Today's society focuses on the study of human behavior, moral values, and ethics. The novel No Country for Old Men, by Cormac McCarthy, is constantly cited for the moral questions it presents. Morality is essentially the knowledge of what is right and what is wrong. It is extremely important as it directly influences human behavior and minds. According to the article “What is morality and where does morality come from?”, morals in human society are inherent and internal to us, which literally means that the mechanism that creates morality is built-in (Joseph). Morality can also be considered an interpersonal value system because each person has their own set of moral values. In a sense, morality reveals what people are like because “[it] is part of their personality” (Joe). In No Country for Old Men, the two main characters of the plot, Llewelyn Moss and Anton Chigurh, both have one thing in common: they want to end up with a bag full of money. Chigurh basically hunts down Moss using his professional and sociopathic hitman skills while Moss continues to run for his life with the money. Throughout the story, morality plays an important role because it justifies the actions of all the characters, especially Moss and Chigurh. Both have their own moral compass that they use to determine further decisions. Morality is a characteristic that changes whenever different situations arise and also explains what type of personality a character takes on. Cormac McCarthy incorporates morality to identify the two main characters in the plot of No Country for Old Men. However, Chigurh plays his character with a much stronger moral code. Anton Chigurh has a very strict moral code that he follows whatever the situation. While Moss calls Carson Wells, another hitman and former lieutenant, to negotiate the money exchange
