The Prince by Niccolo Machiavelli is a treatise that states many points. One of the points is “It is better to be feared than loved”. Macbeth by William Shakespeare is a play about ambition and tragedy. In chapters 14-17 of The Prince, Machiavelli describes how a ruler should act. In Macbeth, Shakespeare does the exact opposite of what Machiavelli is advising a ruler to do. Not following these theories would be the death of Macbeth. In Chapter 14, Machiavelli states that the easiest way to…

All Christians believe that Jesus died on the cross for the peoples’ sins, and that he suffered while he was taken to the Calvary. Through the time Christians have been reliving those moments. Each year a group of people comes up with a play, a demonstration of what happened to Jesus. Although it might not be perfectly portrayed, the group puts all the effort and time to give a good demonstration. It takes some weeks to get ready, practice, and memorize the dialogue.

At the beginning of junior year, I decided to pursue my love for public speaking by joining my school’s Mock Trial team. After successful performances at the Los Angeles Superior Court, I was awarded the Most Valuable Participant Award by the Constitutional Rights Foundation. Our team, however, did not move on to the second round. That was not a surprise, since only nine teams out of a hundred move on each year, and Clark Magnet’s team had never made it past the first round. For me, Mock Trial…

You’re right, it was called a crisscrossing action that we used. But after hundreds of attempts during the summer, I remember vividly in 1954 the first time Tuffy and I used it in our opening game. He fielded the punt and I had to close the distance between the two of us. His job was to keep the ball in front because when handing it off, or back to me, it was considered a lateral and not an illegal forward lateral. As we turned to cross, Tuffy’s BIG eyes told me he was undecided whether he…

Thankfully, these visits were only necessary every year or so. The old king was getting worse every time Barone Victor Wollstonecraft saw him. The Barone wistfully remembered when he would accompany his late father on these visits in his childhood and the king had been such a masterful teller of tales. Young Victor would spend the entire journey back to Castle Godwin replaying in his imagination the stories he had heard while in the capitol. Today his majesty could scarcely utter three…

First I read chapter 5 of The Prince is all about how to govern states that are following their own rules. I disagree with how Machiavelli says to deal with them. One way that Machiavelli said was to devastate the states and I don't think that is the right way to go. If you devastate the state they might start listening and following you but they might also use the devastation you put on them to slowly start turning more and more states away from you causing you to lose your rein over the states…
