Loyalty in the Outsiders novel!

  1. Page 8, “They didn’t hurt you too bad did they?”
  2. Page 16, “Soda always takes up for me”
  3. Page 33, “When you’re in a gang, you stick up for the other members. If you don’t stick up for them, stick together, make like brothers, it isn’t a gang anymore.”
  4. Page 147, “The truth of the last statement hit me. We couldn’t get along without him.”



  1. This quote shows that when a member gets hurt the gang comes together and checks up on the injured member.
  2. This quote shows that Soda protects Ponyboy as a brother, whereas Dally acts as his father.
  3. This quote shows the closeness and brotherliness of the gang members.
  4. This quote shows that the gang cannot live harmoniously without Johnny, it shows that the relationship between one member and another is very close.
