Quotes about Guilt

·     These quotes may be useful for when considering the different emotional states of Claudio. Considering our current plot, we have agreed that Claudio will be experiencing guilt- as he is the cause of Hero's suicide. He was the motivation and was also present when it took place, yet there was nothing he could have done to stop her. Particularly the emotive language within these quotes, such as 'crush', 'suffer', and 'pain' could be used when trying to relate or portray the character of Claudio- using these as a guide to how he's feeling or the effect Hero's presence has upon him. 

          1)  Guilt isn't always a rational thing, Guilt is a weight that will crush you whether you deserve it or not.
·       2) Guilt is rooted in actions of the past, perpetuated in the lack of action in present, and delivered in the future as pain and suffering
·       3)  A guilty conscience needs no accuser
·       4)   It has always seemed that a fear of judgement is the mark of guilt and the burden of insecurity
·       5) Saying sorry doesn't mean there isn't guilt and forgiving doesn't mean the pain is gone
·       6)  There is a higher court than courts of justice and that is the court of conscience – it supersedes all other courts
·       7)  Guilt- the gift that keeps on giving

·       8) Fear is the tax that conscience pays to guilt
