The Time Traveller feels that the Elois are good-looking but they are unintelligent and lazy. On the other hand, the Morlocks are more initiative and hardworking even though they look disgusting and inhuman.
He thought the Elois have the dainty attributes of a human but they were also depicted as naïve and innocent. He speculates that the Elois are descended from nobles and the Morlocks from laborers.
The Time Traveller sees the Eloi as a weak, lazy, and unintelligent race evolved from the aristocratic upper class. He also calls them childish in both their appearance and behavior. In contrast, he views the Morlocks as an ugly but industrious race who have evolved from the servant or working class. He frequently uses terms like ape and human spider to describe their appearance and movement.
In this chapter, the Time Traveller initially believes that, over time, humanity managed to eliminate all dangers and unpleasant elements in nature. As a result, upper class humans of the future have no need for work or any kind of physical or mental exertion. Unfortunately, this process has led to a race of people who are weak, childish, and unintelligent. In contrast, the Morlocks have been made to work underground for the Eloi. In reaction to the potential threat of starvation or suffocation, they have adapted to survive underground for a continued period of time. Their appearance and behavior have evolved to suit their job and life underground.PLATO
