I was responsible for Elizabeth’s character. My partner, John, and chose to create the scene where Abigail is fired from her position as subservient because we both felt there was a lot of room for interpretation. I chose Elizabeth because it seemed like there was a lot that she was holding back throughout the two acts that I felt like I could express for her. “It is as though she would speak but cannot” (166), Elizabeth holds her tongue far more than she should given her situation. This is just one of the many examples that show why I wished to express Elizabeth more than she ever would herself. “quietly, fearing to anger him by prodding” (166) Elizabeth stops herself from angering John by pushing any further. Elizabeth is the kind of person who is so warm-hearted that they can hurt themselves by being as they are. She should’ve pushed John to go to Salem and diverge his information immediately for it would help her in the long run. “hurt and very coldly… she starts to walk out” (167) Again instead of jumping into an argument, Elizabeth avoids any confrontation with John. This irks me because she should be expressing her feelings instead of keeping them to herself, something that doesn’t help anyone.…

    John and Elizabeth Proctor: Relationship

    Next, on the opposite side, is John’s relationship with Elizabeth that is filled with a passion for arguing judgment, trust, self-judgment and regret. The passion for arguing judgment arose because while reading through the text I noticed that the one thing John brought up quite a few times were telling Elizabeth not to judge him but to instead judge herself. I think that John said this not because he believed that she was judging him but because he would rather have her judging him than himself doing the judgment because he thought or hoped she wouldn’t be as…

    Morality and the crucible

    Elizabeth is the wife of John Proctor; reserved, honest, slow to complain, and dutiful. She and her husband share a similarly strict adherence to justice and moral principles. She has great confidence in her own morality and in the ability of a person to maintain a sense of righteousness even when this principle conflicts with strict Christian doctrine. She is well known throughout the village for being a very Christian woman, knowing all her commandments.…

    Elizabeth Gilbert's Sayings

    One of my Elizabeth Gilbert’s favorite sayings: “Your emotions are the slaves to your thoughts, and you are the slave to your emotions.” You become what you believe you are and this is proved by science and many experiences of international influencers around the world. Affecting other’s emotions is not an easy task. However, when it happens and you really put your fingerprint on someone’s emotions, this would create a great inspirational story that deserves to be heard.…

    Character Analysis of Elizabeth Bennet in Pride and Prejudice

    The main thing that draws me in about Elizabeth is her relationship with Mr. Darcy. Her first thoughts about Darcy are that he’s conceded and he cares too much about “class” or “rank” in society more than love or feelings when it comes to a relationship. While sitting down in between dances at the ball she overhears Darcy talking to Mr. Bingley about the girls at the ball and why he (Darcy) isn’t dancing with one of them. Darcy responds “I certainly shall not. You know how I detest it, unless I am particularly acquainted with my partner. At such an assembly as this, it would be insupportable. Your sisters are engaged, and there is not another woman in the room whom it would not be a punishment to me to stand up with.” (pg 12-13). Matters only get worse when Bingley asks if he’d like to have Jane introduce him to Elizabeth for a dance and when Darcy looks at Elizabeth he says “She is tolerable; but not handsome enough to tempt me; and I am in no humor at present to give consequence to young ladies who are slighted by other men.” (pg. 13). Elizabeth is so upset by Darcy’s words that for the better part of the first half of the novel she does everything in her power to insight angry in Darcy so that he will leave her alone.…
