    that the girl does not want performed. I think this is the best example of propaganda ever written to convince educated people that there is absolutely nothing wrong with abortion. When writing propaganda for the educated you can’t just state why one thing is all bad and another is all good you have to let them figure it out for themselves. It is not killing it is just according to Hemmingway, “It’s just to let the air in” (636). It is so simple just let air in and the blood, brain, and heart…

    at the time thing here was to get much worse, Harry saw the Overseer coming and stopped talking and saluted her. When I turned around I saw old blue eyes herself also I saw that she was coming towards us. This was not the thing that made me nervous, it was the fact that the person who was leading them was the Executioner James Franklin himself. He was leading them toward us with a big band of soldiers, with the large group of very importent people. He did not look very happy, he said as he…

    High school is a curious place, from what I 've learned these past two years. I 've done some things that I 'm rather proud of. I 've made mistakes. I learned more than I could have imagined. Yet, somehow I 'm still unsatisfied. Teenage boys are a species of their own. Normally, I 'd prefer to not talk about them. I find the majority to be especially ignorant, rude, unaware, stupid, and horny. Sometimes you think you 've found one that defies the odds, however you eventually discover the…

    Emotions are what gives your life color. Memories are what give you feelings. Although being able to have feelings might make you enjoy life more, it can also make things really hard on yourself. In The Giver, Jonas doesn’t start to feel anything until he starts to receive memories from the current Receiver. In this essay I get to talk about three themes, which are Individuality, Memories, and Emotions. I think that these are the most important themes of this story and are the main reasons…

    what it’s about because I read it, but, the thing is, I never read any of it. I only lied because that was the only way for them to get me more books. When I was young, whenever I looked at a book, I only saw lines with random letters. Every book I had would translate into saying, “BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!” I guess you can say that 's what it sounded like when I first started to read. You can…

    She decided not to. “Took you long enough. Where were you? Havin’ a shot with the old judge, or what was left of him once I left him dried up and spent?” Sam didn’t laugh. He stood there like an erect corpse. This wasn’t the feared downtown barrister, wordless, a strain in his eyes reminiscent of the old days of a near- gone and soul-lost man. Sweet Mary didn’t break the silence. She let quiet do what it did and come back to her. Listening to its mes- sage was a skill she’d learned from the old…

    Although a lot of stories may differ in a lot of ways, the key components always stay the same. A writer must have a good set of characters, a good plot, a good theme, and all the things of that nature. Every person may have a different idea of what makes a particular story “interesting” to them, and keeps them wanting to go back and read the story more and more.

    anything as his punishment, rather he lost his life in battle with Macduff. Adam and Eve were aware of their consequence from the beginning. They were forced to leave Eden and find their own place to stay along with many other consequences that are said to still affect mankind today. Milton describes the scene of them leaving the garden very vividly by writing, “They looking back, all th’ eastern side beheld of Paradise, so late their happy seat, waved over by that flaming brand, the gate with…
