Compare And Contrast Proctor And The Crucible

Die Happy Or Live Terrible
As far as i'm concerned it is better to die with integrity than to live to harm others. To die with integrity you would have to understand it first. Integrity is when you understand the consequences of your leadership among others. Also when you have to be honest with the way you live. Finally it is when you have powerful morals. For instance in The Crucible Proctor had to choose if he wanted to die for the rights of the community or if he wanted to live for the wrongs of the community.
If you are a leader you have to understand that; when you do something it has a massive amount of consequences. When you are a leader people look up to you. This means whatever you do it will affect the people around you and the people who look up to you. It

could possibly make them do the same thing you do. For occurrence if the president of the United States decides to walk around and disrespect everyone he sees or have bad manners. This would make everyone else in the United States do the same. Hes our leader he's supposed to do everything the right way so whatever we see him do we automatically do because we think it's the right thing to do. Imagine the world of full of cocky unmannered people. Thats terrible right? Our president has to think about the things he does because he doesn't want to turn the world and the people in it to something negative.
To have integrity you have to be honest about the way you live. For example if a preacher or a deacon lied about how much money a church made, and took the money for their own goods. Not only will the people of the church leave. That will make some people think it's okay to steal. If they knew a man of God stole they will say to their self you see he's stealing why can't i do it. It will also encourage people to lie about their sins. If you sin you're supposed to fix and correct your sins with God, but if the leader of the church don't do it why shouldn't the members?
You have to have strong morals or beliefs.

If you don't believe in yourself how can the people of the community believe in you? For instance in The Crucible. Proctor's wife was accused of being a witch and if he didn't convince the court she wasn't she was gonna be executed. In order for him to convince the court he had to confess to the one sin he never wanted to talk about. He admitted to committing adultery with Abigail. Witchcraft was a huge problem in Salem. The community thought the judges was taking it too far they had already killed over 700 citizens. Proctor's wife Rebecca cared way too much of her husband's image as a preacher she lied on the stand and said he didn't commit adultery. The court sentenced them both to be executed in 2 weeks if they did not confess.The judges tried to make them confess because if they confessed it would make the people of Salem believe that the 700 that already died really were witches. Proctor did not confess he felt strongly about his wife not consulting in witchcraft. After Procter is executed the courts are overthrown and they can not excuse anyone else of witchcraft. Proctor died with integrity everyone of the community praised him for his brave

remarks.
If someone was in the position where they would have to live to harm others or die with integrity, they should definitely die with integrity. Even though the harm you are doing to others may not have been life affecting. Maybe the harm you are doing doesn't affect many people. You should still choose to die with integrity because you care about how others view you. You should want to be the person that changed the world.
As shown above dying with integrity is the right thing to do over living to harm others. If you choose to live to hurt others over dying with integrity you will see the sententious affects you will have over a community. Living to hurt others is like saying that you don't care about anyone but yourself. Dying with integrity shows people that you have strong morals. If you are not being honest or being a good leader you could affect the community you live in, the business you represent, or even the world.
