"Fish is important to the Alaskan culture and is even sometimes brought to the extreme. "It's the gamble they all take, no fish, no money, no living. And then a glow came to his face. In the end, he lives to be on the water to fish, fishing is his life(22)." Even though people can get killed in fishing accidents, people still join in the frenzy of hoping for the one lucky catch of swimming money." Apr 24, 2014 06:57PM

"Writing the book has really changed the characters in perspective. By working together, Skeeter, Aibileen, and Minny have bonded together despite their colors. "'This one, this is for the white lady. You tell her we love her, like she's our own family.'" Before the book, the two races wouldn't dare do anything for each other. But after the book, they see her as a real, kind person despite their color and race." Mar 20, 2014 07:23PM

"Gordon is turning out to be a very reliable man. Even when Doniger and his crew brought him to their faculty, Gordon can still see through their words and actions. "'They don't trust anybody,' Gordon said, 'Believe me, nobody gets in here unless we intend for them to get in(146)."Gordon can see that Doniger brought them over just for his sake and can see right through his plans and his thoughts towards them."
