| They were to be like insects, not bees or ants which could sting or bight, but, tiny flies which could do no harm as there was noting in creation so feeble as to not be able to molest them. | This is showing that TCG are insignificant and have no value. Real deviding line between classes and Jenkins emphesises the temendous segregation between them by comparing them to flies. Everyday experience for TCG |
| "We're human beings just like them!" | Lady Runcie-Campbell believes she is superior to the lower classes. Duror enjoys the small luxuries he is given because of his higher-status job as a gamekeeper, but Neil hates the class structure and this carrries through to the end. |
| "The likes of you and me have just got to help it when our betters tell us." | A comment made by Neil reflecting how UNimportant TCG are to Lady Runcie-Campbell. Shows how uncaring she is. |
| "What is the matter, Neil? wailed Callum. "Why did you chace them away?" "Because they were doing no harm." | Here Jenkins makes a subtle comparison of TCH to the dear that have effectivly been chaced out of the wood throught the voice of Neil. TCG have done nothing wrong and are innocent yet are also effectily being chaced out of the wood by Duror. |
| "If you get drunk, Neil," he said, "the policeman will lock you up." "... And what if he did? I'll tell you something: the cell he'd lock me up in would be bigger that our hut, aye, and cleaner." | Earlier on in the novel the shed that TCG are living in get compared to that of the size of a rabbit hutch. The fact that the jail cell is enough to display the image that the place they live in is dank, smelly and depressing. Neil later complains about how the Lady has many spare free rooms up on her estate where she lives, but denies the access to the mantion. Another devison between the classes. |
