.... There again we were reminded of the way she was brought up: "Once upon a time we were well brought up women; we were dutiful wives who kept our heads veiled, our voices shy and sweet" (543). Only this time the statement is ironic. Shaila's actions show us that she is far from the voiceless, week female she was brought up to be. Shaila was not responsible for her own heredity. She could not control much of her environment in which she was brought up, but she had the power and internal strength to face the life with her individual rejoinder. She .....

This is best shown when he eventually forgives and even prays for the Mestizo who betrayed him: “The priest waved his hand; he bore no grudge because he expected nothing else of anything human...” (P. 198) This shows that that whiskey priest is a forgiving man and this indeed helps to validate that the whiskey priests statement is inaccurate. Graham Greene portrays to the reader that the whiskey priest thinks of others before himself. This i .....

.... got into the second chapter. I didn't want to put the book down. I sometimes have trouble trying to find a book that's actually interesting, but I didn't have any trouble with this book.

He broke the vow of chastity by having adulterous relationships with other women. By wearing expensive clothes, spending his time with wealthy people rather than helping beggars or sick lepers, he broke the vow of poverty. The Pardoner is a person who says .....
