In Alice Walker's short story, "Everyday Use", the quilts symbolize the African-American culture that Mama embraces and Wangeroo (Dee) attempts to reject of trivialize. Wangeroo is appalled that Mama would give Maggie the quilts, because Maggie would put them to "everyday use" instead of treating them as artifacts from a bygone age. The quilts help illustrate the schism between Mama and Wangeroo, and their opposed ideas about heritage -- or Mama, the quilts symbolize family unity and shared history; for Wangeroo, the quilts symbolize a past of slavery and oppression, objects to be put on display. When Mama gives the quilts to Maggie, it is a rejection of Wangeroo's attitude toward their shared heritage, but it is also a symbolic act -- the quilts, as symbols of family unity and history, are Maggie's birthright.

The main idea of this poem is that the choices we make will change our lives forever.
The narrator, in the third stanza, says "<span>Oh, I kept the first for another day! / Yet knowing how way leads on to way, / <span>I doubted if I should ever come back." He meant to try the other path (the other choice) later on, but because life takes us through so many twists and turns he doubted that he would ever actually get to see what that choice held for him.
In the final stanza he states that taking the less traveled road "</span></span><span>has made all the difference." His one choice changed his life forever, and because of the word "sigh" in that last stanza we can assume that maybe it was not changed in a good way.</span>
