    “The ego is not master in its own house.” -Sigmund Freud This quote by Sigmund Freud explains how the decisions of the ego are not made on its own. The ego has the super-ego and the id telling it what to do‚ and the ego has to balance out what they both want. The ego may make the final decision but the super-ego and id are the ones putting in their opinions. In the book “The Lord of the Flies” certain characters help to represent part of Sigmund Freud’s theory of the id‚ ego‚ and super-ego
