Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury is a novel that represents transcendentalism very well throughout the whole novel. Clarisse expresses free thought when she explains to Montag the things that go on in her mind and what she thinks about, multiple characters are examples of nonconformity because they have different views than the rest of their society, and Guy Montag shows individualism by knowing something is wrong and doing what has to be done on his own. Transcendentalism was created in the mid-19th by people who wanted to get more out of life than they did every day, they believed that the truth existed through intuition, beyond experience, reason, and established religious doctrines. Transcendentalists believe that God is in nature and that we are all a part of nature. In their minds, nature is a big part of our lives that most people take for granted.
This is an important message the poem has reminded me of. Emotionally, there are times when I just give up, but this poem gave me the inspiration to not think this way because there are various of ways to overcome the obstacles life has randomly prepared for us.

Life is full of walls that seem to not budge, but when work hard to pass the obstacle, we will know that we have succeeded and that is the greatest present life can give us. Whether I lost hope or just gave up, “Where there's a wall” reminds me to persevere no matter what by becoming a rocket shooting over the wall or tying SOS letter to a bird or even exploding like a bomb.
Words, Words, Words "Don't judge a book by its cover" is a turn of phrase which cautions one to truly know and understand a person before passing judgment upon them. In literature, this is the duty of the author: to introduce his or her readers to the characters; to let the readers get inside the heads of the characters and see the world from their perspective. In the realtivism of the literary universe, only through empathy can character be judged. Some authors hold the reader's hand and tell them exactly what to think about a character; they spell out exactly what that character's motivations are and whether these are congruous with the morals of the world the author has crafted. Other authors, such as William Faulker, leave the challenge up to the reader.

Both Mr. Kumars and Ultima teaches them not be restricted to viewing the world in one way, but to see it from many different perspectives. It is important to both Pi and Antonio to not blindly believe in only one authority. “In my experience, a castaway's worst mistake is to hope too much and do too little” (Martel 168). If Pi decided to wait for the rescue boat to miraculously appear and not focus on the realistic problem, he would not have survived. On the other hand, if he haven’t met the religions, the fear might drive him insane.
