Chocolate War

“In Literature, evil often triumphs but never conquers.” This quote means that sometimes evil has the tendency to overcome us but the good always prevails. I agree with this quote in terms of the character Jerry in the novel the Chocolate War by, Robert Cormier, because Jerry Renault a regular old kid who wasn’t trying to hurt anyone when deciding not to sell the chocolates, was actually going for what he believed in. Jerry …

…showed how they have good and evil in them and sometimes evil takes over or good ends up prevailing. Over all I feel that I agree with this quote. I also feel that this quote is not a quote that just fits or doesn’t fit for the story. I feel it is more of a quote that should be directed towards the characters. This quote was very interesting and had fit the story perfectly.
