"The savage in man is never quite eradicated," this means that
the savage inside every man is always there, and ready to dhow
itself to everyone else at the right moment. This relates to the
book because the savages were always in all the boys, but being
stranded on the island was the right moment for them to come
out. This relates to my life because some people have the right
moment to become the real savages inside them. People like this
I think would be the murderers in the world, or the people that
were born savages and are savages their whole life.

Do you think Simon would have became a savage?

So do you think even the smartest kid after a while will forget
what is right and wrong and become a savage like Piggy and
Simon?

“We are all civilized people, which means that we are
all savages at heart but observing a few amenities of civilized
behavior.” Said by Tennessee Williams. This means people are
doing wrong everywhere but we’re so used to the evil we barely
notice it. In Lord of the Flies Jack is practically the first
one to turn to a savage and everyone followed besides a few but
even those at one point of the story had a little savage in
them. In WWII savagery was there because of Hitler against the
Jews. Today we see savagery practically everywhere, but not as
bad as WWII.

"we are all civilized people which means that we are all savages
at heart but observing a few amenities of civilized behavior.
All the boys in both groups were all savages even though they
didn't know they were. When Ralph and the others were murdering
Simon they all didn't know they were. like people in war they
don't know half the things they do because they don't want to
think they did it.

Do you think, if they weren't rescued when they were, that Ralph
would've turned into a savage as well?

Do you think it's the same thing with hunting animals?

The savage in man is never quite eradicted. Everyone human has
savage in them. The key is due they ever blow up and show it.
Savagery occurred throughout the book the Lord of The Flies.
Jack and his tribe left Ralph and became savages killing people
and everything that would show itself. There were savages, but
wouldn't listen to know. This theme is in the world, but you may
not to notice it. Like if a plane crashed on an island, those
people on the islands may become savages. When people kill
others in the world, they have become savages and are not
following right and good. That is savagery.
