The Most Dangerous Game

          In the passage, “The Most Dangerous Game”, one of the many character is, Zaroff and he values liberty over equality. One example is Zaroff thinks that he is better than everyone and he can do what ever he wants. One impression that led me to believe this was when he said, he said, “Life is for the strong, and to be lived by the strong”. Second, he thinks all humans are worthless. During the story, he insults Ivan and said that “he was a savage” because he couldn't speak, or defend himself. The reason why he started killing human was because he already knew everything there is to know about hunting. In addition. to him thinking that he is better than everyone he also thinks it’s all right to hunt, and kill people. All he cares about is himself and nobody else. He bong sailors to ship-trap island and trained them to hunt well. Zaroff main purpose of doing this was so he can kill and hunt those sailors.   In conclusion, these are reasons that lead me to believe that Zaroff values liberty over equality.
