Before these first two speeches, the reader knows little about who Aeneas is. His characteristics as a person and a leader are unclear, so it is natural that the reader would pay attention to the first thing this character…

simply because Kanye West is conceited it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t have any redeeming qualities. Mr. West is an extremely hard worker. He was raised in a lower middle class household in Chicago and began pursuing his passion of rapping in the 3rd grade. Later, he dropped out of college and even though multiple record labels rejected him, he continued to pursue a career in music. Finally, in 2004 he released his first album, appropriately titled “The College Dropout.” Kanye West is a true…

The wall fell on this chilly evening and the torch of democracy had never shone so bright. All the while West Germans greeted East Germans face to face after almost 30 years of separation.
