At that point, he started to take advantages of everything that is beneficial to him. Although, he looked like he accepted everything, but there was some things that just didn't seem like a benefit to him. Just like when at the theater; he had to sit separate from his college friends. He has turned down offers before, but of course he gladly accepts anything people are willing to do for him. In the story; it seems to be missing his rejections of offers, because its as though most of the benefits in the story has been made to be sarcastic.
Beatrice and Benedick are longtime adversaries who often engage in battles of wit and both swear that neither will ever fall in love. The first act of deception takes place between them at the masquerade ball. Both are masked and engaged in a conversation but are unaware that they are speaking with each other. They talk of one another in the conversation and both get slightly offended but it causes no further harm in the plot of the story. This provides the audience with a little more humor in the plot.
His unorthodox methods not only taught the boys to think for themselves, but they also awoke the boys’ inner desires and dreams. This movie does an excellent job of portraying the school’s four pillars (tradition, honor, discipline, and excellence) and the four I’s (individualism, innocence, intuition, and imagination) through members of the Dead Poets Society, specifically Todd Anderson and Charlie “Nuwanda” Dalton. Todd Anderson showed the best understanding of the philosophies of transcendentalism, notably Ralph Waldo Emerson’s. Todd failed to follow Emerson’s philosophy of “Imitation is suicide” until the very last minute of the movie, when he daringly stood up on his desk and called out “Oh Captain, my Captain!” to Mr. Keating. He could not hold in his guilt anymore because he felt bad for conforming, or imitating, what the other members of the Dead Poets Society had done in Mr. Nolan’s office.
Parson. Parson seems to feel that there is nothing wrong and he is high enough in society that he doesn’t have to worry about the change in society, not paying much attention or thinking that his children may be him and his wife’s downfall.

This may be his downfall, because he want’s so bad to change society that he will tell the first person he thinks is on his
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).
Alex figured if she thinks im good looking mabey she will love me tonight. And sarah figured if she could avoid love it would go away and all guys were jerks.

That takes guts. That is when Sammy's initiation into adulthood becomes apparent. Though some may think that you shouldn't make such brass decisions based solely off the intention of impressing anyone else, instead Sammy holds his ground in being affirmative of his decision that Lengel blatantly embarrassed those women. Unaware that the women had already sped out the sliding doors, Sammy “[hoped the women] had stop to watch [him], their unsuspected hero” (Updike 195), stand up for them. Though the women were unaware of what Sammy had done.

This journey helps Santiago learn new things about himself and other people. His destiny was right in front of him, but life had to have him go through the entire journey by crossing the dessert to overcoming impossible difficulties to find his treasure. We are absolutely not prisoners of fate; we are not in control of our fate we are innocent of what has been decided among us. Franklin D. Roosevelt had once stated, “Men are not prisoners of fate, but only prisoners of their own minds.” This quote clearly meant that we aren’t in control of fate, but we are in control of our actions and decisions. Catcher in the Rye and The Alchemist relates to this quote.
Everything from who the first settlers were to how the Pilgrims landed on Plymouth Rock might be misleading according to the history you were exposed to in school. High School history books seem to have a purpose, “They portray the past as a simple-minded morality play. ‘Be a good citizen’ is the message that the texts books extract from the past.
