6. Please choose one passage from the novel that is significant to you. Why is this passage meaningful? Please type it into one of your entries and comment on what you think about the passage.

"Ralph wept for the end of innocence, the darkness of man's heart, and the fall through the air of the true, wise friend called Piggy."

When I read this, I felt like I could feel Ralph's weariness from all of this. It was just too much and it seemed like there was no end to this. He had been fighting against Jack and his group all this time, but Ralph was becoming tired too. It was like the good fighting off against the evil side. However, Piggy was the only one next to him, and now, he was gone too. It left Ralph crushed, hopeless, and weak. He didn't feel like he could go on any longer. The main reason I chose this passage was becasue this is how we all feel once in a while. We all try to gain something but the road is so hard and we break down. This passage also showed that Ralph was trying so hard but he wasn;t perfect, as humans aren't. It talks alot about the human side- "the darkness of a man's heart" and how imperfect we are.
