There is no competition within castes because each member receives the same food, housing and soma rationing as everyone else of that caste, so there is no jealousy within the society. There is also no desire to change one’s caste, largely because a person’s sleep-learning teaches that his or her caste is superior to the other four. Since there is no jealousy and competition, Brave New World remains stable and everybody is satisfied with their lives and hence, they are living happily and peacefully. Citizens, however, are living without freedom. Freedom in the society has been sacrificed for what Mustapha Mond calls happiness.
I have never been persecuted for my religion, the color of my skin or my political preferences. My government, while not perfect, is not so mismanaged or so economically devastated that I couldn’t get help for myself or my family.

There was no system of representation calling for long campaigns and expensive elections. Whatever this Assembly decided by vote was the law of the land.. The Athenian democracy worked fairly well. The main reason for its success was the quality of the citizens.

This is in stark contrast to the Knight, who constantly puts his life on the line expecting nothing in return; he does simply because it is the right thing to do. How a person conducts themselves on a daily basis can tell you a lot about their character and motivations. If one were to examine the Knight then they would see he is a humble, brave, and kind man. “And though so much distinguished, he was wise / And in his bearing modest as a maid. / He never yet a boorish thing had said / In all his life to any, come what might; / He was a true, a perfect gentle-knight.”(70-74).
