""Poison to soul as well as body.' ...'Throw it all away, that horrible poison.' ...'I come to bring you freedom,' said the Savage." pg. 211
Soma is poison. People need to stop taking soma. This is what John believes because the soma is what killed his mother. He wants to help free people and bring change. He begs people of the World State to stop taking soma. He even goes to the trouble of throwing it all out the window. John wants people to be free to know the truth and have real relationships. Citizens of the the World State take soma to escape all pain and responsibility. John wants people to feel pain and suffering and to take responsibility.
