.... and banal writers start their essays with long, tedious descriptions of the point they are trying to convey. But like all great writers and thinkers, Thoreau begins his essay with a strong, captivating sentence: "That government is best which governs least" (222). Thoreau's opening line grabs and lets the reader know what topic(s) the essay will be discussing. As it turns out, this opening sentence is the basis for the rest of his essay as he encourages individuals to take responsibility for keeping the government in constant check. He believes that the best way for a country and its people to survive is if individuals are .....

.... care what others thought, like when Finny wore a pink shirt as an emblem after the bombing of central Europe. " '...Pink! It makes you look like a fairy!' 'Does it?' He used this preoccupied tone when he was thinking of something more interesting than what you had said." One time Finny and Gene were at the swimming pool when Finny noticed that a boy named A. Hopkins Parker had the record for the 100 yards free style. When Finny realized that A. Hopkins Parker had graduated before they came, he remarked, "I have a feeling I can swim faster than A. Hopkins Parker." He was right. Gene was ecstatic that Finny could do such a t .....

.... does not know if she can trust Msimangu and Kumalo. This constant apprehension causes people to act in ways that they normally would not. It is this same panic that caused Absolom Kumalo to shoot Arthur Jarvis. Absolom, being a criminal, had reason to fear authority figures; and because Arthur was white, Absolom automatically associated him with supremacy and command. “‘I told them I was frightened when the white man came. So I shot him. I did not mean to kill him.’”(Pg. 98) When so many white people are being killed by blacks, it can only increase the fear felt by both races: blacks because they do not wish to procure any .....

.... got myself killed doing it, if you want to know the truth - and went in this stationary store and bought a pad and pencil." Holden Caulfield creates a thought provoking point of view. On the surface many of his thought patterns seem unrelated and often straying from the topic. His association of topic with digression is used constantly throughout the novel. However, realizing that these digressions are very relevant and even crucial to the topic allow the reader to gain true insight to the character. His statement’s about his sister's intelligence, which is followed by explanations of how well she listens, reveals Holden's .....

.... as an excuse to remain comfortable in his undisturbed universe. By opening the fourth stanza with: "And indeed there will be time," Eliot echoes the memorable line: "Had we but world enough and time' from Andrew Marvell's seductive poem, "To His Coy Mistress." Ironically, Prufrock does not feel compelled to seize the day(Pagnattaro 108). Prufrock repeats his conviction that "indeed there will be time" to wonder "‘Do I dare?' and ‘Do I dare?'"-that is, first, does he dare express his true feelings to the woman he adores, and if not, does he dare to flee down the stares after he rang the doorbell, knowing that the sub .....

.... much smaller than Dr. Jekyll. I believe Dr. Jekyll created Hyde because he had a theory that man has a good side and a bad side. While investigating this, he developed a potion that could release the evil in a person in the form of a totally different person. Then this person could commit any evil act it wanted, and then drink the potion to return back to normal. The only problem with this is the fact that he drank this potion so many times, he was no longer able to control this process. He was unable to transform back into Dr. Jekyll. Another example of Hyde's evil is in the killing of Sir Danvers Carew. Sir Danvers appears to .....

.... stories attempt to challenge the idealistic glory of war and realistically unmask the unavoidable devastation, suffering and death, each author adopts a distinctive literary approach. In "War Prayer", Mark Twain appeals to the moral and religious conscience of the nation, urging the populace to look deeply into the devastation of war. Twain uses a religious congregation to portray the idealistic populace. The congregation expounds on the doctrine of Manifest Destiny and the resulting imperialist philosophy that the United States' expansion of territory and influence is God ordained. To this end, the gathering seeks the favor .....

.... have time to do supervisory functions. (p. 30) If they are busy doing everyone else's work who is going to do theirs. Once the supervisor puts the work back on the workers it belongs to she needs to make sure everything is going according to plan. This can be accomplished by following the 4 "Rules of Monkey Management." (p. 59) Make sure that the "next moves" are set before you let the subordinate go with a project. If my supervisor gave me a project to work on and I just left her office without agreeing on what to do, I would just sit in my office and waste time wondering what to do first. If my supervisor and I agree on what .....
