The relationship between Willy and Linda Loman is deeper and more complex than it may seem at first.

.... Fezzik attempts to offer some good ideas, but Vizzini will have none of it. ““I think we should kill her now”, the Turk said. “The less you think, the happier I’ll be,” The Scilian answered”. (Page 83) And later on the same page: “…the Turk mumbled. “people are always thinking that I’m so stupid because I’m big and strong and sometimes drool a little when I get excited.”” ““The reason people think you’re so stupid,” the Scilian said, “is because you are so stupid. It has nothing to do with your drooling.”” Vizzini manages, with his constant verbal ....

.... of these three poems are alike in that they are all about woods and outdoors or an item in the woods. The word "wood" or "woods" is used in each of these poems, at least once. It is used to represent both literally the tree or trees, and figuratively, they represent a journey to peace, a climb to "heaven". In "The Road Not Taken", the "wood" is merely the setting. It is described as a "yellow wood". This is obviously fall. I can see the orange, yellow and red leaves, lying all around. The gray/brown bark of the trees where the leaves are already fallen. The bright plumes where they have not. The trees also hide the ....

.... bad part of war, the stuff that nobody wants to hear about. He does this by giving graphic details. In one part of the book the protagonist Johnny wonders why he didn't die from his wounds. He remembers how some people who have a limb blown off are lucky enough to have maggots infest the wound. They are lucky because the maggots help keep gangrene out of it by eating the dead tissue. He thinks that he is missing his arms and legs and thinks that it's because he didn't have any maggots to keep the wound clean. The book talks about a rat that nibbles at Johnny during the night and there's nothing he can do about it because he cannot move without a nurse helping him. A f ....

.... take all the blame and ridicule for the lover’s sins, and he avoided his family in order to preserve his image. Although Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale had numerous opportunities to confess the truth of his sin to his church, he chose to hold the black secret inside himself. On the other hand, Hester Prynne could not hide the truth because Pearl and the scarlet letter “A” were open confessions of her sin. Hester had committed adultery and she felt that “God, as a direct consequence of the sin, had given her a child, whose place was on that same dishonored bosom.”(82) Pearl was sent from God as a reminder to Hester and the Puritan community of her s ....

.... of main contrasts between the three. Laertes is a mirror to Hamlet. Shakespeare has made them similar in many aspects to provide a greater base for comparison when avenging their respective father's deaths. Hamlet and Laertes love Ophelia. Hamlet wishes Ophelia to be his wife, Laertes loves Ophelia as a sister. Hamlet is a scholar at Wittenberg, and Laertes at France. Both are admired for their swordsmenship. Both men loved and respected their fathers, and display deviousness when plotting to avenge their father's deaths. Hamlet's response to grief is a trait starkly contrasted by Laertes. Laertes response to the death of his father is immediate. He is publicly angry, and ....

.... identification and many other things. Some people say that this is the beginning to the completely government controlled society where your every move is followed by the administration. The year is 2096. We are standing in the airport near Copenhagen. A lot of people are walking by with their net-agents. A small computer-program that has been trained to inform you on all the things that you find interesting. To identify themselves they have their citizen-card plugged into the device. An agent is calling our net-computer. He wishes to inform us about all the activities in Copenhagen today but of course only the ones he knows we might be interested in. The agents are a very ....
