She is an embarrassment to the family with all the gossiping she does and is one of the main causes Darcy does not find Bingley and Jane’s relationship acceptable. Mr Bennet married her for lust and now he has to put up with her ‘poor nerves’. I think that Austen is showing readers that marrying only for physical appearance is wrong, as beauty fades with time. Another example of marriage for lust is the marriage of Wickham and Lydia, but this marriage was also for money. Lydia is flirtatious and had her eye on the officers for a long time.
Tom does not like the fact that his wife might leave him and starts to compete against Gatsby for the love of Daisy. Meaningful Quote "I'm glad it's a girl. And I hope she'll be a fool-that's the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool" (Fitzgerald: 1950, 22). This quote stood out because I would
However, other characters, like Elizabeth Bennet, represents the value of marrying for love with her argumentative attitude towards the act with superficial feelings and it being forced. Elizabeth, or Lizzy, differs greatly from the rest of female characters, as her views on the act are completely different and she refuses to wed a man (Mr. Collins) whom she does not love. Elizabeth and Darcy's love also has a moral to it; you can't love truthfully for the appearances, and that love must gradually develop between the two people if they really desire it, despite their arguments. Nevertheless, marriage for love is shown as incorrect by introducing Mr. and Mrs. Bennet's relationship. They have married for lust and love, after Mr. Bennet being seduced by Mrs. Bennet's good looks, and their love faded away with Mrs. Bennet's good looks after she gave birth to their five daughters, and now Mr. Bennet finds her irritating.
Daisy is then forced in the middle, to choose who she loves. Daisy ends up choosing Tom and Gatsby is left feeling hurt because he misjudged Daisy’s feelings for him. People may evaluate others on how much they notice they show affection towards something or someone. It may be on how much or how little love they show. In the book, A Farewell to Arms by Ernest Hemingway, the love of an ambulance driver for a nurse during World War I seems strange.
Although, he is not in love with the Daisy’s personality, he is infatuated by her looks. One could say that he is in love with the illusion of daisy. The idea of her still being the same girl he left behind before going to war is the idea he obsesses over. He does not realize that he can not just pick up where he left off. When he returned to his beloved Daisy, she had broken her promise and married a wealthy man as well as had a child.
However the highly-contrived rhyme and the somewhat stilted syntax to which it leads (as in the penultimate stanza) make the narrator's mode of address seem somewhat unnatural: the reader does not (as one does with "The Man He Killed") have a clear and immediate sense of the narrator's character. Stanza 1 Knowing that soldiers are "light in their loving" i.e. inconstant, the narrator acknowledges how foolish she and her friends have been to choose such men as husbands, even without the additional hardship of losing them to uncertain battle in a distant country. Note the internal rhyme: "sad ... mad", "choosing ... loosing". This will recur in every stanza.
He cheats on her, and when she finds out, it seems he could not care less. But Daisy cannot even leave him because she is too scared, and has no one to run to. Through Daisy’s situation, Fitzgerald is expressing that even when people are treated horribly, they still rely on wealth and high status. Even in society today, we see people deteriorating because of their goals to meet society’s standards. The neglect from her husband causes Daisy to wilt, much like the flower if it were treated harshly.
Near the start of the novel Henry ignores Rinaldis claim on Catherine and starts to see her. While rather annoyed at this, Rinaldi sees that Catherine prefers Henry over him and accepts their relationship “insert quote”. This light hearted way of letting go is only possible as both men at this point of time were typical male chauvinist’s From early on we learn Catherine knows about the war and has experienced tragedy in it. Catherine, who once thought of war as a romantic idea, is suddenly hit by the reality of what war does to people when she loses her fiancée to an explosion. “I thought saber cut… blew him to bits instead” Henry begins his relationship with Catherine and sees it as a game”I did not love Catherine Barkley nor had any idea of loving her.
Lady Bracknell would rather have Gwendolen marry a man that knows nothing, rather than a man that knows everything. The love between the two couples is absolutely ridiculous and is based on nonsense. For example, Cecily says to Algernon: “It is always painful to part from people whom one has known for a very brief space of time. The absence of old friends, on can endure with equanimity” (Earnest 54). According to Miss Prism those who are unmarried simply live for pleasure and that marriage is not a pleasurable arrangement.
In other words, Mescudi is trying to explain how he is lonely, but that is ironic because you would expect him to have any girl he desires. He is saying how love is ignorant to him, but he still needs someone to love him. In addition, Mescudi uses connotation very well in his poem. He says, “An independent sister got me fly when she could, But they all didn’t see, the little bit of sadness in me, Scotty”, (13-14). Mescudi’s point is to show how his older sister bought him everything he needed when she could.
