She is sure, that “pride – where there is a real superiority of mind, pride will be always under good regulation”. But when she receives letter from him, she understands it was very bad of her to think about him in such a way. Thirdly, Austen shows her readers that there is difference between love and marriage. “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife”. According to Charlotte “happiness in marriage is entirely a matter of chance… and it is better to know as little as possible of the
The two generate an interesting debate; however they might lose their credibility because Robert brought the fact that Jacqueline was married which is not job related and could be discriminatory to unmarried applicant while Paul he continually refer about Sonya’s enthusiasm and could be the selling point but this is not also offer any substantial reasons for her preference. One thing that I observed for the two is that Robert and Paul have a very good relationship – when they do have disagreements they are understanding and accepting of their differences and compromise when necessary. Robert doesn’t think too highly of the swinging bachelor persona, but it hasn’t affected job performance – anyway, it’s diversity that makes life
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.
Dexter believes if he has Judy he will be happy and satisfied with his life. She represents fallacy in two aspects. The first, she is unobtainable which makes her a fallacy because it is impossible to make her part of the dream. He was not able to get her at first, and then he was unable to hold an engagement with her. In another aspect, she is a fallacy because the image of what she is changes completely when Dexter sees her
Also “empty alliances” refers to how when confrormed into a society, people are unified, but it is empty because there is no real meaning to the unity of society because peple want to be with other people. “An end to ego baths” says that once sineone is free, they will not have any gratitude in helping smeoneout because there will be no one with you to help, so therefore you won’t have the same ‘happy’ feeling. Referring to the results of being free, freedom “confronts loneliness and lives with it”. In other words, one will be lonely once they are in a state of freedom. There are also some positives to being free.
She was determined to only marry someone if she was completely in love no matter what their social class may be. Elizabeth believes that she and Mr. Darcy are in the same social class because she is a gentleman’s daughter and Mr. Darcy is a gentleman’s son and now a gentleman himself. The amount of money each has is of no relevance to her. Mr. Darcy, however, took social class very serious and strongly believed in only marrying within the same social class. When Darcy first met Elizabeth he was unimpressed and said that she was unattractive simply because he knew that she was not as wealthy as him.
Both Emily and Susan are expected to love Kane, but both become alienated by his coldness and lack of personal sacrifice. He expects Leland to provide him with platonic or fraternal love but is disappointed when Leland draws attention to his flaws. He fights for the love of the people in his quest to be governor but fails because he wants to control them and “tells them what to think”. Interestingly, it is his need for power and control that undermines his attainment of love as in all cases his refusal to give up “something he really cares about” to any of these people. When Leland and Kane toast to “love on [Kane’s] terms” the use of financial jargon like terms illuminates Kane’s misunderstanding of love attainment; He believes he can buy it, rather than
There are however cracks in the perceived happiness of this seemingly perfect society. Helmholtz, Bernard, and Lenina are examples of the cracks in what was a seemingly perfect society. Helmholtz was a model example of his caste. Yet, he felt he had a job that was empty and meaningless. He wanted to start writing to do something more significant.
I think it relates but with a twist. The pleasure that Aymler is trying to obtain is seeing Georgiana without the birthmark. This is because the birthmark represents everything that he despises about Georgiana. He is in constant effort to obtain this pleasure but lacks conscience to do so. This is primarily because he does not think about the most important aspect of this obsession with is Georgiana herself.
Sylvia felt as though she had almost been neglected from the love she believed she should have received from her husband Gellburg; whereas Gellburg was completely unaware of the way Sylvia was feeling because he was too absorbed in his own world and job, but more importantly he thought Sylvia deserved much more than he could ever give her. It wasn’t until towards the end of the play when life as they knew was slipping between their fingers; they were able to finally overcome the fear and embarrassment of telling each other how they really felt. The extract from pages 84-86 supports this as it shows how both characters are now a lot more sympathetic rather than being cold and lifeless. When Hyman suggests that the cause of Sylvia’s illness may not just of been because of the obsessive state she got in over Germany but also because of Gellburg’s behaviour, but he refused to believe it.
