In the novel, Finney comes back to school so certain of himself “with such health,” he keeps doing things he shouldn’t be doing, which makes him believe he is still eligible to participate in the war (Knowles 104). Just like Finney, Neil in the movie is so sure and proud of himself for preforming in the play that he uses one of his soliloquies to direct an apology towards his dad; this makes his dad even madder (Dead Poets’ Society). Since Neil and Finney are both courageous and “most innocent of all” the characters, it’s harder to face the reality that’s in front of them, like how Neil can’t comprehend his dads firm answer, and how Finney won’t believe he is actually cripples (Telgen). Furthermore, Finney, who is brave, suggests jumping off the tree with Gene. Although Gene almost falls off, Finney catches him and saves Gene’s life, but he “practically lost it” too (Knowles 33).
Trying to see things in someone elses eyes is hard to do and often people don’t even think twice about doing it. The world is full of many different people some of which are much different than others, but they don’t deserve judgment. Scout and Jem both learned at a young age to show human compassion towards other people, something that not many people do. They learn from their father on how to step back and see things differently then others. Judgment wouldn’t occur as often if you
“No, everybody’s gotta learn, nobody’s born knowin’. That Walter’s as smart as he can be, he just gets held back sometimes because he has to stay out and help his daddy. Nothin’s wrong with him. Naw, Jem, I think there’s just one kind of folks. Folks” (Lee 304).
I really liked The Bread Winner because of the inspiring and risky chances that Parvana took. Dressing as a boy, and digging up bones for the sake of her family is very brave. It makes me remember how lucky I am to live in a free country where I don’t have to change gender to go outside alone. Even though I enjoyed it, I cannot relate to the story at all. Parvana and her family live in a one room house, while my family and I live in a large house with indoor plumbing and electricity.
Even on his last day of school, all Montressor could think of was being able to live freely without the daily worry of running into Fortunato. Little did he know that just because school was over, Fortunato was not out of his life entirely. My father was never an endearing person; especially not after my mother left. My mother was perfect in my eyes with only one mistake as far as I could tell, leaving. Maybe she did not want me or maybe she just did not want the life of a mother, I will never know for sure.

Cash was born at a time when his mother had just discovered that words are meaningless and that only through acts can people achieve an awareness of life. Thus, Cash seldom speaks in the novel and usually only after some action is performed. Furthermore, he seems to be concerned with only one act at a time. Thus, he is the natural choice for the building of the coffin because he, like Addie, knows that the finished product is more important than the words
Stephenie Stevenson Christine Warrington ENG 202 NA 5 November 2013 The story Metamorphosis, demonstrates how we allow every day life to over take us to the point that we change into something that we are unable to identify. Gregror did everything for everyone, but nothing for himself. He didn’t enjoy life because he was too busy working at a job that he hated in order to pay off his parents debts and to take care of the household; while they did nothing to help or to show him any appreciation. This story also show how one can give their all and when they are in need of help those that he or she helped along the way will turn their backs with no regard to you. While I was reading, “Metamorphosis”, it made me view life in a different way, and made me come to a decision of taking time out for myself in order to enjoy every essence of being me, and not neglect myself.
