Muley shows that he has the same feelings as the tenant farmer when he says, "There's the place down by the barn where Pa got gored to death by a bull. An' his blood is right in the groun', right now"(65-66).

.... you go in the bedroom and let me wait on them. They only frighten me if you're around."

.... weave elements of Taoism into the narrative to locate the "invisible core" of Chinese women's culture, of the immigrant family--and of the novel itself--within apparent conflicts or ambiguities. Tan's use of Confucianism may reveal her hypothesis of how a women's version of that patriarchal ethico-moral-ritual tradition might be passed down from mother to daughter and carried to America.

Opinion, for Plato, was a form of apprehension that was shifting and unclear, similar to seeing things in a dream or only through their shadows; its objects were correspondingly unstable.
