Both want to marry someone named Earnest.
In the novel the characters trust Nick and confide in him quite a bit. He thinks of himself as an open minded non-judgmental, non-partial person. I think that it is almost impossible to live your life and not judge others and also not be partial and judge different individuals with different standards. Nick wants the readers to believe that the way he was raised gives him the right to pass judgment on an immoral world. He says, that as a consequence of the way he was raised he is "inclined to reserve all judgments" about other people (page 5).

To delve deeper into this disillusion, one must first understand who Rip is and how his community views his character. Within the text, Washington Irving unravels Rip to be an amiable fool, reinforced by his statement that Rip is “… one of those happy mortals, of foolish well-oiled dispositions, who take the world easy, eat bread or brown, which ever can be got with least thought or trouble and would rather starve on a penny than work for a pound.” (532) and that “if left to himself would whistle his life away” (532) This description outlines Rip as a man for little concern for the future or even the pressing matters that surround him. Although these traits are usually frowned upon my members of any society, it is important to understand what conclusions others draw from his disposition. Despite the range of satire made of Rip, in relation to his standing as a “henpecked husband”, the story also shares with the reader aspects of Rips good nature. Irving states “He would never even refuse to assist a neighbor in the roughtest toil,
Exploring and understanding different characters decisions and beliefs truly helps reveal human morality. Aside from Scout, her father Atticus helps explore the good and bad of the Maycomb community. Atticus understands that, rather than being good or evil, everyone has good and bad qualities. The important thing is to appreciate the good qualities and understand the bad qualities by being comprehensive to others and trying to see life from their shoes. “You never really understood a person until you consider things from his point of view—until you climb into his skin and walk around it.” pg 30.
“And truly I was afraid, I was most afraid.” (857) Lawrence also uses the word “innocent” when writing of the black snakes in Sicily. “For in Sicily the black, black snakes are innocent, the gold are venomous” (856). The use of
Emerson and Thoreau agree that in the transition from childhood to adulthood, man restricts original thoughts and actions so that he may be accepted by others, which impedes his individual growth. In Emerson’s essay “Self Reliance,” he considers that “A boy is in the parlour what the pits is in his playhouse; independent, irresponsible ... He cumbers himself never about consequences, about interests: he gives an independent, genuine verdict.” Emerson emphasizes that a child does what he desires and freely speaks what’s on his mind without consideration of consequences. Emerson admires such genuine actions because they express uninhibited and uninfluenced original thought which is critical to a person’s development as a unique individual. In contrast, Emerson deems that “man is, as it were, clapped into jail by his consciousness; as soon as he has once acted with éclat, he is a committed person.” As man matures into adulthood, he begins to take into account others’ opinions, conforming to how he should think and act in society so that he may gain the approval of his peers, and through this, he loses his own inner voice and his uniqueness which defines him … metaphorically, he is "jailed.” Emerson believes that successful men are those,
Piggy is one of the first characters introduced in the novel, and he is described as "the fat boy", which encourages the reader to like him and sympathize towards him, even if nobody else does. Piggy proves to have a great deal of importance as his knowledge and common sense is profound compared to the other boys among him. For example, he is the first to recognize that their chances of rescue are very slim, he knows very well that the beast isn't real, and his ideas of survival surpass the other boy’s plans. Throughout the novel, Piggy remains wise, but this voice of wisdom is ignored. It is clear only in the book that Piggy is intellectually superior and physically inferior.
In William Golding’s Lord of the Flies, Simon epitomizes a christ figure by striving for humane treatment and the natural goodness on the island. Simon features distinct shyness and sensitivity that differs from all the other boys on the island. His humbleness displays throughout the book, “Simon’s effort fell about him in ruins; the laughter beat him cruelly and he shrank away defenseless to his seat.”(89) When his ideas are rejected he options not to fight, yet to forget about the disrespect and accept the status quo. He behaves kindly to the littluns by providing friendship and offers them fruit to eat. This nurses them out of the fear they possess by being trapped on the island without their parents and support.
An example of this would be, “ I usually Lone it anyway”. Which shows his feelings on how he doesn’t care. Also when the reader imagines Ponyboy you get a lower class hoodlum image but when you read on Ponyboy doesn’t fit the Hoodlum stereotype as you find he is very intelligent as he has a high IQ and makes good grades but doesn’t like to show it as his older brother Darry expects a high grades from him.
