Moreover, the actions Curley has done are corrupt, but they are not solely because he is an abominable person. An infrequent amount of readers will look at Curley’s actions and have sympathy for him, but Curley has reasons for his mistakes. Nevertheless, Curley is a disastrous man due to the way he grew up being an only child, he is astoundingly short, his father is a wealthy ranch owner, and he grew up in a racist and sexist community.

He often said this to his players and to his staff as well. It held a place of importance in his life, yet it was not the most important thing.

It stirs up the question as to why this is: Why don’t they simply ignore them? (Education, 1). There is an obvious difference in the way that the young boys relate to each other in their group and the way that Ace and the older boys relate to each other. The older boys are constantly rude to each other and don’t really act like friends at all.
People act upon what they think. Within “12 Angry Men”, all of the jurors have an opinion but some voice their more than others.

One character that showed a significant role of guilt, was a well-respected gentleman named Baba. Baba had to live with the guilt of not only betraying his closest friend, lying to his legitimate son, hiding the truth from son, and committing what he believed what he believed was the only sin.

Peter often enjoyed the pain and agony of Valentine and Ender when he would threaten death upon the both of them. He influenced many people not only to see things his way, but also tricked them into scheming with him, such as Valentine with the political writings. Multiple times we see Ender saying things like, “I am just like Peter. Take my monitor away, and I am just like Peter”(Card). It quickly becomes clear that Ender wants nothing to do with Peter and wishes to be nothing like him.
He comes from a fairly unexceptional, if somewhat privileged, background. His father always reminded him “Whenever you feel like criticising anyone...just remember that all the people in this world haven’t had the advantages that you’ve had.” (pg 1) He reserves judgement to begin with and becomes associated with all sorts of people, but ultimately he sees their true

I can see that Jonas has been asking more and more questions. I’m sure sooner or later he will answer them one way or another. This leads me to believe that the Elders have been more untruthful than truthful. After Jonas has been learning his whole life that lying is bad then being told he can lie all he wants is a big change for him. Maybe everything he knows is a lie.
Early in the book, the boy has little experience with the harsh outside world, he is trusting in everyone but his father knows best, and does what he can to protect him. The father examines everyone right as he sees them, and the boy learns to do the same. “Like an animal inside a skull looking out the eyeholes” (McCarthy 63).
