“All right, then, I’ll go to hell”
This quote is said by Huck to himself about the things he said about turning Jim in. Huck was going to turn Jim into the slave hunters but decides not to because he is Jim’s friend. He chooses to be loyal to his friend instead of giving into society. Society has always been telling him the blacks are property, but Huck goes against that and doesn’t turn Jim in. He knows that him going against society will send him to hell but he is ready to go to hell to save a friend. He would rather go to hell then to not be loyal to a fiend.
“But if they was joyful, it warn’t nothing to what I was; for it was like being born again, I was so glad to find out who I was.”
This quote is said by Huck. This quote contradicts itself, because it says that Huck wasn’t joyful but that he felt like he was bring born again and that made him happy. This quote is the perfect example of contradiction. Huck was feeling happy but just not in the way the other were feeling.
