Greed will turn a non-violent person, into someone who becomes violent in order to get what they want.

Look like all they want to do is knock you down.” Enoch tells Haze about his abusive father and this mean lady he lived with before he came there. It really makes me wonder if Enoch ever had anybody to talk to and that is why he is so strong on Haze; because Haze is listening. Enoch tells Haze that he has “wise blood”. “When he realized that today was the day he decided not to get up. He didn’t want to justify his daddy’s blood, he didn’t want to be always having to do something that something else wanted him to do, that he didn’t know what it was and that was always dangerous”(135).
These books established the atmosphere and seductiveness of”utopia" and fear of the consequences of acting in the non-prescribed way through character development. A single character is alienated because of his inability to conform. The characters struggle to hide this fact from the state's relentless supervision. This struggle leads them to eventual conflict with some hand of the state, which serves as the author's voice presenting the reader with the 'absurdity' of the principles on which the society is based. The similar fear of the state's abuse of power and technology at the expense of human individuality present within these novels speaks to the relevance of these novels within their historical context and their usefulness for awakening people to the horrendous consequences of their ignorance.
Injustice is basically when somebody has been wronged and when adding collector is when somebody has been wronged many times over their life.

He cannot see that he did anything wrong when he fired Eva smith- he was just looking after his business interests.
The root of Creon’s immoral behavior, towards Antigone, is not an inability to distinguish between what is wrong and what is right, but rather a fear of what would happen if he were to choose the morally right way to function. In the play, Creon says that he is very afraid to stray from the established laws in anyway, until the very day he dies (Sophocles 1495). Creon is a power-hungry leader. He is developing into a tyrant. Creon is compared to “a politician without the capacity to be a statesman, because he cannot resist the temptations of power” (Winnington-Ingram).
King Creon does not even have a chance to truly make Antigone understand his point before she takes matters in to her own hands and take her own life. If only Creon would have found a way to make Antigone see that his position on her brother was to prevent future bloodshed and conflicts, he might have saved the flood of suicide to come. Antigone just could not bear to understand or cooperate with such repulsive actions that she felt were done to her that she could not see the bigger pitcher which would keep the peace and her family
Acquiescence, violence, and nonviolence are the ways to handle the oppressors. One way that Dr. King opposes in his essay, is acquiescence. The oppressed people are downhearted to accept and endure their lives as inferiors.
