    I believe Troy’s dream is denied. Throughout the story, Troy mentions about his baseball dream. One of the few examples Troy gave is when Rose pleads for him to let Cory play and Troy said he didn’t want Cory to experience what he did with sports. What Troy mean is he doesn’t want Cory to waste his time on a hopeless dream like he did in baseball. I also noticed how Troy dislikes how the white folks treated and restricted his race.…

    By nature, every single person ever created was born with different views and ideas. There may be groups of people that agree on certain subjects and ideas, but not everyone is the same. From what someone automatically thinks of when they see a painting to how they interpret a work of poetry. The words, thoughts, and images that come to one's mind differ from the many other people in the world. ☆In the painting, Circe Pouring Poison Into a Vase and Awaiting the Arrival of Ulysses, Sir Edward Coley Burne Jones uses bright colors with conflicting actions, while in the poem “Circe’s Power”, Louise Glück uses the same scenes to show that people have different views and beliefs on situations which together represent the same theme that people are all different in the way that they view the world based on their different experiences in life.…

    Dreams, Hopes, and Plans Steinbeck seems dreams are foolish and unnecessary and only lead to more sorrow. No matter how much sometimes you dare to dream, send happy thoughts into the universe, no matter what you do some of your dreams will never come true and that's sad. It's not because of something you did or did not do; it's because of your condition. George and Lennie’s dream – to own a patch of land to call home – is so present in Of mice and men that it appears constantly. In fact, George telling the story is so often that it becomes a sort of routine for them; George telling he narrative and Lennie cuts in when he remembers the dream and he ends up finishing it for George.…

    During the mid-1900s, Christian faith, a central element in the United States’ culture, inspired both oppressors and supporters of the African-American struggle to attain equal rights.
