Huck Finn Morality

In The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, author Mark Twain uses Huck to demonstrate how one’s conscience is an aspect of everyday life. The decisions we make are based on what our conscience tells us which can lead us the right way or the wrong way. Huck’s deformed conscience leads him the wrong way early on in the chapters, but eventually in later chapters his sound mind sets in to guild him the rest …

…him go against societys rules and let him think by himself. It’s just like the poem by Stephen Crane that says, “’Think as I Think,” said a man, “Or you are abominably wicked; You are a toad.” And after I had thought of it, I said, “I will, then, be a toad.’” This is just like Huck because all of his decisions that he makes based on instinct and not what society tells him.
