    Tsotsi Questioning Sympathy
    "What is sympathy?...he would have answered: like light, meaning that it revealed... He was seeing him for the first time, in a way that he hadn't seen him before, or with a second sort of sight, or maybe just more clearly. The subtleleties did not matter. What was the light of his sympathy the cripple was revealed" (Fugard 106-107). This is the conflict of Man Vs. Self. This is because he is questioning sympathy and thinking to himself if the feeling he has is what Boston was talking about. PM
