In other words, since Jonas has the special job of being The Receiver of Memory, he is allowed to lie because of the circumstances of his assignment. The author is trying to make us see that Jonas will be conflicted with a lot of emotions and pain when he receives memories, memories that the community is not allowed to know about except for him. He is allowed to lie because no one except for him and the Giver is allowed to know his true thoughts. This quote moves the story forward by showing the reader and Jonas the rules of his assignment and it also makes us wonder, what exactly is Jonas's assignment about?

These announcers/speakers said this, and it was being said to Jonas for his rules of instruction of being the new Receiver.
In the story when the quote is being said, or in this example “read”, Jonas is sort of speechless, or startled.
The quote means, well it means what it says. “You may lie” “But with Great power comes Great responsibility.” It also reveals that he never wanted to lie, and really technically never has, so for him to even have that option was unsettling.
The quote means to me is that the ability to do that, the choice to do that you will need to do it wisely. “Because with Great power comes Great responsibility.”
When Jonas was reading his instructions, the event that happened was he had that power from the words from the paper that said “ You may lie.”

“In other words, you may speak the truth, when you want.”

“The author is trying to make us see that Jonas doesn't really want to do this, he has this option he never had in his whole life.”

“This quote moves the story forward by showing us how he uses his words and his choice to not speak the truth at certain parts of the story..”

Alison morley- The giver quote analysis Chapeter 9 "See you in the morning, Recreaton Director!"

2022-03-02 23:12:15 UTC

When Jonas first recived his assignment with his peers, he was skipped. By the end of the ceramony day, while he and his peers were exiting the auditorium, he said something to Asher. He said: "See you in the morning, Recreation Director!" He and Asher have been friends since they were very young. This quote states and shows that they are starting to seperate and they are distancing slowly. Jonas, with his job as the Reciver, and future Giver, has to keep his traing a complete secret and return home right after training. The author shows us that sometimes in life, people drift apart as life goes on.

When Jonas gets his assignment, his personal paper shows a list of instruction, that says “You may lie.” The purpose of this is that it gives Jonas power, because he doesn’t have to tell the truth anymore. Jonas reads this the night after the ceremony, when they are first allowed to view their folder.
