quote shows how Jews will forever be displayed as an example for their immense strength and bravery. Anne Frank, along with the other survivors of the Holocaust, had some source of motivation to make it out of such a horrific event. In the memoir Night by Elie Wiesel and the film Life is Beautiful directed by Roberto Benigni, they show many examples of how in the worst circumstances, there was only one thing that gave people strength to keep going, family. Even in the darkest…

“I put my heart and soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.” This is one of many quotes made by Vincent Van Gogh, a famous artist from the 1800’s. He loved to paint, he believed painting and being an artist was his destiny; his calling. But sadly, he developed many mental and a few physical problems while fulfilling his destiny, thus why he lost his mind. But, he was not completely alone when these disorders happened, he had his brother, Theo, to help him. Theo encouraged…
“A tragedy is a tragedy, and at the bottom, all tragedies are stupid. Give me a choice and I'll take A Midsummer Night's Dream over Hamlet every time. Any fool with steady hands and a working set of lungs can build up a house of cards and then blow it down, but it takes a genius to make people laugh.” In comedy, the only characteristic shared between comedies is their want to make people laugh, and it can be difficult to pull off such a seemingly simple task. As defined by the New Oxford…
Did that grab your attention? Hey, my name is Kaden and I'm writing my Third or Forth autobiography for school. I'm in 7th grade and I love to watch sports. Truth is that I am a really nerdy guy and I love science, math, and Sci-Fi movies. I do like to watch sports, but it isn't on the top of my list, I'd usually watch YouTube or some science show on T.V. I'm really not that funny, I'm usually quiet and not talking, Don't get me wrong, I can be funny and energetic, I just tend to keep to…
Many skywatchers rate October as one of the year’s best observing months. The early sunsets mean that most of the summer’s stars linger in the west late into twilight. Waiting up only a few hours more brings many of winter’s best sights into view in the east, and it’s not too cold yet in the mid-northern latitudes. Even though the Autumn season is firmly in place, not all of the summer Milky Way has been lost. A short drive into the countryside away from city lights will reveal an impressive…
commit suicide (although this might be because I’m obsessed with his artwork and his tragic backstory ever since the Doctor Who episode). So whether it’s hanging in a museum, on a corkboard, or being used as an advertisement for beer, a piece of art can be used for any purpose, even ones made by “the masters.” Now mystification definitely plays a part in this because although there’s no doubt that Van Gogh was a great painter, are his paintings really worth $82 million? Or should I…
An artwork that was influenced by Japonism “Bridge in the rain: after Hiroshige” by Van Gogh is an oil on canvas painting that was created in 1887 in Paris, France. This painting was strongly inspired by the original woodblock print by the Japanese artist, Utagawa Hiroshige, in 1857. By comparing the two works, we can see that the colours Van Gogh are more intense which creates a contrast with the colours of the original print. To recreate the falling rain seen on the print, Van Gogh used a…
Wiesel's book Night highlights for us some of the consequences of being a bystander, instead of an upstander. Hitler was able to come into power because those who felt that what he stood for was wrong were watching what was happening to Germany without voicing their concerns. In chapter one of Night, Wiesel's friend who was shoved into a cattle cart and shipped away returns with bad news of how the Nazis killed all the Jews that were shipped away in cattle carts. Despite his attempt to convince…
