All this because of one decision she made to berry her brother caused her life to fall apart and everyone she loved to disappear. This was in some ways similar to the consequences that Creon had to face with the decision. He was left alone with no one because he killed his family; he killed his own son because its what he thought was right for the town. He didn’t know that his decision was going to force him to live alone. All of this was because they were too stubborn and selfish to change their mind or listen to other peoples view.
Well near the end Gatsby and Daisy hits the woman Gatsby has affairs with on accident then Tom tells this woman’s husband, George, That Gatsby killed her even though Daisy was the one driving. George shots Gatsby and Daisy and Tom leave. All of this is to show that Nick could have stopped this. He knew Daisy was in an abusive relationship and adding Gatsby into the mix would have made it worse. Nick could have prevented all of this madness and confusion if he just said no to Gatsby’s request.
Society had thrown out Oakhurst, Duchess and Mother Shipton for them being themselves; by living their successes they were condemned. The lovers left society because they knew their union wouldn’t be accepted. This is an example in literature about how the society in real life didn’t accept people who were living out their lives on their terms and not according to any unspoken rules that were expected to follow. Though all of the outcasts were looked down upon and their lives were cut short by the storm that forced premature death they had been living the new American success by being themselves and not letting society dictate their every decision. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain show both how society still tries to shape individuals and how Huck lives his own success.
Another evidence that proves that Paul really did get in a car accident and died was the queen of England. She predicted that after Paul’s death many suicides will follow so she told Maxwell to tell the beatles to tell no one about his death. Therefore they made a fake Paul to make people think that Paul was still alive. They went through all the trouble to make fake paul look like the real one even though it took numerous
For example Lennie was in the barn felling Curleys wife’s hair which was his first mistake then when she pulled away he grabbed at he to keep quite but as he did that he closed her airways and killed her. This was a honest mistake on his part he just didn’t want her to scream rape like what happened at his first job. Raymond made the mistake of telling Charlie’s girlfriend that Charlie was using him. He also made the mistake of the hooker making a date with him at 10 but she just wanted the time. Both honest mistakes that he didn’t even know he made.
Daisy Buchanan was in love with materialistic things from the very beginning when Gatsby says “She only married you because I was poor and she was tired of waiting for me” (Fitzgerald 137).The fact that Daisy would leave Gatsby for Tom Buchanan just because he was poor, really shows her love for material. Daisy’s’ materialistic values is what corrupted her. That Corruption is what Gatsby later explained to Nick about the car accident, “Well, first Daisy turned away from the woman toward the other car, and then she lost her nerve and turned back. Daisy action shows her corrupting, since she kept driving without caring that she hit Myrtle. Daisy love for materialistic things is what causes her to live
Either she was too weak to figure out her situation, or a lifetime of having everything handed to her made her simply not want to. Tom and Daisy left the very next day. And through how a stressed Daisy ran over Tom's mistress, Myrtle, causing her husband, George Wilson, to shoot Gatsby out of grief and confusion, it caused his death too. It still wouldn't have mattered if he hadn't died-Daisy and Tom still would've left. His dream of reliving the past was all he really had.
She also states that people tend to form a collective mind, therefore they usually don’t do anything to help the person who is in trouble because they cannot think for themselves and they are waiting for somebody else’s action. I absolutely agree with the author because I had a similar experience in my life. Several years ago I got hit by the car of a drunk driver on a service road close to my home. There were a lot of neighbors around and nobody called for help or even helped me. Thanks God, my mother was with me at that moment, so she called 911.
One example of this is how Tom uses Myrtle to cheat on Daisy and escape from his busy life, and in the end Myrtle gets killed. This is very severe, and although Tom was only using Myrtle as a fling, and nothing truly serious, the consequences were, indeed, very serious. Even though Tom didn’t mean for it to happen, if he hadn’t been so obsessed with himself and only looking after his own pleasure, he wouldn’t have cheated on Daisy with Myrtle in the first place. And if he hadn’t done that, Myrtle would still be alive and living happily with Tom. Another example is how after Myrtle died, Tom told Wilson that it was Gatsby (even though we know it was Daisy) and Wilson killed Gatsby.
Gatsby tells Nick, "Daisy stepped on it. I tried to make her stop, but she couldn't" (p. 144). Daisy does not have enough conscience to stop the car even though Gatsby is telling her to pull over. Daisy's immorality in the period after she hit Myrtle also leads to Gatsby's death. Instead of taking blame for driving the car she ran away from the situation and fled town as quickly as possible with Tom.
