Throughout the whole story, he never changed, because he continued showing this kindness. This is important in building his character because his qualities never change, and it makes him a very confident character. In most instances in the book, he was much kinder to others than they were to him. He was always looking to help Jacques and others as much as he could. An example of this is when Jacques had lice covering his entire body. Even though Pierre-Joseph did not know Jacques at the time, and Jacques had never done anything for him, he still showed him great kindness. He helped him out by lending him his cloak and washing the clothes that were infested with the lice. One more example of Pierre-Joseph's kindness is how he repaid Jacques for freeing him from the Bastille. The book says, "Indeed, despite his age he did far more for me than I for him. He washed the clothes, made the meals, and in the winter rose and had the fires burning long before I ever stirred. He also cleaned my tools, swept the shop, and kept my aprons mended." Pierre-Joseph probably knew that he didn't have to do all of this for Jacques, but he did it anyway. He wanted to show Jacques how thankful he was to

First off, is the element of forgiveness. In a book of mistrust, poverty, and hate…forgiveness thrives in the world of Les Miserables. The first example of this was at the very beginning, when Jean Valjean stayed with the bishop. Valjean stole his silver…and ran off. He ends up being caught by police, but when the police questioned the bishop, he claimed to have given the silver to Valjean. Jean was confused…and the bishop claimed that with the silver, he had purchased the convicts soul, and had given it to God, and from that day forward, Valjean must be a good man. Another example of forgiveness goes two ways. Javert, in his relentless pursuit of Valjean, is captured by revolutionaries. In reward for saving the lives of a few of these revolutionaries, Valjean asks for, and gets, permission to take Javert outside, and kill him. Once outside, a small monologue occurs…and Valjean releases Javert, and lets him go free. Valjean just wanted to be left alone in peace, and hoped this act of kindness would change Javert, and make him realize that Valjean was no longer the man he was. The second way…is that in the end, after Javert finally captures Valjean, he lets him go. Since Javert had broken the law… that he loved so dearly, he kills himself shortly thereafter, by jumping into a river.
