.... The ward is run by her to a very strict daily routine, which is almost fanatically neurotic in it’s precision and dedication. Chief describes Big Nurse’s devotion to her daily routine: ‘The slightest thing messy or out of kilter in any way ties her into a little white knot of tight-smiled fury’ (27) When McMurphy enters the ward, the delicate equilibrium which the nurse has created is upset. This is because, like the nurse, McMurphy is a natural leader-figure. He takes over the control of the ward by manipulating the patients; seemingly for their own good, but it may be argued that he .....

.... and we knew that with nothing left, she would have to cling to that which had robbed her, as people will” (279). Her father robs her from many of life's necessities. She misses out on having friends, being a normal “woman,” and her ability to be happy. Emily is not able to live a normal life which she indirectly blames on her father. Emily is so used to having her father be there for her, she figures that by keeping his body he can still be part of her life. The Jungian archetype of this feminist struggle can be noted as: Emily is not able to live a normal life because her father keeps under his thumb. In relatio .....

.... in the novel. At the beginning of the story and a large part of the novel, Sydney Carton is shown to be a very arrogant, frustrated man with a drinking problem. Several times in the novel he indulged in his drinking to the point of becoming drunk or close to it. Many times that he is seen, he is drinking wine or has a flask of liquor in his hand. This may keep him calm or help him to remain composed in the court, but it becomes more to the point of being a necessity or habit. Also, his drinking causes him to be loose with his tongue when he is with Charles Darnay after the trial, which makes Charles angry with hi .....

.... stretching away across the unseen floors, lay countless piles of precious things, gold wrought and unwrought, gems and jewels, and silver red-stained in the ruby light. (The Hobbit pg.206)” This sounds comparable to a “kings ransom. For some reason people, when they see the dragons treasure, have an uncontrollable urge to steal some of it. “The wretch was terrified! /Yet still he reached out for more disaster/ and clutched the cup (230,231)” An interesting parallel is also that it is a cup stolen in each story. “He grasped a great two-handed cup, as heavy as he could carry, cast one fearful eye upwa .....

.... club’ and the Mennonites enjoyed seeing a Black man’s freedom taken away from him. Tom Robinson was found guilty of raping Mayella Ewell, in the face of very strong evidence that his accusers were lying. One reason why he was convicted was because it was a white man’s word against a black man’s one. Tom, who is black, would be denied justice because of this. Atticus reinforces this idea when he tells Jem ‘in our courts, when it’s a white man’s word against a black man’s, the white man always wins.’ Generally this was the mentality of most Americans at the time. In Maycomb a white man’s word was alwa .....

.... At the start of Chapter V, Gulliver travels to the Academy of Lagado so that he may examine and learn more about the society. He properly describes to the reader their inventions, experiments, and the scientists. In the movie, however, Gulliver goes to the Academy in a frantic search for someone who has heard of England. His interest is clearly not in the happenings of the building; rather he is there for purely selfish reasons. During this search, Gulliver accosts a man who instructs him to go to the Room of Answers to find out how to get back to England. After going into various other rooms, Gulliver finally stumbles up .....

.... at all. So easily might men get the necessities of life if that cursed money, which is supposed to provide access to them, were not in fact the chief barrier to our getting what we need to live. Even the rich, I'm sure, understand this. They must know that it's better to have enough of what we really need than an abundance of superfluities, much better to escape from our many present troubles than to be burdened with great masses of wealth. And in fact I have no doubt that every man's perception of where his true interest lies, along with with the authority of Christ our Saviour..... would long ago have brought the whole .....

.... Loman is looking for an easy way to become rich and successful. Conventionally the American dream meant freedom and prosperity for everyone and Willy is a firm believer of this. But working hard could not get him everything that he wanted or thought he deserved. He seems to measure himself as well as others by the material things they own. Unable to live his American dream in this consumer-based culture, he has a longing for things that he can not afford nor does he really need. He thinks he should buy new stockings for his wife and a new refrigerator although she is happy with what they have. In his striving to get a hold .....

.... the biggest difference and the strangest is how Guy’s wife Mildred and the rest o f the country related to them as their “family.” Also how all the characters in the books could interact with the televisions by being in plays or shows. The TV could quite possibly be a way for Mildred to try to escape her unhappiness and reality, rather than dealing with her husband she would rather give her attention to her “relatives.” Television is a very big part of U.S. culture but not quite in the way that Bradbury portrayed it to be. Furthermore, a very significant prediction was the “firemen” as they were called. Thes .....

.... ruler. At that moment, Rousseau interrupts by saying that the general will, while representing the people, must be controlled by the state in order to ensure that the needs of all the people are met. Deciding to take turns speaking to allow for a proper debate, Voltaire begins. Voltaire strived to find good men in a good society, and thought that there was a strong relation between a government and the welfare of its people. He attacked those who used prejudice, superstition, intolerance, and injustice and looked for leaders who would rule by reason and justice instead. In his opinion, a leader must give the individual man hi .....
