Many of the senators reminded other senators about the rules the senate has and one senator reminded the people he was concerned about their well-being. Overall, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was passed, but there were many flaws in the…

Philosophical Journal #2 Chapter four is about Egoism, Altruism, and the Social Contract. Egoism is defined as someone who is primarily concerned with their own well-being. There are two kinds of Egoism, Descriptive Egoism and Psychological Egoism. Descriptive Egoism holds that people are basically self-centered or selfish; that is, people primarily pursue their own self-interest. This is true at birth, we are all born as a self-centered baby.

In order for perseverance to be a virtue it must be concerned with behavior that produces something good. Perseverance is concerned with actions that aim at achieving success. A person is thought to be perseverant if their actions reflect hard-work, resiliency, and dedication in the face of adversity. If a person produces actions with energy and commitment they are hard-working, not perseverant. A perseverant person’s actions are concerned with the goal of achieving success. The goal must be…

Although the Ministry of Truth “concerned itself with news, entertainment, education, and the fine arts” (Orwell 8), they actually destroyed documents from the past to make it fit what the future is saying.

Additionally, Hector is concerned with his kleos, which can be seen just prior to his death when he begs for Achilles to “give [his] body to friends to carry home again so Trojan men and…

see it in The Crucible and the McCarthy Hearings, we see it in daily life. In my opinion, Reverend Parris is the most power-driven character in Arthur Miller’s The Crucible because he disregards the well-being of his own blood because he is more concerned about his name and reputation in Salem, which I also believe is truly evil.
