Ralph admires piggy because piggy has a clear sense of things. He doesn't think about the negatives. And he doesn't think things that will get him scared. He states the truth and lives with it. that is what makes him who he is.

Ralph and Piggy are two of the main characters in 'Lord of the flies' by William Golding. They show their personalities in their conversations. Ralph tends to talk about what should be done or how their parents would manage things. Piggy tends to doubt a lot of things and worry.

Ralph is described as well built, "fair" and good looking. Golding stets that Ralph might have been a boxer" in later years. Piggy is distinguished only by his fat,Asthma and myopia. Initially Ralph is a boy filled with wonder about being stranded on an island. He lacks Piggy's intellectual sophistication and logical thought. Piggy has been conditioned to be a victim in the old world. He desperately seeks attention and reinforcement from those he finds are safe. He is a methodical thinker. He is empathetic to the littluns who are treated badly because he has been treated the same way. It is important to note that both boys evolve through the book.

Piggy does not go along with the killing of Simon, however Ralph does, which shows Piggy's superiority to Ralph. Lord of the Flies was written by William Golding.
