    Percy. In my opinion‚ this quote means that no matter what‚ goodness will be overshadowed and/or destroyed by a greater evil‚ for a lack of better words. I agree with this quote‚ because there are many real life situations that can prove it‚ along with the situations portrayed in most literary works.

    The quote that I’ve decided to use from the story is "After almost two years in Whittier‚ my father assignment was completed and we had to return home.

Although‚ she did have fun in the last month of their stay because of all the slumber parties that were thrown
