Line 9:
** Oh, and let's not forget the memory of [[War Is Hell|dying soldiers.]] From Jonas's point of view, ''it lasted for'' '''''hours.'''''
* [[Tear Jerker]]: What happened to {{spoiler|Rosemary}} is bad enough, but when you find out that {{spoiler|she was The Giver's ''daughter,'' and that he watched her "being released," and that HE plans on "being released" himself now that he's finished teaching Jonas,}} it takes on a whole new level of depressing.
* [[This Is Your Premise
* [[Uncanny Valley]]
* [[Unfortunate Implications]]: The idea of an eye color being "superior", especially [[Blue Eyes|light eyes]], may be shady if you're [[Godwin's Law|thinking that way]], but the even more unfortunate implication is that Jonas's first "encounter" with people of a different race is them brutally killing a defenseless elephant.
