Question

Which excerpt from Anthem best supports the theme that man’s spirit is unconquerable?                   I lift my head and I spread my arms. This, my body and spirit, this is the end of the quest. Through all the darkness, through all the shame of which men are capable, the spirit of man will remain alive on this earth. It was a long story, and the spirit which moved it was the spirit of man’s freedom. The fortune of my spirit is not to be blown into coins of brass and flung to the winds as alms for the poor of the spirit.
