“Should I shoot the elephant or should I not?” or “Will I lose face with these people if I don’t shoot the elephant?” Orwell was the kind of person that did not have a very high self-esteem. He did not have his ducks in a row, so to speak. Hence, Orwell wasn’t one to function under pressure. He would give in to what he thought the people of Burma wanted, not to what he wanted. But secretly inside he hated the environment in which he lived, he hated the imperialistic government in which resided in Burma, and he hated the residents of Burma.

|Arthur's Unrealism: Monty Python, Gawain and the Green Knight, and the Destruction of Ideals | It may be that ideals are necessary for humanity. Without idealized images, codes of behavior, even idealized objects, mankind would have difficulty functioning. There would be a lack of context or criteria with which to judge objects that may be termed less than ideal. However, the problem with idealized images is that they can never be described fully, and certainly never attained. An example is the contemporary ideal of feminine beauty, which has led to countless problems such as depression and psychological dietary disorders among women who perceive themselves to be "inadequate."

It is their crippling xenophobia which prohibits them from acting with any kind of empathy, compassion or
Opposition Arguments to Different Narrowed Positions 1. Not everyone should have to be a vegetarian for the fact that animals can feel pain, but they should not have the same rights as humans. Animals are part of our food chain. They are not capable of being more than what they are.

Once dreams are abandoned, happiness is impossible to achieve, leaving a person trapped in a cycle of misery. As evidenced by the attitudes of both Crookes and George, hopes and ambitions are not about feasible plans, but instead about discovering a way to pull through the depression, even if it’s just deceiving the mind with fantasies that may not come true. Upon the realization that these dreams will indeed not happen, misery and dissatisfaction is the only thing left. Crookes’ incapability to enter a world of hope, leads him into a bitter life lacking the thrill of living.
