No County For Old Men
Sheriff Bell uses God and the law as reference points for morality. These moral frameworks give him a clear sense of right and wrong and influence his life as an officer, husband, and community member.
Assassin Anton Chigurh on the other hand, becomes the ambassador of the novel’s philosophy on fate and free will. In his interactions with other characters, Chigurh continually suggests that every choice we make determines our fate—even small actions bring us toward death. The coin toss is an extreme example of the connection between our choices and their eventual outcomes.
Compare and contrast their two life philosophies.
