Section 2 Quotes

" There are good things each year".

• I chose this quote because it resembles the meaning of a new year. New Year makes a New Person.

" We are convinced that Jonas has the ability to acquire wisdom".

• I chose this quote because of how someone thinks what someone knows. But Jonas can't acquire wisdom because he as never been taught it before but now he has learned how to use wisdom.

"Everything is different, even the nameplates on our bikes".

• This one was a hard quote to pick because things haven't really changed much unless Jonas is talking about a new year the yes, alot has changed.
