We might think that it’s impossible to change the entire world—and it is—so we passively sit and continue to complain. While complaining may seem easier, it comes with a sinister cost. It casts a shadow of helplessness and victimhood and it compounds the issue. Nothing ever changes because of criticism alone. If everyone complained and no one picked up the trash, the situation would stay the same (at best).
According to Superson, in order for self-interest to successfully defeat the skeptic it must defeat both action and disposition skepticism, which is where it lacks. It is unable to show that for every (ordinary) person, acting morally will always be in that person’s self-interest. There are also immoral acts other than self-interested ones that are at least as much in opposition to morality. A successful defeat must show that all immoral acts are irrational. Superson’s goal is to defeat the skeptic and does not believe self-interest is sufficient enough to do so.
Virgo Rising: Modest, unobtrusive, and often rather quiet or shy, you are a person who is content to be in the background or to serve as an assistant, in the supporting role rather than in the lead. You are quite humble in your own assessment of yourself and you have a very strong perfectionistic attitude, with a tendency to be overly self-critical. No matter how well you do something, you always see the flaws in it and how it could be improved. Often you will simply refuse to attempt something because you feel you cannot meet your own high standards. You have an eye for detail and get upset when something is not done just so, usually something others consider rather inconsequential or trivial.
How far do the sources suggest that Millicent Fawcett was ‘quite unfit to be a leader’. Overall, sources 12 and the early stages of source 10 approve of Millicent Fawcett, suggesting she comes across as a positive leader, with Source 10 praising her as being ‘quite public spirited’, demonstrating that she has the power to reflect her feelings, and that she hides nothing. However, source 11 and the end of source 10 suggest that she acts poorly, with source 11 contraciting the early parts of source 10 by calling her ‘inaudible’, and therefore doesn’t make a good leader. Although, sosurce 11 should be degraded slightly, aas its negativity i due to the fact, the author, Webster, is a supporter of an opposing, more militant, Suffrage society, the WSPU. Equally, George Robertson, whom John SStuart Mill is experessing his opinions to in source 10, is likely to have outside motives.
For example, in the case of lying, a deontologist would argue that lying is always wrong, doesn’t matter even if it holds any potential to creating a greater good. While the consequentialist would say that to lie is a wrong thing to do because it would cause negative outcomes as a result, however lying could still be allowed, knowing that it would lead to the creation of a greater good. While as for a virtue-ethicist would care less on just about lying, but focus more on what does the decision say about his/her own traits and character. So here are several features that make the theory of virtue ethics distinctive compared to the other
Sloppy people, you see, are not really sloppy. Their sloppiness is merely the unfortunate consequence of their extreme moral rectitude. Sloppy people carry in their mind’s eye a heavenly vision, a precise plan that is so stupendous, so perfect, it can’t be achieved in this world or the next. Sloppy people live in Never-Never Land. Someday is their métier.
You need to show consideration to be a valuable friend. Because of Gretel not being kind to Bruno and only causing trouble for him, Bruno considers her as a Hopeless Case as suggested when he says to himself, "He wasn't particularly bothered if Gretel was being sent away
Positive: The goal is to get an acceptable negotiation rational to both parties. Negative: The persons involved seek for acceptable compromises and not for solutions. This strategy only provides a temporary answer, it doesn’t resolve the issue. The bargaining behavior is an uneven approach to solving conflict because its outcome is always a win-lose situation in which only the demands of one of the parties are fulfilled. In this approach there is always a loser.
She does not wish to leave her husband’s side despite the accusations; in fact it is because of her purity that she holds herself to the enticing idea that her husband will believe her. Her innocence is unfortunately her downfall, she is one of a pure heart but that is not enough to outweigh the burdens of her being so naive. Despite the fact that she is a well spoken and confident, it does not seem to help her in overcoming the control and authority that Othello possesses. She makes attempts to defend herself in the accusations that were made against her from Iago, Othello’s ensign. The goodness of her character was not enough to withstand the evil and manipulative ways of Iago, in addition to Othello’s authoritative stronghold.
Touchstone is a character who has an individual opinion on the idea of love. His idea is unromantic, but practical. This can be seen in the following quote, “ by how much defence is better than no skill, by so much is a horn more precious than to want.” In this quote, touchstone implies that it is better to be cheated on rather than to have no woman at all and go on unsatisfied. This shows his practicality and also shows how he is quite selfish when it comes to love. “ he is not like to marry me well and, not being well married it will be a good excuse for me hereafter to leave my wife” , this quote illustrates his unromantic portrayal of love, as he is willing to go through great measures to avoid being tied down to one woman.
