Regan governed with focused self-confidence and he never considered his position to place him above those he led. Most people saw Regan as an honest, authentic, genuine and honorable President, but most importantly he was a great communicator. He showed that best himself in the Farewell Address January 1989. “I won a nickname, "The Great Communicator." But I never thought it was my style or, the words I used that made a difference: it was the content.

By and large it seems he has reason to regard future scares baseless. After all he has lived most of his life seeing these scares come and go with no major events to speak of or changes to society. Humans are wrong about a lot of their predictions. Only through lengthy, meticulous study, it seems, can one even be versed enough to make a credible claim. In the end, all that studying can be turned on its head and see entire careers washed away with it.
The resolution comes when he admits everything about himself in the confession booth and begins being honest with everyone around him. In the book “A Million Miles In A Thousand Years” Donald Miller does not know why the movie directors find his story to be noteworthy enough to be made into a movie. In my opinion, his story is extremely noteworthy because it is relatable. Although the producers took liberties such as his mother becoming pregnant by his priest and other pieces of the film to make it more entertaining to watch, there were no climactic fight scenes, or explosions, or tragedies like in most successful movies. Instead, it stayed rather true to Donald Miller’s real life yet still is able to keep the audience intrigued due to its relevancy in many daily lives.
Matt Alley Personal Law 11/4/08 Hour 7 12 Angry Men The Juror that thought the boy was not guilty was Juror #8 or indentified as David at the end of the film. I thought this juror was the best one of the group. I belief he was the best because he kept and open mind the whole time. He listened to what others had to say, and he didn’t let his emotions take over and was on time for the case. The only mistake I noticed that Juror #8 made was when he went an investigated the case on his own.
“Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.” -Charles W. Eliot. By burning books, people cannot learn and therefore cannot have a different opinion about history. The government also controls the people by altering their memory. The government tells the people that firemen always started fires, they never put them out. "There must be something in books, things we can't imagine, to make a woman stay in a burning house; there must be something there.
The most important fact about Hal is that he is not a genius. In fact, he shows this a little when he claims that if he had one tenth of the accomplishments Robert had, he could work in any math department in the country. He may enjoy less than a tenth of Robert’s ability, but he suffers nothing of his curse. He shows us this while he is with his rock band in the after-hours of the night. Hal and his friends go out for drinks and get laid, showing basic forms of sanity among most people.
And right before Hamlet is about to die he kills Claudius and leaves Horatio with a task, which is to tell everyone the true story of what happened throughout the past nine months. Within Hamlet, Horatio often displays how courageous and levelheaded he is. Horatio is such a solid character that leaving him to tell the story is almost perfect. At the beginning of Act I, Horatio shows how levelheaded he really is by wanting to see the ghost for his own eyes. When walking up to Barnardo, Marcellus states “Horatio says
By doing this Ibsen influences our opinion of him in the sense that all our thoughts regarding him are based on Torvald or Nora’s judgements. Additionally, her father’s opinion is never indirectly given on anything except one matter, which is the way in which he viewed Nora. This makes him enigmatic as we can do nothing but guess where he would have stood; nevertheless his standpoint on his daughter was clear. He imposed his views on her, because of this she ‘never had any opinions but his,’ this nurtured her meek nature as well as the fact that ‘he called her his little doll and played with her just the way she played with her dolls.’ Theirs was a fairly conventional father-daughter relationship, however Ibsen questions the possibility that he may have sheltered her too much for her own good, due to the fact that the way he treated her undermined the essence of her personality and thus she conformed to what he wanted her to be. Despite this, as any daughter would, Nora “loved her ‘dear, kind papa!’ best.” Ibsen does this to show how unresisting she is to take on the disposition set out for her by her father.
