Character Description
Noah is a film buff and aspires to be a director. At the beginning he's shy, repressed, in denial about his sexuality, submissive towards his father and willing to lie and use others. He lacks self-awareness, as well as perception of other people's feelings. In times of conflict he tends to go into denial to avoid dealing with others or himself. As the series progresses, he becomes more confident and assertive through his relationship with Luke Snyder and learns how to deal with problems rather than run away from them. He loses his fear of his father and gains a stronger sense of self. His major struggle is to reconcile his self-image with his father's perception of him.

Famous quotes containing the words character and/or description:
“But boys and girls, pale from the imagined love
Of solitary beds, knew what they were,
That passion could bring character enough
And pressed at midnighht in some public place
Live lips upon a plummet-measured face.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“I was here first introduced to Joe.... He was a good-looking Indian, twenty-four years old, apparently of unmixed blood, short and stout, with a broad face and reddish complexion, and eyes, methinks, narrower and more turned up at the outer corners than ours, answering to the description of his race. Besides his underclothing, he wore a red flannel shirt, woolen pants, and a black Kossuth hat, the ordinary dress of the lumberman, and, to a considerable extent, of the Penobscot Indian.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
