Quote: "Why had Max asked him all those questions? He knew that Max was seeking facts to tell the judge; but in Max's asking of those questions he had felt a recognition of his life, of his feelings, of his person that he had never encountered before"(360).
Significance: This quote is significant because it shows how much Max really is helping Bigger. Bigger just does not realize it until Max leaves. Bigger is finally understanding his feelings and why he did what he did to those two women. He is seeing and understanding all the things he did when he did not see them from the start. By Bigger recognizing all of these things, he starts believing in Max and now he does care what happens to him and he does not want to die. Max is helping him realize what had happen in his life and what he did and that he should care. Max wants Bigger to stand up for his people and fight against the court. Bigger is finally understanding that.
Question: Why does Max keep trying to help Bigger if Bigger does not believe he can be helped?
