This passage has a significant impact on my thinking about rule breaking and that you can break the rules sometimes.

The quote "You may lie" kind of confuses and shocks Jonas at first. He was raised in a "perfect" community and never told to lie, so when these instructions came upon him, he didn't know what to think. He decided he would not take advantage of this rule but use it only when necessary.
After a little bit of thinking, Jonas wonders if everyone, including his parents, had been given the same directions when they got their jobs. That created a paradox: he had permission to ask if they lied, but he may never know if that is actually the truth. He also goes through a small crisis of conscience where he thinks The Giver has lied to him too.
I could not think of a good connection to the real world because of how different our world is than this community. Everyone has the permission to lie, however rude, so it does not nearly shock me as much as it affected Jonas.

The quote "You may lie" shocked Jonas, as he was trained and taught his whole life to never lie. The thought of breaking a rule to him was a major offense, so he was scared and nervous to lie.

He also started thinking a little more, and wondered if these words were in his parents instructions for their careers. He started wondering if maybe since he had them in his instructions, his trainer the Giver had them too. Then maybe he thought that the giver could have lied to him to. This was very stressful. He decided to not lie as it made him feel uneasy, at least until he needed to.

The author is trying to make us see that the community had instructed people to never lie, as this causes many problems we even see today in the real world. This sentence had a big impact on the story because it made readers realize how strict the community was.

This quote would rarely be used in the real world. think that because you would never tell someone "You may lie". You might tell them "Lie", perhaps to get them out of trouble or something like that, but unless it's a white lie, no one would say that.

When Jonas opened his folder to find a single sheet of paper, he was uneasy about seeing the rule “You may lie.” In other words, Jonas can lie to anyone about anything and at any time. The mood seems to be more dark, he realised, maybe his parents lied to him a lot. This is foreshadowing, maybe the Giver could be lying about how important the job is. The author is trying to say is that Jonas was probably have been lied to so many times. This quote is important because it shows how every person with an assignment are lying to each other. This could be drawn to the real world that interrogation could be a lot more obvious because people would easily know that someone is lying. They have the right to lie. This story changes of my thoughts, maybe seeing a release could be really disturbing.

The quote “you may lie” startled Jonas when he read his rules book. The quote makes me wonder if people really lie a lot in the giver. Jonas has this same feeling when he reads it. He realizes that people he talks to could be lying to him. He wonders if his parents lie to him too. He realizes his friends most likely got that rule too-his parents too. He also realizes that the world we live in isn't always a kind place where everyone is always happy and joyful.

This quote means that in a way he is free. He has more freedom and he can break the rules or be rude now. The mood is scary and intense because he wonders if everybody is lying to him especially his parents. The conflict could start with fights because now in the morning Jonas doesn't have to tell his parents about his dreams anymore if he doesn’t want to. I think he is a good character because he says he will wait to start on that one but just want to think about it. But he gets worse because he does start lying. So even though he now can lie, it doesn’t mean it’s a good idea. This is a big event in Jonas’s eyes. He gets handed the rule book that no one else does and it permits him to lie to his community. Jonas replies with he’s not ready, but will be. He needs time to take it inn on the events that just occurred.
In other words, he can break the rules without getting in trouble. No one else has that privilege without getting released. This quote is important because it comes with great responsibility which some people would overuse the power of the rulebook where this quote is found. Real world applications could be when you get older you get more privileges. That is what Jonas got. This impacts my thinking on the use of power and to take responsibility seriously. Not everybody gets power like that.
