For the Council of Vocations knows in its great wisdom where you are needed by your brother men, better than you can know it in your unworthy little minds"(p.22).]]> 2017-12-18 16:47:34 UTC https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217016628 24953 https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217017913 This quote, in my opinion, is important to the novel because it shows how even when the characters were young, they were forced to be a whole, not an individual. They were told they were worthless, and unworthy. The only right decision was made by the various councils, not them.]]> 2017-12-18 16:50:53 UTC https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217017913 24953 https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217020589 "This discovery haunted us"(p.53)]]> 2017-12-18 16:57:30 UTC https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217020589 24953 https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217021146 This quote made me think about how important it is to discover new things, but how wrong their society saw it as. They had been forced to believe that the Council of Scholars were the only ones who could create things, and how working together is the only way, and yet it still took them an eternity to create the candle. Equality discovered electricity, a wonderful thing, and it haunted him. How sad that is to be saddened by your own talent.]]> 2017-12-18 16:59:09 UTC https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217021146 24953 https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217022467 "Since the Council does not know of this hole, there can be no law permitting to enter. And everything which is not permitted by law is forbidden"(p.31)]]> 2017-12-18 17:02:29 UTC https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217022467 24953 https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217023985 This connects with my life because as a teenager, I still live with my parents. The way things work, are there are things you can do and can't do. In this quote, their laws are for the things you MUST do. International tells equality that there isn't a law saying that they may enter. Like my parents, if they don't tell me I can do something, I can't. In Anthem it is taken to another level, because it is a society, and they are laws, so you are forced to do those things.]]> 2017-12-18 17:06:22 UTC https://padlet.com/24953/5pr5ut78t9tv/wish/217023985
