How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #4
"Think, on the one hand, of the almost indigent Abraham Lincoln, and on the other of Judas Iscariot. What I am saying is that emphasis upon money will pervert your values. One cannot begin to imagine how one's life may alter for the worse under the impetus of wealth-seeking." (4.46)
And this advice is coming from the Judge? From what we can gather he's gone against all of it. He compares Abe Lincoln, honest Abe, who was also poor, to Judas Iscariot, who betrayed his friend Jesus Christ in exchange for silver. His point is that wanting money might really make your life worse (Abe became the president; Judas hanged himself). Of course this doesn't apply to him. This passage illustrates what Pop meant about the Judge's "triple talk."
Quote #5
"Mr. Hobbs."
Roy stopped.
"Resist all evil—"
The match sputtered and went out. Roy went the rest of the way down in the pitch black. (4.87-90)
After his unsuccessful meeting with the Judge, Roy gets a morality lesson. "Resist all evil" can be taken as sarcastic in this scene, because it's obvious that the Judge has not been too successful at resisting evil. It's more like he's using morality to keep the people around him from messing up his own plans. When Roy descends into darkness it's kind of a symbol for losing his way, taking the wrong path.
Quote #6
Gus dropped his guard and pinned his restless eye on Roy.
"Say the word, slugger, and you can make yourself a nice pile of dough quick."
Roy wasn't sure he had heard right. Gus repeated the offer.
This time Roy was sure. "Say it again and I will spit in your good eye." (8.51-53)
The first time that Roy gets an offer to throw a game in exchange for some money he takes serious offense. At this point in the novel his moral compass is still working, and he can see right and wrong as plain as the nose on Gus' face. This indignation will come back to bite him when he's weak later on and takes the deal.
