.... The other to people in the house, Tom's sister and mother, do not seem to work at all, other than the fact that Tom's mother sells magazine subscriptions over the phone. The character is played well by, Chris Hendrix. He is fitted in what seems to be typical factory workers' uniforms. The actual acting of Tom is amazing. He looks as if he really gets into the part. In some of the narrative scenes, Tom actually leaves the stage and walks up and down the aisle of the theatre. No matter how unconventional his action, it was very effective. That action brought the play to the audience and made the audience feel as if they were active members of the play. Given the fac ....

.... which is Latin for “greed is the root of evil.” The pardoner’s entire practice is based upon his motto and is motivated entirely by greed. The pardoner is supposed to forgive sins, however, he views his position as a scheme to make money and turns it into a fraud. His excellent speaking skills allow him to turn this profession into a scam. He attracts the people with his storytelling and his sermons, which are pleasing to them, “By God, I hope I shal yow telle a thyng / That shal by reson been at youre liking,” (457-58). One example of a sermon about his motto is the tale of the three rioters. This tale gives an ironic explanat ....

.... to be the most intense read I have had for quite a while. The heroine of the novel, Chyna Shepherd, is a 26-year old psychology student working hard to avoid being Edgler Vess’ next victim. Staying in the guest room of a friends house she hears “a soft thump, as though a heavy object had fallen to a carpeted floor.” Then there is “silence sifted down like a snowfall.” Pg.23. Things become suspenseful already. As mentioned in a book review by Mark Harris, Chyna doesn’t act like a horror-movie teenager and run into the hall. She does like most of us would do; she hides under the bed. Koontz really makes it feel like you could be the one squished under th ....

.... and when they realized they were wrong, they would retreat back to their money. It was always other people that had to pay for Tom and Daisy's careless mistakes. Daisy also admitted that she was careless in a dialogue with Nick. "I am careful." "No, you're not" "Well, other people are," she said lightly. "What's that got to do with it?" "They'll keep out of my way," she insisted. "It takes two to make an accident." "Suppose you meet somebody just as careless as yourself." "I hope I never will," she answered. "I hate careless people."(63) She quickly resp ....

.... situations in the novel, and can be said to be the chief lesson Flaubert wishes to incorporate. In this passage, Emma remembers her past, a time when she was more innocent and perhaps less preoccupied with her troubles. She remembers her time in the convent as a young girl—a time when she was happy and passionate about life, for awhile. Then she grew bored with the ordinary life of a student in a convent, and the stories of love and passion called to her more than ever. She remembers how she had longed for the love affairs that she had read about in her romance novels, and how she had imagined her future. She recalls how her imagination had carried her away into ....

.... the entire book, as Stoker uses more and more beliefs from Christianity as the novel lengthens. There are many ways that Bram Stoker's character can be considered the Anti-Christ, mostly because of the showing of Anti-Christian values and perversions of the Christian religion. In chapter one as Jonathan Harker is traveling to Castle he is met by several people. When he meets these people he tells them where he is going. They cross themselves along with doing other superstitious actions. What Harker doesn't realize is that it was the eve of Saint George's Day, a night when "all the evil things in the world will have full sway"[12]. So, one of the women concerned for ....

.... and corruption of his fellow men; he is literally speechless before Africa and Africans. His purpose would be to rescue the "grails" from the "God-forsaken wilderness" with a reward in "the tidal current...crowded with memories of men...the great knights-errant of the sea." The contrast of darkness and light (evil vs. good), illusions brought from those who have seen the grails, and the elements of the quest itself proves of Marlow's disillusioned purpose. Light and darkness contrasted throughout the novel as the "forces of evil and good." These contrasts also figuratively considered being civilized and uncivilized ( with the light representing civilization or the ci ....
