One of my most favored metaphors and quotes I have ever come across would be this one. Showing how wits always win over brawn, thinking is dangerous to those around you, but it can also be dangerous for yourself. Celaena, the main protagonist of Throne of Glass realizes that thought is a dangerous weapon to possess, towards those against you, but can be dangerous for yourself if someone of greater authority feels as though this is a threat.

Should authoritative books be censored in libraries? Some books can be offensive, but books are the key knowledge. Books like, Night by Elie wiesel, and To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee, are books that are hard to read, but are a reminder of history that we should never forget about.

If you want to save one hundred and twelve minutes of your life and overpriced movie ticket, go onto your laptop and watch the trailer of Fahrenheit 451. In my opinion, it is a lot more exciting than the movie itself. This movie is one of the most pretentious movies I have ever seen. Although there are many aspects of the novel “Fahrenheit 451” which are very significant, Francois depiction of how the events where portrayed in the movie, weakens the message Bradbury was depicting in the novel.…
