Words: 465 - Pages: 2.... Soon you are tempted to smother the snorer with your pillow for a moment of si-lence, half-caring if they survive the encounter.
Secondly, it is almost impossible to convince a snorer that they, in fact, snore. Nothing short of taped evidence is enough to convince them, and in some cases it's not. It almost appears that snorer's have a genetic trait to deny their snoring. A comparison of their sleeping habit to a forest being clear-cut is always taken too personally. Your heroic suppression of your desire to smother the snorer's sleeping form is never taken with the deserved appreciation. The frustration is enough to grab your pillow and sm .....

Since Don Quixote had read about this particular knight, he justifies it to himself that he too could also tear a limb from a tree and uses it as a makeshift lance. When Sancho asks if Don Quixote had any pain, he replies, “I do not complain of the pain…because a knight errant is not allowed to complain of any wounds”(69-70). Again, Don Quixote is going by a set of rules of chivalry that he obtained from his reading. At night, Don Quixote refuses to sleep “but thought about his Lady Dulcinea, to conform to what he had read in his books about knight errants spending many sleeple .....

Words: 632 - Pages: 3.... David does not say he has not wanted, but that he is not in want. The New Testament calls Jesus the good shepherd. There Jesus says, "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep" (John 10:11).
