Quota “ What you do, the way you think makes you beautiful.”

There is also discrimination. They show discrimination when they split everyone up based on age and the way they look. There is also discrimination in the “real world” where everyone thinks a different way and assumes things about each other. For example, someone must do a certain thing by a certain age and if not done they are a misfit, another example can be the way someone looks they might not be accepted in a certain environment without. People make assumptions even knowing if all of assumptions they are makeing are factual are real.

Qouta "But it's a trick, Tally. You've only seen pretty faces your whole life. Your parents, your teachers, everyone over sixteen. But you weren't born expecting that kind of beauty in everyone, all the time. You just got programmed into thinking anything else is ugly."
