“The road to Hell is paved with good intentions.” My understanding of this statement is that good intentions often result in disaster. ... Or when Goody Proctor lies in court to make her husband look like a good man, she only condemns him further. ... Here his intentions are good, as he wants to save his village from witches and witchcraft. ... However, as soon as word of witches is spread around the village people start to accuse other people in order to save themselves, “I saw Sarah Good with the Devil! ...
Proctor’s intentions are good when he tells the truth about Abigail Williams in court. ... Elizabeth Proctor’s intentions are good when she lies in court in attempt to save John Proctor. ... This is also a very dramatic point in the play maximized by Elizabeth’s idea of good leading to John’s hell. ...
In conclusion, I have found that the statement “The road to Hell is paved with good intentions” is true in many cases within the play The Crucible. I have found many examples to prove that it is true, Parris calls Hale to remove all witches from his village starts off as a good idea, but soon turns to disaster, and many innocent people dying.
