Answer:
The phrase spoken by Ralph reforms his attempt to maintain the civility and order to which they are accustomed. This reinforces the theme of a piece of civility and an attempt to hide who it really is.
Explanation:
This question is about the book "The lord of the flies" that tells the story of a group of English boys who fall on a paradisiac island and that as time goes on, they end up corrupting their human natures and the concept of civility giving themselves completely to savagery. Among these boys Ralph is the one who tries to organize them and prevent them from living like wild freaks.
Many boys decide to paint their faces to justify their decisions to live as wild hunters and not civilized boys, but Raph knows that this will create complete chaos and says that the boys will not pretend to be something they are not and therefore no one will paint their faces, as long as he can prevent it.
Answer:

Transcendentalism
First published Thu Feb 6, 2003; substantive revision Fri Aug 30, 2019
Transcendentalism is an American literary, philosophical, religious, and political movement of the early nineteenth century, centered around Ralph Waldo Emerson. Other important transcendentalists were Henry David Thoreau, Margaret Fuller, Lydia Maria Child, Amos Bronson Alcott, Frederic Henry Hedge, Elizabeth Palmer Peabody, and Theodore Parker. Stimulated by English and German Romanticism, the Biblical criticism of Herder and Schleiermacher, and the skepticism of Hume, the transcendentalists operated with the sense that a new era was at hand. They were critics of their contemporary society for its unthinking conformity, and urged that each person find, in Emerson’s words, “an original relation to the universe” (O, 3). Emerson and Thoreau sought this relation in solitude amidst nature, and in their writing. By the 1840s they, along with other transcendentalists, were engaged in the social experiments of Brook Farm, Fruitlands, and Walden; and, by the 1850s in an increasingly urgent critique of American slavery.
