Lens Quotation: "Character is what you are in the dark." -Dwight Lyman Moody
"Character is what you are in the dark" a quote from Dwight Lyman Moody, is a powerful and thoughtful view on the way people behave. I believe that it encompasses how people show their true nature when no one is around, when no one is there to judge or ridicule their actions and or decisions.
The book I decided would best fit this quote is Warriors Into The Wild, it follows Rusty, an ordinary house cat, on his journey to becoming a warrior. He had always been intrigued by the forest on the other side of his garden fence, but kept telling himself and his friend smudge, the cat that lived next door, that he was content with his life has a "kittypet" and sought out nothing more than to live is soft, pampered life with little hardship.
Finally after many dreams of going into the forest and catching live prey, he revealed to his friend that he wanted to venture out of the garden, when out in the forest he is attacked by an apprentice of thunder clan by the name of Greypaw, and little did he know, their clan leader was watching from the trees with her deputy and Greypaws mentor Lionheart. The leader ultimately decided that she wanted rusty to join their clan, and gave him one day to make a decision.
Though Rusty was attacked, and told the many dangers of clan life and the struggle of leaf bare, he decided to join the clan cats, he knew he was a forest cat, and wanted to join their ranks. no matter how many times he tried to stay with the twolegs, he always sought more. He sought adventure, and unity with the forest cats. His true character finally came to light, he was not a pampered kittypet, he was a warrior.
