.... creates a sense of freedom and flexibility. The woman in the poem, presumably Amy, wishes to be like the moving flowers, carefree and jaunty. In the second stanza of the poem, the woman begins to describe the water in the marble fountain. The, “…plashing of waterdrops,” (28) and, “…plopping of the waterdrops,” (54) describe liquid in motion. The fact that she notices such little details in a fountain shows how intent the woman is on being free and able to move about as she pleases. The unconstrained movement of the flowers and the water manifest a way of life that the woman would like to live. .....

.... from it, and millions of people enjoy the stories of Seuss each day. Seuss helps the reading process along by making reading fun for children. He uses rhyming words, like in his book Fox in Sox. The line "When beetles fight these battles in a bottle with their paddles and the bottle’s on a poodle and the poodle’s eating noodles..." makes reading slightly easier for young readers by repeating words as well as using words that are similar to each other giving children an advantage when learning to read. Ever since before I could read, my favorite book was Green Eggs and Ham, and I’m sure that what drew m .....

.... not hesitate to ask for help from the princess Medea. Odysseus accepted help from a simple sheep herder in order to reclaim his home. Although these two heroes had similar adventures and shared similar qualities, they were very different. The first difference we notice between these two heroes is their lineage. Like most Greek heroes, Jason was a direct descendant of the gods. Odysseus on the other hand was not. He was a member of the Royal House of Athens and not divine as were many of his peers and relatives. Odysseus was also more compassionate than Jason. Jason used people to his own end and then disregarded them. A .....

.... have been the lone romantic who gave up everything for sex” shows that she was not an immoral woman but someone who was forced into having sex. She could not let anyone know what was happening with her. She had no one to listen to her and understand her misery. She did not have anyone to rescue her out of the fateful situation. Her own family treated her as an “outcast”. They made her, the wrongdoer, be left alone. They considered her an offender when she was not to blame. The villagers had thrown eggs, mud and rocks at her house. “The villagers punished her for acting like she could have a private life, secret and apart .....

.... had no mental illness. Doctors can cause or hastened death without the patient's request. This can be seen in the Netherlands were a 30 year-old man who was H.I.V.-positive, but had no symptoms and may not develop them for years, was helped to die. Probably the doctors didn't explain that even if he had a terminal disease he could enjoy the rest of his life with his family and friend that were about to lose him. Doctors aren't trained to do this in medical school and the public doesn't know better. This is because doctors aren' t trained properly in the relief of pain and discomfort in terminally ill patients. And time should .....

.... for Karl in his heart , but also claimed a belief in forgiveness without forgetting. The Dalai Lama then equated the struggle of the Jews with the Tibetan Peoples’ struggle to regain freedom from their Chinese oppressors. This author found the Dalai Lama’s story of a Tibetan Monk who served nearly eighteen years in a Chinese prison to be fascinating. After the monk’s escape to India he was asked what his biggest fear in prison had been. The monk replied he most feared losing his compassion for the Chinese. This tale is one of forgiveness and redemption that may be beyond the scope of the average hum .....

.... him (106). This is something many people can identify with as many have experienced a hatred for a physical characteristic on someone they know. Just as the character did not understand the hatred but just saw this body part, far out of the control of the old man, as something to be vanquished. The simple emotions of fear and hatred put forth to the reader come through clearly Poe’s writing technique. In the Black Cat, Poe’s mechanism for the reader becoming intimate with the protagonist is the use of an alcohol driven rage. Many readers now and in Poe’s life time would have understood and could visualize the .....

.... respect, her act is that of love for her children. The selfishness of Sethe's act lies in her refusal to accept personal responsibility for her baby's death. Sethe's motivation is dichotomous in that she displays her love by mercifully sparing her daughter from a horrific life, yet Sethe refuses to acknowledge that her show of mercy is also murder. Throughout , Sethe's character consistently displays the duplistic nature of her actions. Not long after Sethe's reunion with Paul D. she describes her reaction to School Teacher's arrival: "Oh, no. I wasn't going back there[Sweet Home]. I went to jail instead"(Morrison 42). Sethe's wo .....

.... widespread destruction to thousands. Donne also uses the image of despair and depression. In the second stanza, he says “Ah, what a trifle is a heart, if once into love’s hands it come!” In these lines Donne gives us the image of a hand of love and a big heart touching it. Once the heart touches the hand, it begins to shrink because love has devoured it. Also by saying this, Donne realizes that his heart became little and has no value to him. He loved his girl, but she didn’t return that love, so, his heart shrunk and now means nothing to him. Donne also gives us the image of love swallowing his hear .....
