As the story proceeds Jack's character becomes more and more savage leaving behind the morals he once obtained. In the beginning Jack tries to settle the group by telling everyone that “we’ve got to have rules and obey them [a]fter all we’re not savages, we’re English”; and as time passes Jack changes his physical appearance by "[painting] [his] face" to display his superiority to the rest of the boys (Golding 42/74). Jack starts off with a high set of morals, cautious of becoming savage but after some time Jack results in the one to start the savage movement amongst the boys on the island. The evolution of Jack leads him to become a display of violence, domination and savagery to the boys in direct correlation to a Hobbesian view point that without a government man will become savage. Jack’s rush of domination leads him to “stab at Ralph's chest with his spear” (Golding 177). Jack's sense of violence overpowers his classical english morals and almost causes him to kill his once friend
