.... we use drugs to mask them. Linda's addiction to soma is also an illustration of the similarities of drug abuse between our two worlds. Linda's return to Brave New World after many years brings her to the abuse of soma. She uses it as an escape from reality. Some of us use drugs to escape from the harshness and the tough brutality of reality. We always dream of the perfect utopia and expect our world to transform into it. Some of us always look for the easy way out and drugs allow us that. A further similarity of Brave New World to us, is when John is in the hospital after his mother's death due to soma abuse, and witnesses the workers receiving their soma rations. John be ....

.... of love are demonstrated by the characters throughout the play. Shakespeare uses great symbolism in portraying the blindness of love. When Puck and Oberon apply the juice of the pansy to the eyes of the Athenians and to the eyes of Titania, the fairy queen, they are quickly enveloped by a magical love spell. This spell causes them to fall deeply in love with the first living creature that they set eyes on. "The next thing then she waking looks upon, (Be it lion, bear, or wolf, or bull, On meddling monkey, or on busy ape) She shall pursue it, with the soul of love". The spell can only be reversed by applying yet another herb to the eyes of the victims. Titania serve ....

.... usually understands the utterance immediately (meaning that the adressee does not need much time to think about an utterance before understanding the message). Deixis makes discourse easier and more effective, giving us a means to pass more information in less time. Nevertheless, there are certain situations making an interpretation difficult or even impossible, mostly when we only get chunks of information and therefore lack context. If, for example, a person tells a story and forgets to give the essential information a deictic term refers to, we will grow aware of the weakness the deictic system features. Or if the fax machine just receives the second page of a letter, be ....

.... describes the case in this quote, "In our courts when it's a white man's word against a black man's, the white man always wins. They're ugly, but those are the facts of life." There is a sense of support for the African-Americans present in the novel too. Mr. Dolphus Raymond states his opinions of discrimination to Dill perfectly, "You aren't thin-hided, it just makes you sick, doesn't it?" Atticus also tells his children some very good advice for the future, "As you grow older you'll see white men cheat black men every day of your life, but let me tell you something and don't you forget it-whenever a white man does that to a black man, no matter who he is, how rich he ....

.... of wealth and luck became Willy’s dream, and it almost became reality. Willy realizes that in fact he has lived his life in vain, never achieving nor succeeding but remaining a shadow of his ambition. It is this sudden insight that urges him into a fantasy, afraid to face the future. It is only through Willy’s failure as a salesman that his innate desire for the outdoors is exposed. At the end of the play, Charley mentions, "… He was a happy man with a batch of cement … so wonderful with his hands … he had the wrong dreams, all wrong.". It has been often said that the play emphasize the path not taken may have been the right one, still Willy holds the ....

.... the late 1930's. "To Kill A Mockingbird" takes place in Alabama also around the late 1930's. The late 30's in the South was very difficult (to say the least) for black folks. Grandmother Henderson and Maya are experiencing racism from three lower class white girls. "If they come in the store, you go in the bedroom and let me wait on them. They only frighten me if you're around." Atticus and the children are experiencing harassment from other white folks, for defending a "nigger" named Tom Robinson. "But Mrs. Dubose held us: "Not only a Finch waiting on tables but one in the courthouse lawing for niggers!" These quotes show the attitude of most whites towar ....

.... the week, Enfield points out an old building without many windows, and only a basement door. Enfield tells a story of how, one night at about 3:00 am, he saw a strange, deformed man round the corner and bump into a young girl. The strange man did not stop but simply walked right over the young girl, who cried out in terror. Enfield rushed over and attended the girl along with her family. Still, the strange man carried on, so Enfield chased him down and urged him back. A doctor was called and Enfield and the doctor felt an odd hatred of the man, warning the man that they would discredit him in every way possible unless he compensated the girl. The strange man agreed to offe ....
