They also have to change beliefs and principles in order to survive. One major change is in Robyn, at the start of the novel she refuses to pick up a gun, let alone kill someone. But when she is faced with saving her friends she pushes all her fears and her faith away, and shoots the invaders. Robyn, in an extreme effort to help Lee was able to pick up a whole photocopier and move it out of the way, she then picked him up and was able to take him to a safer place. This took a lot of courage and shows that the human spirit will triumph when put in a difficult situation.
Another reason their relationship is dangerous is that if John Procter were to prosecute against Abigail Williams saying that she is in fact a witch, Abigail Williams could very easily tell the entire town that she and Procter have been having an affair to get revenge on him. It wouldn’t really affect her too much, but on the contrary, it would ruin his reputation in the town and his relationship with his wife. Later in Act I, Abigail is being “interrogated” by Reverend Hale and she claims “I never sold myself! I’m a good girl! I’m a proper girl!” (Miller 40) in this statement, Abigail is defending herself that she never sold herself to the devil.
Lady Macbeth states that “The sleeping and the dead/ Are but as pictures” (2.2.56, 57). Lady Macbeth is emotionless because she feels that death and sleep are exactly the same. She tries to convince Macbeth that murder is not as great of a sin as he thinks it is. Lady Macbeth feels no remorse in her and Macbeth’s actions due to her greedy and cruel personality. In addition, Lady Macbeth proves that she is more rational than Macbeth.

By reading the end of Willa Cather’s “Paul’s Case: A Study in Temperament”, readers predict that Paul commits suicide by throwing himself before a train. But Michael Salda does not believe that. The author starts the passage by creating a question in our mind if Paul is truly dead or not. In the passage, Salda questions many times if we should call this a suicide just on the basis of the textual evidence. Salda found something strange that most readers are not shocked by the ending and would find the reason to understand the fact that Paul has committed suicide.
For instance, the purpose of the play within the play is to show that women are not always faithful; Lucy and even Julie, who is found to have a lesbian partner she wants to keep true to, have demonstrated this outside the play. This knowledge contributes to Lewis’ transformation, as he now knows what he wants to do, and understands how to handle himself and
She explained the coming of age, the false view of the world from a novel, determination, and she also explains her view on hope. Hope is the feeling of expectation and desire for something to happen. According to Donnelly, hope does not always have a positive result. She exhibits this in her story about young girl who becomes hopeless and is in desperation of fulfilling her dreams. Jennifer Donnelly used literary devices to develop hope in her story and used contrast, symbolism, and similes to display them Mattie Gokey was presented with many situations in which her hope was all she can depend on but cannot seem to find it reliable.

In conclusion I believe that Waverly did not commit suicide or accidentally fall off the boat.
Hutchinson and Schwartz. In “The Lottery”, when Mrs. Hutchinson realized that she was the chosen one by the community to be killed, she did not tried to run, beg for mercy or ask her family for protection and save her from being stoned to death. She accepted her death without fighting for her life. On the contrary, in the case of “The Jewbird”, Schwartz did everything he could to survive, he even reached and caught Cohen’s nose, but he manage to get the bird by its legs and break it in pieces. These two actions are seeing now as very cruel acts in human society and should be
Though John had already confessed his affair in front of the entire court, when Elizabeth is questioned she denies it, claiming that “[her] husband is a goodly man” (3.949-50). Her lying is understandable though because naturally when people are placed in situations where their words literally determine the life or death of a loved one, they will lie to protect them. However, it is not seen that way, and causes controversy since Proctor previously claimed that his wife never lied; this is a turning point in Elizabeth’s character because it proves Elizabeth still loves her husband enough to even defy her commitment to always tell the truth. Later, after the court deems John as a threat, both Elizabeth and John are sentenced to prison allowing Elizabeth ample time to properly assess her marital problems. She eventually comes to the conclusion that the affair was partially her fault and confesses to John that “[she] counted [herself] so plain, so poorly made; no honest love could come to [her]”
