Mistakes were made

Imagine being killed for a crime you did not commit. Unjust people out of fear, shame, or pride will perpetuate and defend their mistakes. The Crucible written by Arthur Miller takes place during the Salem Witch Trials. Abigail Williams, a very naughty teen, is caught with her friends dancing naked in the woods during the nighttime. These acts are considered signs of witchcraft. The group of girls starts pointing fingers around the town saying that many people are witches to defend their…

". One last thought that you may think about is, "How can I build up from my mistake or failure and fix it?". One thought that may come to mind is," How can I use my failure as a learning opportunity?". This is a really good thought that should come to mind. If it doesn't, that's okay. It is a good thought to think about, though. All failures and mistakes can be used as a learning opportunity. Because of the mistake or failure, you know what not to do.

In the passage, The Cicones, a meaningful mistake is made by Odysseus and his men. This is shown when the text says, ¨My men were mutinous, fools, on stores of wine-- while fugitives went inland, running to call to arms the main force of Cicones.¨ (9) In this encounter, one may learn from Odysseus and his mistakes in that you should not give up because you feel you…

constant was that the Egyptian people were ruled by pharaohs. I am going to focus on the extent to which the pharaohs caused the collapse of the Egyptian Empire. For example the poor decisions made by the pharaohs, to establish if the decisions made were the main cause of the collapse. I will then review other factors such as religion, climate change, famine and technology to assess their contribution to the collapse. Throughout Egyptian history pharaohs were significant figures influencing…

Many theologians argued that fairies were evil beings, who caused mischief upon the world (Karim-Cooper). However, in Shakespeare’s imagining, most fairies are civil and courteous, barely interacting with the human world unless it is for a good reason.
