Most Important Line from Ender

In all books that people read there are good lines and bad lines, but then there are great lines. The main character Ender said a lot of insightful and interesting things. I mean what do you expect to come from a genius. The most important thing I think Ender said was near the beginning.  It was close to or right when Ender arrived at Battle School. "“As a species, we have evolved to survive. And the way we do it is by straining and straining and, at last, every few generations, giving birth to genius. The one who invents the wheel. And light. And flight. The one who builds a city, a nation, an empire.... Human beings are free except when humanity needs them. Maybe humanity needs you. To do something” (Card, 35). I think this is the best thing that Ender said because it was summing up all that us as humans have done and what we should do next. This quote really inspired me and I liked it a lot.

  1. Ender's Game is my favorite science fiction book I have ever read. IT can very deep and insightful at points just like in that quote. Does Humanity need us JC?
