.... light, in twilight, candlelight, lamplight, and worst of all moonlight, it becomes bars!”(Gilman 211) This shows how the narrator feels trapped by the paper. Another symbol that refers to the role women play is, “And she is all the time trying to climb through that pattern, it strangles so; I think that is why it has so many heads.”(Gilman 213) This is meaning that if a women tried to play a role in society she was just not taken seriously, or felt like trying to play a role was getting nowhere. The way Gilman describes the wallpaper tells of what the narrator’s mind is thinking, “and when you follow the lame uncertain curves for a little distan ....

.... him to be sexually scarred and thus set him apart from anyone else. Jake seemed to be an observer who was watching the lives of his friends unfold and happen around him, but without his participation. I read that Hemingway had purposely re-written the book in first person and this was probably to spell out that Jake was an observer and was thus aware of what was written on the pages. There is a scene towards the end of the book where Jake finds all of his friends eating at a restaurant and thinks to himself that he is too far behind to catch up. Jake always seems behind, or at least only a marginal player put so in his position because of his injury. He must have had relatio ....

.... not ask any comer whether he has a name, but whether he has an affliction. You are suffering; you are hungry and thirsty; be welcome. And do not thank me; do not tell me that I take you into my house..... whatever is here is yours." (pg. 15-16) The bishop didn't look at him as a convict; he looked at him as a fellow brother. Later, when the bishop found out that Valjean stole his silver, he wasn't mad, but offered all of his silver to Valjean saying, "Don't forget that you promised me to use this silver to become an honest man." Thénardier, on the other hand, is the exact opposite of the bishop. He represents the corruptive nature of society. He's the one that changes pe ....

.... developed into and excellent portrayal. The characters who played Marcellus, the first Grave digger and Oris, Jack Lemmon, Billy Crystal, and Robin Williams respectively, were fairly poor selections by the casting director. They lacked a certain Shakespearian character as famous comedians. It could not be forgotten making the choices dispiriting. “You tremble and look pale” (1.1.53). The first viewing of the ghost causes the guards great fear. They are unsure if what they have seen is “something more than just fantasy” (1.1.54). It appears to be the body of the late King Hamlet but perhaps it could be their boggled minds. When the ghost enter ....

.... a big holiday bash, while Torvald would rather refrain since there is a rather limited cash flow. “Nora: Oh yes, Torvald, we can squander a little now…piles of money” (1506). Torvald follows up with, “But then it is three full months till the raise comes through” (, 1506). Nora at this point in the play is nothing more than a child, careless in her action and not thinking ahead of possible consequences. Nora sees nothing wrong in spending big on Christmas. Granted this is a righteous cause, since the holidays are about giving to others, but still a parent should know the limit of happiness they should bring. At this point Torvald begins to act as “society” ....

.... century. Famine and war plague the earth, technology has become the ultimate power of the people, materialistic possessions carry the people, and the citizens of this new world have lost all heart. I am hesitant to describe the technological advances that take place in the future. The changes would shock you and cause you to disbelieve my experiences, so I choose to keep that to myself until a later date and describe to you the changes in government and morality. Citizens of the future have selfishly sacrificed themselves to the clasped fists of riches and wealth. God has become a secondary priority to man. It seems that individuals have forgotten that God is the ru ....

.... poetic beauty discussing love, dramatic speeches filled with bombast, humorous speeches, and mischievous wordplays. Passages of great poetic beauty discussing love are very common in all of Shakespeare’s texts. For example in The Merchant of Venice, before Bassanio is about to select the correct casket, he is urged by Portia to delay his selection in case he fails. However Bassanio wishes to continue. Portia: I pray you tarry, pause a day or two Before you hazard, for in choosing wrong I lose your company. Therefore forbear awhile. There’s something tells me (but it is not love) I would not lose you, and you know yourself Hate consels not in s ....

.... Her grey eyes are crossed, and the rest of her features are equally unattractive. Yet, the people of the small, southern town of Cheehaw accept her quirkiness because of the equisite wine that she sells in her store and for her free doctoring and homemade remedies. Still, everyone is shocked when the handsome outlaw, Marvin Macy, falls in love with her. Marvin is a "bold, fearless, and cruel" man who changes his unlawful ways to win Miss Amelia's love. Rather than robbing houses he begins attending church services on Sunday mornings. In an effort to court Miss Amelia, he learns proper etiquette, such as "rising and giving his chair to a lady, and abstaining from swearing ....
