"Simon became inarticulate in his effort to express mankind's essential illness."
-Lord of the Flies Page 89
Simon attempts to explain to the other boys what is really the beast on the island. He attempts to tell them that the real beast might be themselves. The soverignty on the island has been breaking down because of the disagreements in leadership. Simon believes that the once noble endeavors of the islanders have become skewed and evil. Jack and his posse once worked for the good of the island, but became engulfed in pride.
