Without them, how would we grow and learn? How would we truly savour the taste of victory? This is the first a series of articles for coaches and players/athletes, regardless of the sport you play or the level you play at, on…

arrogant personality. By the narrator's tone, which is disappointment, we can tell that Clarence’s character is not something to be proud of or accept. In the beginning of the passage, the narrator says, “ Clarence Hervey might have been more than a pleasant young man, if he had not been smitten with the desire of being thought superior in every thing…” This part of the passage introduces the beginning of Clarence’s arrogance and the disappointment of the narrator by it.

4). Guthrie uses imagery such as “endless skyway,” “golden valley,” and “diamond deserts” to give the reader a beautiful joyful image of what there is awaiting in the journey (Guthrie 6, 7, 10).

When I think about Quentin Tarantino I think about Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Django Unchained, Kill Bill, Inglorious Bastards—all amazing films worth recognizing. I feel like Quentin Tarantino has talent; he’s gifted and knows how to put a film together for the enjoyment of the audience. ‘The Hateful Eight’ has an amazing cast with Samuel L.

In the letter, Johnson says, “Hope is itself a species of happiness, and, like all other pleasures immoderately enjoyed, the excesses of hope must be expiated by pain; and expectations improperly indulged, must end in disappointment.” In the quote said by him, he talks about hope being itself a “species of happiness” and like all happiness, it…
