Mr Knightley quotes, “ If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more. But you know what I am – you hear nothing but truth from me”, the technique used in this quote is emotive language as Mr Knightley is expressing his innermost heartfelt feelings. It demonstrates the most dramatic examples
In Wild Oats It explains that a person, over the course of time, comes to realise that his greatest desires of love, are unattainable, and second best things will have to suffice. The central purpose of this poem is to show that love is one of these great desires and despite flashes of promise it contains scarcely anything that is more than fragmentary. Larkin reveals this through tone and diction. Both poets seem to focus a lot on the physical side of love where lust and desire are involved however Abse makes it sound more sensual and even spiritual when he speaks of Eros in his poem. Larkin portrays this sense of objectification in his poem with regards to woman as he describes a woman as a ‘bosomy English rose’ and then follows on to call her ‘beautiful’ throughout the poem portraying the sexual lust involved with love.
Sure, sometimes he may have acted crazy. Okay. But he loved me. In his own way maybe, but he loved me." (pp 110-111) To the reader, it seems hard to believe that there could be love in a relationship where one partner physically abuses the other.
But now I hate her guts”. (Carver pg.169 paragraph 57) He wonders what happened to that love. All that love would be or is just a memory. Later, Nick and Laura started talking about what love meant to them. Their ideal of love is to love each other and to enjoy each other’s company.
Even though romantic love and parental love can be completely different they have similarities. One example is they can both be unconditional. In some cases of romantic love they love each other so much that they are willing to die for
Mrs. Mallard through her subconscious battles also experiences a sense of being free, “What could love, the unsolved mystery, count for in the face of this possession of self—assertion which she suddenly recognized as the strongest impulse of her being! “Free! Body and soul free!” she kept whispering” (237). Dissimilar in setting, and adversity, the two characters Jake from “Love in L.A.” and Mrs. Mallard from “The Story of an Hour” share indistinguishable parts. The characters partake in subconscious battles of the right things to do verses indecent, have altered reactions to the situations they deal with, and a sense of freedom or feelings of free is felt by both Jake and Mrs. Mallard in closing or near the closing of the stories.
He is saying that is might not be wise for loving him, but he swears it won’t be stupid for he is going to be “horribly” in love with her. The word choice of “horribly” emphasizes a sense of awkwardness because he doesn’t know the first thing when it comes to love. It also gives a bit of that comical side to Benedick’s character, even in the name of love, he still can’t forget about the competition between him and Beatrice.
That he or she knows what love is and where one can find it. I would say he might have an idea, but love being as complex as it is it’s impossible for any one man or woman to have a complete understanding of the notion. What is this thing called love that cannot stand alone, but depends on modifiers and conjunctions to complete it, to give it heft and meaning? There is “brotherly” love, “platonic” love, “puppy” love, “courtly” love, and of course, that most vexing, confounding, ever-elusive “romantic” love. It is these aspects that make love as confusing as it is, and these aspects also draw people to the concept of love.
As Benedick confesses his love to Beatrice, so too does she. “It were as possible for me to say I loved nothing so well as you. But believe me not, and yet I lie not. I confess nothing nor I deny nothing.” (4.1) They are surprised to hear the other admitting so easily to it, but the sheer joy which follows is clear “I love you with so much of my heart that none is left to protest.” The interactions between Beatrice and Benedick show us that people often hide behind masks in fear of the unknown, that self-deceit isn’t always the best thing for us and that sometimes we must take a leap of faith to discover
English 93 Ed’s Love or not Love Love is to want; to caring; to share with someone. In addition; romantic love is emotional attraction towards another person associated with love. Without the love relationship in both parties, it is only unrequited love, not a true romantic love.
