Paragraph Analysis: Compare And Contrast Two Different Elies

I chose this specific quote because I could relate to it in some ways such as feeling numbness, and zoning out or stepping out of reality to think about what is truly happening. This quote also stuck out to be the first time I read it and I was just very intrigued by it. My picture accurately depicts the quote because I drew two different Elies; the pair of legs that is still represents Elie stepping out of reality whereas the pair of legs that is running shows the Elie that is still in reality and running in order to survive and arrive at the next destination without dying. This quote is significant because it depicts that even when these men are running to survive, their minds are elsewhere and that their only goal is to survive until they
are eventually liberated. The theme of the power of fear is apparent in this quote because no matter where these men are, their only goal is to survive until the next day and they do this in constant fear of their lives.
