Best Answer

Consideration means the act of "considering," in this context considering others--their feelings, needs, situation and so on. So doing things that help the person you are "considering" or "being considerate of." Candor is a tendency to speak openly or bluntly, without filtering your thoughts. So the two ideas could be opposed in this way: you can speak with candor, just saying what you think, or you can be considerate, which might mean sometimes holding back and not saying what you think, in consideration of a another's feelings. The two words are used together in John Henry Newman's passage in The Idea of a University on what constitutes a gentleman.

How is Antigone responsible for her own actions?

Antigone is responsible for her own actions, which result from her own decisions. She is the decider of action versus inaction, disobedience versus obedience, passion versus reasoned discussion.

She accepts both the responsibility for burying her brother Polyneices, and the likelihood of her execution.
