.... Emerson’s motto. 1 This he believed was a step toward the recognition of the God within us. Each human being represented the embodiment of spirit, and that human possibilities were limitless. He placed us “inside” the world in a new way. Such as in the poem Fable, the squirrel said to the mountain, “If I cannot carry a forest on my back, neither can you crack a nut” (lines 18 and 19). In this poem, Emerson was trying to say everything has different strengths and weaknesses, but in the end they end up equal. ....

.... is more dangerous than the animals because he has the ability to reason. This ability makes man compete for things that are not tangible, like honor and dignity. This supports Hobbes' idea that man is self-centered and desires power (64). He has based his conception of mankind on the idea that all men are equal, even if others possess different strengths and talents. He argues: For such is the nature of men that, howsoever they may acknowledge many others to be more witty or more eloquent or more learned, yet they will hardly believe there be so many so wise as themselves, for they see their own wit at hand and other men's at a distance. (83) Hobbes' is trying to establish ....

.... Then when he died, her mirror was broken. This left her not knowing what to do cause she had no personality anymore because it died. After Kukin’s death, Olenka did nothing else but cry and dwell on the fact that she had no one to love. As she mourned, she said, “ my precious, my darling! Why did I ever know you and love you! You poor heart-broken Olenka is all alone without you,”(174). Then Pustovalov came along, the timber merchant, and she once again fell in love. This changed her life from the theater into a new life of business. Her husbands ideas were hers. If he thought the room was too hot, she thought the same. At one point, she tried so ha ....

.... is Orgon who gets in the way. Orgon tries to flatter by offering Marianne to be his wife. Before it is all over, Orgon ends up giving the deed to all his land to the deceitful . The other comic elements such as the unmasking of the villain and the happy ending are also present in . It is in the duality of Orgon, who is a believing and devoted subject, and , the manipulating hypocrite. Moliere takes his shot at the extremes of enthusiastic belief. plays the role of a man whose greedy actions are cloaked by a mask of overwhelming piety, modesty and religious passion. Orgon is the head of a household who has taken in, and given him shelter and food. Everyone in th ....

.... there were no owners and no rich and no poor either. All of the animals owned the farm just as all people owned the communist government and the government owned everything. Snowball was supposed to be Leon Trotsky both were young, smart and good speakers. Both Snowball and Trotsky followed the teachings of both Marx and Old Major. Snowball wanted to improve life on the farm just as Trotsky was trying to improve life in Russia. Trotsky was chased away by Lenin’s KGB or secret police just as snowball was chased away by Napoleon’s dogs. Napoleon himself was more Stalin than Lenin was however. Napoleon wasn’t a good speaker or clever like snowball just like Sta ....

.... she says “My hips are a desk” (line 1). Throughout the rest of the poem, personification of the woman as nothing more than a piece of office equipment is expressed with striking realism. In the first six lines of the poem the speaker describes herself in salient detail. Each of her body parts are placed with an obvious piece of office equipment. This allows the reader to form a solid picture of a woman sitting at her desk performing the daily drudgery of a secretary. She does not see herself as a real woman but a woman whose hair is”rubber bands” (3), whose”breasts are wells of mimeograph ink”, (5) and whose “feet bear casters” (6). The secretary is ....

.... were real and immediate was the process of a rational mind. Orr was crazy and could be grounded. All he had to do was ask; and as soon as he did, he would no longer be crazy and would have to fly more missions. Orr would be crazy to fly more missions and sane if he didn't, but if he was sane he had to fly them. If he flew them he was crazy and didn't have to; but if he didn't want to he was sane and had to. Yossarian was moved very deeply by the absolute simplicity of this clause of Catch-22 and let out a respectful whistle. "That's some catch, that Catch-22," he observed. "It's the best there is," Doc Daneeka agreed. One of the most important qualities of Catch-22 is its exp ....

.... from the water by the dam. Once the dam breaks, all the townspeople below get wet and are shaken to their foundations. Matthew Harrison Brady, without a doubt, deserves no sympathy. One example of Brady’s overly self-confidence would be "No…I believe we should welcome Henry Drummond." (Pg. 25). Ha! What a shock he is in for. His own "high and mighty" thinking is going to lead to his downfall. Even Brady is taken a tad aback by the news that Drummond will be joining the trial "Brady: (pale) Drummond?" (Pg. 25) While he basks in his loving audience of townspeople, he will yet be pulled down from his high throne to be questioned ....
