I know this has been painful to you. But in a way it could be argued that none of you are as at fault as I am for leading you to this. I meant The Wave to be a great lesson for you and perhaps I succeeded too well. I certainly became more of a leader than I intended to be. And I hope you will believe me when I say that it has been a painful lesson for me too." I 
This quote expresses the theme perfectly as Mr. Ross apologizes for leading the students on to a club that got out of control. ]]> 2017-06-16 13:59:38 UTC https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176669269 codychartrand2 https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176671595 2017-06-16 14:20:03 UTC https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176671595 codychartrand2 https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176672479 Robert said nervously "the whole idea of the wave is that the people in it have to support it. If we're really a community, we all have to agree."
I felt like this quote really supports my theme by saying they all have to agree. No ones allowed to disagree.]]> 2017-06-16 14:28:15 UTC https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176672479 codychartrand2 https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176673041 "This is our salute and our salute only," he told them "whenever you see another Wave member, you will salute. Robert, salute ang give our mottos." 
In this quote we can see that the students are being forced to preform this chant without question or hesitation. They can't think for themselves.]]> 2017-06-16 14:34:16 UTC https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176673041 codychartrand2 https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176673694 2017-06-16 14:41:13 UTC https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176673694 codychartrand2 https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176673982 "It started several days ago in my senior history class.

  Mr. Ross is trying to show his students what life was like in Nazi Germany. Being forced to do what your told or be punished. To follow without choice. Just like his students are doing.]]> 2017-06-16 14:43:51 UTC https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176673982 codychartrand2 https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176674273 Damn it, Ben! I don't care about your experiment. I've got teachers complaining, I've got parents calling me every five minutes wanting to knowwhat the hells going on here, what the hell we are doing with their kids. You think I can tell them it's an experiment? My God, man, you know that boy who was roughed up last week? His rabbi was here yesterday. The man spent two years in Auschwitz. Do you think he gives a damn about your experiment?"
Principal Owens is showing his growing concern about Mr. Ross's experiment. The students are following him blindly and it's getting out of control.]]> 2017-06-16 14:46:50 UTC https://padlet.com/codychartrand2/d3v9ue462mj0/wish/176674273
