    Despite his antisocial behavior, Silas is an openhearted, deeply kind and honest person. Nowhere in the novel does Silas do or say anything malicious nor is her selfish. Silas’s has an awkward love of money is merely the product of spiritual destruction, yet he has a hidden bottle of love that is expressed when he begins to raise Eppie. He is physically powerful and carries an enjoyable presence, Godfrey is overall very passive. Actually, he is similar to Silas. However, Godfrey’s passivity is quite noticeably different from Silas', as his endless indecisiveness based entirely from selfishness. Godfrey is constantly targeted to constant blackmail from Dunsey, who has knowledge of Godfrey’s hidden secretive marriage, which later Godfrey is freed of his malicious brother's antics by an accident due to Molly slipping up and spilling the details of the marriage. Even Godfrey’s confessions is a bit late as it comes years too late and once he was finally up to care for Eppie, she'd had a new father which was Silas. Nancy, whom is quite iffy and questionable thought out to me, lives her life based on code of behavioral beliefs. She has already decided how she feels about every thing in her life, not completely on the basis of any such reason, but because anything else is weak and fragile in her eyes. When Nancy was younger, this "code" of hers quite hugely says that she and her sister must dress alike on formal dinners, balls, weddings and such. When she is older, Nancy’s code says it's an absolute no for her to adopt a child since in her mind an action of the sorts is like a defiance of God’s plan. Nancy is not well educated or interested in much, Nancy is, however, a true kind and caring person, based off her willing to forgive Godfrey after his confession, which I still think is because God wont allow you into Heaven if you do not forgive all those whom have sinned against you.
