.... the same time Europeans were discovering other parts of the world and exploiting and killing the inhabitants of these lands. Chief Dan George writes about an age where everything was innocent and beautiful. Where his people looked for guidance to spirits, we now rely on computers and experts, psychologists and politicians to lead us through our daily lives. They took care of nature the way it took care of them, giving back what they took. Then the Europeans ‘Like a crushing wave’ came and used and abused this splendor, all in the name of progress. They pushed away the people who lived and worked these lands, ignorantly .....

.... endings, which are consistent to those in real life, interpretive literature achieves a higher literary value than escape literature. Interpretive literature allows its reader too step out of the fantasy world they might be living in and focus on what the world is really about. One might say an interpretive story provides insight to understanding. Not only understanding of ourselves, but our neighbors, friends, family or anyone else we might encounter. Escape literature is the complete opposite of interpretive literature. Escape literature is written purely for entertainment. Escape literature takes it’s reader out of .....

.... start in the early stages of his career, but by the 1870’s Renoir had already received success as a portraitist. In 1881 he was freed from his financial problems as an art dealer named Paul Durand- Ruel began buying his work on a regular basis. By this time Renoir’s style had changed dramatically. He used a crisper and drier style with duller coloring, opposed to his earlier works using light and fresh colors. In the mid 1880’s Renoir thought that he should take his art more seriously. In this time period he concentrated on nudes and sometimes young girls in unknown settings. As time went on Renoir’s pa .....

When Banquo states "and question this most bloody piece of work,” and Ross says "isn’t known who did this more than bloody deed?” they are both inquiring as to who .....

.... thought ……. // Shakes so my single state of man." The second soliloquy is in Act I, Scene IV, when the Thane of Cawdor has been killed. Duncan describes him as ‘a man on whom I built an absolute trust’. This parallels Macbeth, who he trusts, when he betrays him. Duncan pronounces his son as the prince of Cumberland and the heir to the throne. This throws Macbeth’s mind into even more confusion, as this is a ‘step which (he) must o’er-leap. He also, in the soliloquy, knows that his thoughts are evil, and he does not want good to see them. "Stars, hide your fires, // Let not light see my black and .....

.... The strong are forced to wear bags filled with lead balls; beautiful people are forced to wear masks so others would not feel unequal to them in looks. The overly intelligent are forced to wear radio transmitters in their ears, which are tuned to a government station that constantly bombards them with horrible sounds to scramble their thoughts. In the movie, the year is 2053 and everyone is forced to wear mind-altering headbands that rest on their temples. These headbands electronically modify intelligence, effectively decreasing everyone’s IQ to the desired "average" point. Unlike the story, in the movie, no on .....
