Lord Of The Flies Quotes From The Hobbit
From Farah Ahmedi wanting to escape Afghanistan, to Bilbo showing he can help a lot, to Walt keeping a promise to Loren, it shows they all contain courage to do what is worth it. They want freedom and service for rights. Walt is saving Loren's gold, Bilbo showing he's 100% Took, and Farah escaping the war-torn Afghanistan. Thought of what is best for them IS what makes us want to undertake a mission.

Other Side of the Sky

Farah was 'in pursuit' of escaping the war-torn city of Afghanistan. When they found out they were taking a mountain pass, Farah took it because it was either 1. Stay and die in desert: or 2. Die trying to be free from Afghanistan. Of course, she chose the better option. And, she realized pushing against the gate will kill

He thinks he's 100% Baggins, so he hears that the dwarves don't want a scared little hobbit, so Bilbo knows it will help them at least wanting to get what is rightfully theirs, so he says to himself "I am not 1%, not 25%, not 75%, but 100% Took". And he has lots books, reading lots of stories about legends. He also serves all his food to barbaric dwarves so they can leave soon. He just wants to be alone again, so that is what fuels him to complete the mission.

King of Mazy May

Walt has promised to watch over his dad's claim and Walt promises to care for Loren's claim after he falls through the ice. When jumpers want to steal 10 pounds of gold from Loren's area, he knows it belongs to Loren, so he steals the gold and a sled to get the gold to Loren. After the lead dog gets shot, he thinks he might have lost, but he remembers poor Loren and quickly gets the other dogs lined up and hurries through the night and gets to Loren and the bandits get caught. He kept Loren in his head the whole time to help them.

These all show my thesis. Walt kept the good it would be for Loren in his head. Farah wanted to die trying to be free or be free. Bilbo wanted to be alone. They all had their thoughts of good in their head. This is what drove them and us to undertake missions. They all care for one another or for themselves to survive or have what they

    First of all, the government doesn’t always protect the patriot and defend the patriot the same way the patriot does for the Government. This is evident in numerous moments in American history and it is also shown all throughout the novel,\ “Lord of the Flies”. Simon was a very devoted and efficient member of the island community. He often listens and follows what Ralph and Piggy say. Although, this sense of loyalty and trust that Simon had toward Ralph ultimately lead to his demise. One of the major issues that the community of children had in the island was the constant fear of the beastie, an imaginary monster that lives in the jungle, that cause the “Littluns” to have nightmares. Simon finds out there isn’t a beast, instead it was a dead skydiver. He runs back to inform everyone that there is no beast but his community turns on him and kills him (quote). When the oldest of the community realize what they have done, they covered up his death by dragging his body into the sea and convince the littluns that he was the beast by saying "I expect the beast disguised himself”.

    In the beginning of the novel, Gandalf and the dwarves sweep Bilbo away from his town on an exciting adventure to claim the treasures once stolen from the dwarves by a very dangerous dragon. Along the way, Bilbo is clearly showing signs of annoyance towards the quest… “Bother burgling and everything to do with it! I just wish I were back home in my little hobbit-hole…” This quote infers that Bilbo is displeased and unimpressed about being “forced” to travel with the dwarves on their quest. This quote also shows that Bilbo is showing signs of being a coward. He is saying that he is tired [and perhaps cold because of the weather conditions], doesn’t get enough to eat – unlike back at home – and is altogether sick of this quest.…

    Gandalf, Elrond, and Bard are savior figures because they are caring, courageous, and wise. Gandalf is a savior figure because he saves Bilbo and the dwarves from the goblins. Gandalf helps Bilbo and the dwarves in a very helpless situation, and without Gandalf, they never would have made it to the Misty Mountains. Gandalf shows his compassion and kindness, along with his skill, to help the dwarves and Bilbo through many different situations throughout the story. In fact, Gandalf appears in just the right time when hope is almost lost. Elrond is a savior figure because he helps the dwarves and Bilbo when they are low on food and supplies. Elrond sees that the dwarves and Bilbo are tired and weary from their journey and are low in spirit, so he gave them food, shelter, and supplies for their long trip ahead. Elrond did not have to give them supplies, he could have let them go straight through Ravendale, but he did not. He stopped and cared for them, and really boosted their self-confidence and saved them from starvation. Bard is a savior figure because he was courageous in fighting the dragon, while protecting others, and ended up doing greatness. Bard could have fled like everyone else in the town when the dragon came, but he stayed strong. He knew it was important to stay, defend the village, and fight the good fight. By making that choice, he ended up doing greatness by killing the dragon. He was courageous and strong and he saved everyone in the town. Gandalf, Elrond, and Bard all have an important role in showing the…
