Quote: "Under the spreading chestnut tree, I sold you and you sold me..."
Significance: I finally get what that means! I even forgot it was part of the text for a bit, but it was always in the back of my mind. It speaks of how people can quicly be turned to sell out another for their own gain, while at the same time they person they sold out does the same to them. And it did indeed happen in that manner.
Definitions:
torpid-having lost motion or the power of exertion or feeling.
capitulated- to surrender, often after negotiation of terms.
About Me
- Nathaniel
- “Every morning in Africa, a Gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be killed. Every morning a Lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest Gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether you are a Lion or a Gazelle... when the sun comes up, you'd better be running.”
