She wants to be a good citizen, and as such when Fanny tells her she has been spending too much time with Henry, she tells her she's right and then goes to hang out with Bernard. She sees herself as a proper "English girl" who flirts and is promiscuous and pretty, she thinks that she fits into the world state, and is comfortable in her role because she feels that she fits in. Thus this image represents her because she feels just like everyone else and is content in that. 

Quotes: 
"'yes, every one belongs to every one else'" (43) 

"and round her waist she wore a silver mounted green morocco surrogate cartridge belt, bulging (for Lenina was not a free martin) with the regulation supply of contraceptives" (50)

He has to fight to get other lower castes to obey his orders, and he thinks he has a defect that makes him appear different from the other alphas. He also really likes Lenina which is against everything the world state stands for, he is different from the others and this image represents that. 

Quotes: 
"how bitterly he envied men like Henry Foster and Benito Hoover! Men who never had to shout at an Epsilon to get an order obeyed; men who took their position for granted; men who moved through the caste system as a fish through water- so utterly at home" (65) 

"too little bone and brawn had isolated Bernard from his fellow men" (67) ]]> 2023-02-03 14:17:20 UTC https://padlet.com/gracie_albanese/ag1kw9mcvfi06c1y/wish/2467627125 gracie_albanese https://padlet.com/gracie_albanese/ag1kw9mcvfi06c1y/wish/2467627417 This image represents Helmholtz because he is confident and comfortable in his caste because he feels that it very much reflects him. He is attractive, smart, and respected, everything that his caste is. Though Bernard feels like he doesn't fit in due to feeling weaker, Helmholtz feels that he is too strong for the World State, he can feel that he is smarter and better than some of his peers. This is very different from both Lenina and Bernard, while he is confident and secure in his role he can still feel that stifling of what he could be. 

Quotes:  
"'did you ever feel'...'as though you had something inside you that was only waiting for you to give it a chance to come out?'" (69)

"'Not quite. I'm thinking of a queer feeling I sometimes get, a feeling that I've got something important to say and the power to say it.'" (69)]]> 2023-02-03 14:17:32 UTC https://padlet.com/gracie_albanese/ag1kw9mcvfi06c1y/wish/2467627417
