At that moment, Amir is fighting against Assef, but he’s also sacrificing his life to save Sohrab as like Hassan sacrificed himself for Amir 26 years ago.

From this quote, I learn that without being able to forgive yourself for your mistakes, you can’t have a fulfilled life. And, forgiveness only comes when you have truly tried to atone for your…

He constantly thinks of survival, having fire, and building shelter because he is concerned about everyone's safety, “Been working for days now. And look!” (50). He’s been working on the shelters with the other boys, but then soon tire and leave him with Simon to finish the shelter.

    Some people argue though that one does not need to have anything do do with ones creator like in this quote,"Man need no longer be in awe of his creator; he no longer even feel grateful for being created. He can turn his back on God with a good conscience and set about charting his own course, seeking out ways to remake an imperfectly created world, even to change his own nature for the better"(Hogsette). This quote talks about how in life now we don't need a God figure in one's life today. The monster though would disagree with this. The monster was left alone for his entire life and kept looking for something to make him happy and if his creator would have been in his life he would have known a lot more and would have made his life a lot…
