“Law is reason free from passion” Aristotle. He has been a philosopher I have build much of my life around, however I do not fall within his ethics as a lifestyle. I strive to ensure rules and regulations are followed strictly and precisely. I had lost much of my passion for life. I joined the United States Army at the age of 17, just months after September 11, 2011. My family tradition to uphold our great nation 's lifestyle was my only concern.

He turned a little sideways in his chair to drink his mug of coffee. At the table on his left the man with the strident voice was still talking remorselessly away. A young woman who was perhaps his secretary, and who was sitting with her back to Winston, was listening to him and seemed to be eagerly agreeing with everything that he said.
