This quote “You may lie” is important because it is telling a big part into the next few chapters in his life.

The quote “you may lie.” is written on Jonas's assignment paper. When this is said, Jonas gets very confused about it because no one in the community ever lies,d but then he wonders if other people's assignments said this. The quote is telling Jonas that to do this job, he will have to lie because people cannot know what he does. The author is trying to make us see that if Jonas needs to lie to do this assignment do other people do to so can we trust them. This story had a significant impact on my thinking about whether everyone's assignment says they can lie, then can Jonas trust anyone, even his parents? We know that in real life, people lie a lot, but we were never told that we were allowed to lie or that we weren't allowed to lie, so we need to be careful who we trust.

Who may have said this might have been either the past receiver as we learn or it could be the ceremony announcer. This sentence is being said to Jonas, as he is reading the rules of his new assignment. What was happening in the story when it was being said, Jonas was in his “Sleepingroom” and was just opening his folder to see the rules for his new assignment as a twelve and becoming a new role. What the quote could mean is that he may be able to deceive people around him if it comes to that as an option. What it could reveal is that the system can lie to the people, as Jonas’s new assignment seems like it’s as important as the announcers in his town.

The author is trying to make us see that the system or the people of the “honor” that Jonas is now with in his assignment, is able to say deceitful messages or sentences to the people if it ever comes up in Jonas’s or anyone else’s ((even though there is no one else as we have seen)) assignment. It can also shape the tone of how the people will respond to the deceitful messages and how they cooperate even if it may be a lie.

This quote made an impact on my thinking about how the people could be told lies and they would just follow even if it may be false as the people with “honor” are more respected and trustworthy. A real world connection I can make with this quote is with either government power and authority or just high management in general. You may not be aware of the false messages you may be told through the government as you know that you should respect them no matter what or else you could be dealt with punishment.

The Receiver Of Memory instruction folder. This Quote is said to Jonas, and the purpose of this quote is to tell Jonas that he is allowed to lie to people now.

When this quote is said, Jonas is in his sleepingroom and is looking over his folder of rules for his job, but he noticed earlier that some of the Twelves had been given thick folders. But his folder of rules was thin and had barely had anything in it.

This quote means that Jonas is allowed to lie now, and he wasn't allowed to lie and had to tell the truth before he got the folder of rules for his job. This quote reveals that not everyone in the community is allowed to lie unless told they can. The author is trying to make us see that Jonas, before, was not able to lie and NEEDED to tell the truth, but he is now allowed to lie because of his job. The tone/mood of this quote is very straightforward and telling us that Jonas may lie if he wants to and doesn't need to lie or not/need to tell the truth.

This story/passage had a significant impact on my thinking about how things that are normal in the real world are strange/funny to do or be able to do. Like not being able to see color because of scientist changed their eyes to be colorblind, picking our own jobs, picking our spouses, and really anything that we get to choose for ourselves. Also, this quote is important because it is weird and not something normal that would be a rule. This quote is saying that Jonas can lie and that if he wants to, he has to tell the truth before getting the folder of rules.

The quote “You may lie” is said by the Chief Elder to Jonas when she gives him his instructions as the new Receiver of Memory. It happens right after the Ceremony of Twelve, when Jonas is learning the special rules that apply only to him, and he is reading the folder that lists what he can and cannot do. The purpose of the quote is to show Jonas that, unlike everyone else in the community, he now has the unusual ability to lie, which is normally forbidden. This moment is shocking because the community values honesty above all, so being allowed to lie shows that Jonas’s new role is different and comes with serious responsibilities. It reveals that the society controls its citizens by limiting knowledge and that Jonas’s life will now be separate from others, highlighting the conflict between individual knowledge and societal rules. The quote is significant because it emphasizes how powerful and isolated Jonas’s position is, and it sets a serious and thought-provoking tone that makes readers question what is right or wrong in controlling information. The author uses the literary device of contrast here, showing the difference between Jonas and the rest of the citizens, to help us see the tension between freedom and control. This story had a significant impact on my thinking about honesty and trust, and it connects to the real world because it makes me consider how people in positions of power sometimes hide the truth or allow deception, which can affect fairness and freedom in society.

It is said to Jonas on the paper that he had gotten after being selected to become the next Receiver of Memory. It tells that Jonas that he can lie and there are no named consequences.

In the story, Jonas was getting ready for bed when he finally sat down and read over the paper.

It means that Jonas could lie. He had never lied on purpose, but the thought that anyone in his community could be lying, it gave him a start.

The author is trying to make us see that there could be some very shady stuff going on that people in the community could not know about. Or maybe they do know about it but are forbidden to tell, therefore giving the rule, you may lie.

This quote is important because it shows that there is more to the story than what meets the eye. People here could be lying all day everyday, 24/7, and nobody would know the difference. It makes you think how much of everything you hear in real life is a lie or not.

This quote is important because it shows Jonas a little more about the community's actual intentions. This passage had a significant impact on my thinking about if all the assignments had that rule on it and if the adults were lying to Jonas about important things.

The quote is important for us because it shows how strange that is to be able to lie.This story has me thinking about the world now where people don't like it when you lie and you often are punished for those lies like in this book.

The person who said this is Jonas's assignment folder. It was said to Jonas, and the reason why is that Jonas got the receiver of memories job, which is the highest hour job.
