Stephon is writing an essay that compares and contrasts characters from two different texts. The two characters he is comparing and contrasting are Manjiro from Heart of a Samurai and William, the narrator of The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind. One similarity he notes is that Manjiro and William are both courageous.
Which quotation from Heart of a Samurai would be most relevant for Stephon to include in his notes to support the idea that Manjiro is courageous?
Manjiro squinted across the expanse of glittering sea at the line of dark clouds forming on the horizon. “What lies there,” he wondered aloud, “across the sea?”
“Does the wind often howl so?” Manjiro squeaked. He knew he should not ask so many questions, but he couldn’t help himself.
“I’d be like the noble samurai of old times: heroic warriors who were loyal to their lords, and who studied calligraphy and poetry as well as the art of fighting.”
“May I humbly suggest,” Manjiro said, “that on this island, we are the rulers – we are the Samurai of Bird Island.”
