Aphra "approached Anys with a mixture of fear and awe, and perhaps some envy." p39 She "knows more than we do" Aphra's sees her as having "too much pride...for an orphan" and is jealous of her sexual attractiveness. SO, The point I would get from this section is that Anna is impressed by Anys. Specifically, she is impressed by her willingness to help others. She realises that the knowledge she has is something to be grateful for (although at his stage she is not willing to pursue it) and she accepts that there is something positive about Anys.
A very obedient child, yet very strong in her devotion to love. The only time she disobeyed her parent’s wishes was for her devotion to her husband Romeo. Juliet's love for Romeo was as pure as his love for her. It was love at first sight. She was his lady and his love.
While her getting worse than before, it dramatically shows the procedure of being enlightened in case of rising of female powers. There are several evidences that may represent narrator’s mental instability and they seem to be originated from John’s oppressive way to treat her. The narrator is afraid that John doesn't seem to understand her state fully enough. "Personally, I believe that congenial work, with excitement and change, would do me good." (1279) She knows doing her favorite work―writing―and traveling around beautiful places may be helpful to recover her nervous hypochondria, but she just tries not to make John irritated by doing nothing.
Romeo is talking in paradoxes; he does this to emphasize that love is confusing. He says that love is everything except for what it actually is. Since Romeo thinks that he is in love although no one loves him, love can be two things that are opposites at the same time. Although Romeo is happy to be in love, he does not like the thought of love itself because if no one loves him back, love will become more confusing. Romeo is hopelessly in love with Rosalind which he explains when he says, "I am too sore enpiercèd with his shaft To soar with his light feathers, and so bound, I cannot bound a pitch above dull woe.
Olds suggests in this poem that “True Love’’ is all about two people having passion, oneness, and comfort with each other. These three things in a marriage or relationship create true love. Also, she tries to show that without true love, sex is no good. From the beginning of the poem, the speaker talks about the passion between her and her husband. She expresses that their love making is very intense and passionate.
People who dwell on their deficits may envy and resent others who have more than they do. Some people who are unable to overcome social shortcoming fantasize about obtaining any means, good or bad, to satisfy every need and greed. Prevention of these instances is essential to living in a life filled with satisfaction and peace, away from evil. Heroes are made by the paths they choose, not the powers or skills they are graced with. For the Villain with a smiling cheek says he is strong but he is truly week.
This would cause her to see the imperfections within people but not herself and cause her to think that she had to be better than anyone else. Now this may be true, but the fact that Miss. Strangeworth enjoys the feeling that she gets
Is he a reliable resource, or an unreliable narrator whose creditability is compromised by his point of view and stereotyping? We can assume some trust because it also seems in the story that society has created a stereotype in which he must follow to meet a female companion based on where he is from and his financial status. He also implies that girls are smart, which is one of the reasons why he is doing so much to improve his chances of having relations with girls. Furthermore, he is being sympathetic towards their social label by giving the girls the credit they deserve. It is important to note that Junot Diaz covers a large variety of races, and his inclusion of many types of people shows a consistent trend of unjustified labels.
Everyone loves to have a good friend—someone you can count on to laugh with, tell stories to, crack some jokes with. Not only is it nice to have such a person, but it is healthy. When you have a bad day and need to let off a little steam, it is great to do that with this person. If you allow too many things to build up inside and you are dying to tell someone it is not at all healthy. Maybe that includes being a bit of a “sin committer” as Orwell mentions, but these are friends that are invaluable.
Human example and influence are also very powerful and can corrupt the mind eager for recognition or that craves to feel wanted and accepted. The morals and values that this type of person has been taught are pushed to the back of his/her mind and become less important than the need to "fit in". Unfortunately for these people, any attention and recognition is sought after, even if it is negative. There is an obvious difference between those who are afflicted with no conscience at birth and those who have one. No amount of moral teaching or love and comfort will keep these people satisfied and happy to be "good".
