Lotf chapter 2 fire on the mountain quotes

• "we will have to have hands up like in school"

  Enforcing rules represents civilized manner and shows that boys are still a little civilised, attempting to include rules that they’ve learned in their short time in school/society
• “We’ll have rules!” he cried excitedly. “Lots of rules! Then when anyone breaks ‘em-”

  It seems as though the boys, specifically Jack, are only excited about having rules because they can punish whoever breaks them. This will be important later on in the novel as savagery becomes more and more apparent.

  It is also ironic for Jack to give the idea of a punishment to a rule breaker considering that he is the first boy to deliberately break a rule that Ralph created.
• "blue flowers-"

  Interruption represents the slow decline of order and foreshadows the outcome of future meetings in the novel
• “Feeling the beginning of awe at the power set free below them”.
