"It has brought evil. Kino, my husband, it will destroy us." - Juana This quote reflects on how Juana looks at the pearl. She knows that ever since it was discovered by them nothing but bad things have happened to their family and if they keep it bad things will keep on happening.
"...but now it is my misfortune and my life and I will keep it."- Kino. I think that this quote reflects on Kino and how he is taking responsibility for his actions. He is agreeing that the pearl is bringing him bad luck like when his house was burnt down. But, he also knows that he can't sell the pearl anymore because its apart of him and it has influenced his decisions. It made me think of when Kino was repeating "I am man" because he is showing his brave and protective side.
"Luck you see, brings bitter friends."- neighboors When I see this quote i think about people who have alot of money or are famous. If you have something everyone wants they are going to be nice to you and try to become friends even though they don't really like you and they just want you to give them something.
