.... the progress of the Black people. These are the days during which he is still a hopeful scholar, defining himself as a "potential Booker T. Washington." At this point he is living the life that others have told him that he should live, and defines himself as he believes he is seen through their eyes, as an icon of what a Black person can achieve when they put their minds to it, and as a role model for his people. The abuse and degradation which he is put through in the battle royal give him the first inklings that everything is not as it seems, but fail to do anything to change the narrator's perceptions of himself. It is quite p .....

.... but to deal with Emily. When the town started to change Emily refused to do so and it was apparent that the town saw her house as “an eyesore among eyesores”(414). The town was very interested in her relationship with Homer Barron a foreman that was working on the contract for paving the sidewalks in the town. They were pleased at first but later they kind of had mixed feelings saying that she as “a Grierson would not think seriously of a Northerner, a day laborer”(417). Emily is the antagonist in the story, she is stuck in time, she absolutely refuses to change despite the fact that society was chan .....

.... by Maria’s and Little Chandler’s very childlike appearances and mannerisms. Maria is described as a “very, very small person” (Clay, pg. 87) as Little Chandler “gave one the idea of being a little man.” (Cloud, pg. 60) Little Chandler’s “frame was fragile...his voice was quiet...his hands were white and small” (Cloud, pg. 60) and he had a row of “childish white teeth” (Cloud, pg. 60) also giving him an adolescent appearance. One also receives the impression of Little Chandler’s childlike inadequacy as he enters the bar in which he meets Gallaher. “ .....

.... but a blockheaded nigger would have known he was funning and left him [Tom] alone” (23). Furthermore, after Tom had gone to college (Yale) and returned back to Dawson’s Landing, he still carried this trait. This was evident when he was having a conversation with . At the time, Mr. Wilson was hosting guests, two of which were from out-of-town. Regardless of the obvious company, Tom kept his rude manor and made fun of Wilson’s law career. Although it was true that ’s law career was all but successful, Tom had no right to embarrass him so, especially in front of guests. Not only was Tom Driscoll rude in the way he car .....

.... their farm. The men are always picking on Crooks and Curley's wife threatens to have him hung all the time. The boss is always taking his anger out on him. Curley's wife is young, beautiful and very lonely. She is the only female on the ranch and she teases the men to amuse herself. Her husband considers her nothing more than an object. Her dreams were one day to become an actress; instead she manied Curley because she had no way to support herself. I believe the most important character in the book Of Mice and Men is George Milton. He took the responsibility upon himself to look after Lennie and that in itself is a job. George is .....

.... be one of those ex-weight lifters, that had been on steroids for most of their adult life. Her neck was bigger than that of football players, and her arms resembled those of the body builders sometimes on ESPN. Her gut brought thoughts of the worlds strongest man competition to mind. She was big, and no one, not even Superman, or Batman could get away with messing with her. To us she might as well have been dressed in some military uniform, carrying a leather riding-crop. The fear kept us in line most of the time. She strode right up to Patrick, and halted just short of him. Not a word was exchanged for a full minute, the two just .....

.... all. By the end of the book, all this no longer existed. The animals were getting less sleep, less food, and less respect. The windmill became a source of money for the leaders, not for all the animals. The seven commandments were gradually changed to suit the pigs and then there was only one Commandment left. “‘Are the Seven Commandments the same as they used to be, Benjamin?’ There was nothing now except for a single Commandment. It ran: All animals are equal but some are more equal than others”(133). That single commandment made the pigs more powerful. Animalism no longer existed. At the beginning of the story, there we .....

It is about the acceptance and understanding that .....

.... One can have perfect freedom as long as one does not disturb others in their state of nature; in this “state of perfect equality ... there is no superiority or jurisdiction of one over another” (124). Men, thereby, have the power to “preserve the innocent and restrain offenders” (124) and punish those who transgress against them and disturb their “state of nature.” Thus, all men are their own “executioner[s] in the law of nature,” or the Law of Reason. While all men are in charge of their own will according to the Law of Reason in which they are born, some men do, in fact, break or reject this law, which caus .....
