.... her sweetheart deserted her, she needed to be secure that no one else would leave and abandon her. So her motivation, I think, for killing Homer Barren (H.B.) was to keep him with her forever. I saw some foreshadowing of death when she went to buy the arsenic. This hinted that somebody was going to die but we did not know who. I thought, just as the others thought,that she would kill herself but it ended up that she killed H.B. and she died of natural causes at the age of seventy-four. I think, the story was titled "A Rose for Emily" because at the end of the story it describes the room furnished for a bridal in rose color and rose is a .....

.... clear. Through the mind of a twelve-year old boy chosen to recieve the memories of a lost world for the sake of the "happiness" of the rest of his perfect society, we learn that perfection comes at a steep price. The people in this story lost the ability to see color, to smell, or hear music. All in order to keep peace and avoid conflict. After dinner, families are forced to discuss their feeling with another and not allowed to keep any secrets. But this boy, Jonas, realizes just how shallow these people are. They claim anger, but have never felt the blood-boiling rage of a fatal injustice. They profess sorrow, but have never lost an .....

.... replies Sean nonchalantly. Suitably named Angel, she is Sean’s inspiration and comforter. She has devoted her entire life to her two kids, Sean and Sean’s older brother, Frank. Aside from inspiring and comforting Sean, Angel also motivates him by preaching to him that education is the means to a successful life. Sean positions his burdensome backpack next to his bed and lies down for a moment to clear his head before starting homework. “How am I going to get through next week,� thinks Sean, “school alone puts enough stress upon every student’s shoulder, why do they have to test us at the end of each semester? .....

.... I am living and experiencing my own carpe diem philosophy. Now I am experiencing my golden chance of having a great education, and I have to make good use of the experience. The opportunity to come United States to study is very limited for Spanish students. It is limited because even when the country is not a third world country, Spain is a country not very rich, and for a person like my it would be not very intelligent to reject this great chance.

.... to know, for instance, “How many inhabitants has Melbourne?”, they have to know how to light a cigarette in pouring rain. On page 263, Paul comments, “I am young, I am twenty years old; yet I know nothing of life but despair, death, fear, and fatuous superficiality cast over an abyss of sorrow.” This sums up his entire disposition towards himself at the end of the novel. He was taken into the army, willfully, but still taken, in the prime of his youth, to a place where death and destruction were facts of life. Remarque depicts a transition in the value systems of Paul and his comrades. Kemmerich’s boots, symb .....

.... Thane, describes what a significant officer Macbeth is for his kingdom: "The king hath happily received, Macbeth, The news of thy success; and when he reads Thy personal venture in the rebel’s fight, His wonders and his praises do contend Which should be thine or his. Silenced with that, In viewing o’er the rest o’th’ selfsame day, He finds thee in the stout Norweyan ranks, Nothing afeard of what thyself didst make, Strange images of death. As thick as hail Came post with post, and every one did bear Thy praises in his kingdom’s great defence, And poured then down before him." [I.iii.89-99]. Macbeth, like any other man, had .....

.... These great point of views continued to stay with him for the rest of his life. It impacted him time and time again. He was extremely confident in himself. This allowed him to run for president of his class in school. Ernesto’s attempts to succeed with his goals in his Barrio make it evident that the quote is correct. Esperanza’s life on Mango Street sustains the message captured by the critical lens. Esperenza and many other characters in this short novel are determined to escape Mango Street.

.... because of action scenes, plot, and settings. In the 90's and perhaps for many years past the new millenium action is a four-letter word, Bond. James Bond symbolizes everything a modern man wants to be, handsome, with action in is life, and always getting the girl. It is the action scenes, which make Bond enjoyed by all. The action scenes are the major reason why the movie is more action packed then the book. From the opening shots of the movie there is action. Strangways another agent of the British Secret Service leaves the Queens Club and is shot by three blind black beggars. In the book, they are three blind Chigroes-Chinese Negro .....
