Aldous Huxley once wrote, “If one's different, one's bound to be lonely.” This is clearly a statement about public acceptance and tolerance of dissimilar people. Aldous’ beliefs can be seen in his book, Brave New World by two outcast characters, John Savage and Bernard Marx.

Although many citizens are conditioned to appreciate the community they live in, both Bernard and John

Three distinctly different views aided these thoughts, Linda 's highly spoken words of the brave new world, the Pueblo men and their traditional beliefs, and Shakespeare 's romanticized notions. The collision of these three worlds thus compose the mind of John the Savage, a mind with a belief in a god, a naive view of a world only spoken of
