“Your law is not my law. Your law is not the law of the gods; It's just a man's occasional whim. And I do not believe that your proclamation has such force that it can replace the unwritten laws of customs and the infallible statutes of the gods. Because these laws are not laws of today, they are not laws of yesterday, they are laws of all times: no one knows when these laws appeared. No, I would not risk the punishment of the gods to satisfy the pride of a poor king.” Antigone, by Sophocles
