Quote Essay from the City of Ember



            Authors Note: This quote was from the City of Ember and to sum up the quote it really means to pay attention to everything around you and don’t miss anything because that could really help Doon and his job in the pipes.
            “The main thing is, pay attention. Pay close attention to everything, everything you see. Notice what no one else notices, and you'll know what no one else knows. What you get is what you get. What you do with what you get, that's more the point,” Is the main quote from the story the City of Ember because it means that if you see something in the pipes or in the streets of Ember. That is a pretty good quote because it tells all the characters to watch out and if you find a clue or something that can be better for the City of Ember then you should remember that and try to make it a better city.
            Next on the list; this quote shows reference to a character, in general and that is Doon because his dad told him that because he thought that that could help him do better in his job and to see things around him. Every since that moment when Doons dad told him that sentence Doon has always been on the lookout because Doons dad thought and said that could really help him be a really good pipe worker. I think his dad is really trying to help him in the long run because if he keeps this job up then he would have helped him big time but it he decides to quit and do something else then that would help him too if he keeps remembering and seeing stuff around him.
            To conclude this piece, I think that this quote is a really good quote it uses a lot of reasons why his dad said that quote and why it meant something to the book. I thought that it meant if he keeps his eyes open then something good will find its way in. Doons dad wouldn’t say that if he didn’t want Doon to succeed so that’s why it is one of the most important quotes in the book the City of Ember.
