“I cannot mount the gibbet like a saint. It is a fraud. I am not that man.” This quote was said by John Proctor in The Crucible, when he was thinking about confessing to “Witchcraft”. John Proctor was a victim of the Salem Witchcraft Trials. He is a very hard working farmer who loved his family with all his heart. He had an affair with Abigail Williams. He was hung and killed for being a “Witch”. John Proctor and I have similar personality traits in that we are both short tempered, family oriented and major sinners.
John Proctor and I portray our short-tempers in different ways. John Proctor shows his anger when he went too the courthouse. He got so angry at the court that he called Abigail a whore. He called her that because he had an affair with Abigail Williams. I displayed my short temper when I dragged my neighbor down a hill. On a summer night, my neighbors and their dad were over at our house. They were kicking my head while I was lying on the grass. I grabbed one of their legs and I pulled them toward me on a hill. Another example of my short-temper would be when I beat up my brother. On a school day a couple of days before our birthday, My brother was making fun of me in physical science. After we got home, I threw some punches at him and he started to tear up. He started to punch back while I was apologizing to him.
