“What you do when you git mad? She ast. I think. I can’t even remember the last time I felt mad, I say. I used to git mad at my mammy….Then I see how sick she is. Couldn’t stay mad at her. Couldn’t be mad at my daddy….Bible say, Honor father and mother no matter what.”
I feel like this is the most important passage in the whole novel because it shows how passive Celie is and how she respects others even though they don't respect her. Her father would beat and rape her yet she never showed him how she felt. Also her mother was very very rude and bossy, yet celie stood by her and took care of her all the way to her death.
