.... In the first act Hamlet appears to be crazy when he hears of his father’s murder. He speaks irrationally to Horatio, who comments that Hamlet is speaking “ wild and whirling words”(I.v.149). Also, Hamlet plays with Horatio and will not tell him what the ghost told him. Horatio asks Hamlet about the news he heard and Hamlet replies “O, wonderful!”(I.v.130). The news is actually not good news at all. Hamlet then sees the ghost in his mother’s chambers, but she can not see it. This is strange because earlier in the play Horatio and the other watchmen could see the ghost. When Hamlet starts a conversation w .....

.... such as birds. Immediately after Lady Macbeth reads her husband's letter about the witches' prophecies, a messenger comes with the news that King Duncan is coming to spend the night at her castle. After the messenger has left, the first thing Lady Macbeth says is: “The raven himself is hoarse/ That croaks fatal entrance of Duncan/ Under my battlements�(1.5.45-47). The raven is a bird of ill omen, and Lady Macbeth means that the raven is hoarse from saying again and again that King Duncan must die. Here, Shakespeare is taking the idea of murder, and using the natural imagery of a raven in order to reveal the th .....

.... I suppose you’re that girl from the brothel that I called for three months ago. I’d almost given up on you, baby.� Wendy quickly decided not to contradict the huge man. She figured that it’d be more interesting for her paper, if she let him think she was a prostitute. She could always run out, she reasoned. She nodded quickly, and he shifted in his recliner, sending vibrations resounding around the hovel. “Sweet thing, come closer so Herbie can see you, honey.� Wendy gulped uncomfortably and moved closer to the scourge, which was a bad idea. It was sickening, being this close. The scourge was wearing just a red sequined th .....

.... assumes is understandable but he can never get over the actual death of his father by still wearing black a year later, and the hasty marriage of his mother to Claudius. Compared to Horatio who is calm and cool throughout the play, and Fortinbras who collected an army to fight for his uncle’s land and honor, Hamlet’s maturity level for his time is low, especially for being a prince. Today Hamlet’s age group is more immature than during his own time so he relates to the youth of the 1990’s better than he does with the adolescents of his own time. Sarcasm, and blunt rudeness is often used by Hamlet in order to offend people that, .....

.... ends up being the cause of Willy’s destruction. Throughout the play, Linda suffers a great deal of stress from Willy’s feelings of disappointment. Willy’s impractical dreams have turned into a lifetime of frustrations. Disappointed and worried, Willy sometimes treats Linda cruelly or insensitively, but she understands the pain and fear behind his behavior, and forgives him in those moments. Willy is rude to Linda when he says, (page 65) “Will you let me talk? Don’t take his side all the time, goddammit!” When Biff responds to Willy’s discourteousness by furiously yelling at him, Linda sympathe .....

.... Moses both demonstrated individualism and leadership. This essay will discuss what makes Miriam and Moses individuals and leaders, what they went through, and how they did not give up through times of hardship. Moses considered himself a simple man, but to many people he was a leader and a determined individual. When God asked Moses to lead the Israelites out of Egypt, Moses was flattered, but at the same time apprehensive about speaking in public. Although he was afraid to speak to the Pharaoh to demand the Israelites be set free, he demonstrated his leadership skills by speaking with great confidence. He would not give in and continue to l .....

.... She shows her stubborness because she is unwilling to accept the fact that Creon and Ismêne won’t help bury her beloved brother. She becomes nasty and malicious because she is unable to forgive them. Antigone’s obstinacy also becomes very apparent in the prologue when Ismêne tried to talk the former out of burying Polyneicês because the former would be killed. Of course, as head strong as Antigone is, she wouldn’t be talked out of breaking the law that Creon passed. Even though Antigone knows the consequences, she buries her brother. She has done this because Antigone would rather die in honor than live a life of shame. This tragi .....

.... makes it look like he doesn’t need Lennie, but he does, to make him feel secure he needs Lennie. Anyway, where was I ? Oh that’s right, they go from place to place, to ranch to ranch, making a bit of money here and a bit of money there. Their one lifelong dream is to one day make enough money, to get a ranch of their own. So they one day come across a ranch where they plan to work, and work they do and this is where the story begins. They meet lots of people in this ranch, friends, nobodies and people they know they have to stay away from, in order to avoid harsh consequences, such as Curley and his wife, of whom I will talk about in .....

.... but in Hemingway’s novels, the physical portion of the image is hard to form. Both of the books also seemed to lack closure and resolution at the end. The endings left the reader to believe that none of the events that occurred during the story had any effect on the characters. In both books, the characters went on living as they always had. Even with all the similarities in the two novels, there was plenty of room left for differences. The setting was one noticeable difference. In The Sun Also Rises, the setting changed a lot. It moved from country to country, and from city to city. There were so many different places in the book that .....

.... nonsense, it wakes up the brain cells. Fantasy is a necessary ingredient in living, it's a way of looking at life through the wrong end of a telescope. Which is what I do, and that enables you to laugh at life's realities." -Dr. Seuss. Be able to enjoy a story is equally important to what is learned from it, and millions of people enjoy the stories of Seuss each day. Seuss helps the reading process along by making reading fun for children. He uses rhyming words, like in his book Fox in Sox. The line "When beetles fight these battles in a bottle with their paddles and the bottle’s on a poodle and the poodle’s eating noodl .....
