Sketchbook Entry: John

Reference Quote: "He had Seen, for the first time in his life, the face of a girl whose cheeks were not the color of chocolate or dog skin, whose hair was golden and beautiful, and who looked at him kindly."

Evidence that John Does Have very Real feelings toward Lenina. Him meeting her was a revolutionary point in his identity, but these feelings are contradictory toward what his views of sexuality are, and in turn he punishes himself for having them.

Lenina, my Juliet. She is a diamond in the most extraneous of roughness. Our fate has been brought together for some reason, I just know it! Though her society has brainwashed her into believing she is something she's inherently not...I know she isn't. It does discourage me that we could be gazing at the most awing of oaks, seemingly miles high. Having the might most Gods dream of. While she could be thinking of all the ways that tree could fit well in her apartment. Could it be a vanity, a makeup chest, maybe even a couch. This horrid state has played her mind like a fiddle. Molding it into that of a machine. Obeying the commands given, only knowing what is wanted of them, not what they truly want for themselves.
