"'We are not our own any more than what we posses is our own. We dis not make ourselves, we can not be supreme over ourselves. We are not our own masters. We are God's property.'"(232)
The conversation with Mustapha Mond explains further the decisions that lead to the start of this "prefect" world. This completes the first chapter of the book, answering any unanswered questions left. Mustapha's perspective, as one of the world leaders, is important because he knows every reason why the World State had to be efficient. He also knows how it feels to question the society and to want to go against it. However, he chose to stay and lead other into controlling science, instead of continuing to an island and furthering his scientific knowledge. This shows that the leaders know the positive and negative aspects of keeping society constant. Obviously he decided that the society was more important than scientific advance ment. His is, however, more of an outsider, because of his love for history and science that he can not share with every one else.
