The Maze Runner Chapter 39 Quotes

How we cite the quotes:
(Chapter.Paragraph)

Gally > Thomas

Quote 1

"No one ever understood what I saw, what the Changing did to me! Don't go back to the real world, Thomas! You don't… want…to remember!" (39.19)

Ignorance is bliss, Gally.

Gally > Thomas

Quote 2

"You shut your shuck-face, Thomas. You shut up! I know who you are, but I don't care anymore. I can only do what's right." […] Gally gave Thomas a long, haunted look, his eyes full of terror; then he turned and dove into the writhing body of the Griever. (39.14, 20)

So, killing yourself is "doing what's right" here? Is self-sacrifice always the right thing to do? The benefit is that he takes one for the team by filling the "one kid abducted and killed per night" quota.
