He recalls that “we don’t have to say anything, that’s how it is between people who are each others’ first memories.” He has not been willing to give Hassan the loyalty he deserves and is involuntarily using this memory to fill the void that his lack of allegiance has left. This idea generates a level of equality between Hassan and himself that is not there in actuality. Consequently, Amir becomes conscious that Hassan truly is his best memory, romanticized or not. The Hazara boy, though still a paradox, is now understood as a defining person in his life. Whether Amir is reminiscing about a missed childhood or lamenting the awful treatment of his brother, he will be constantly affected by him throughout the novel.

The boys set a trap for the shark and waited until the next day to find the buoy twenty feet underwater. Sonny was chosen to retrieve the buoy and while doing that he found a shark on the line. Once the shark was finally caught the boys put a note in every lunch box of the whole film crew in hope of the old man would find the note to come see the shark. The man did not show so the boys let the shark go. This part of the chapter seemed hard to believe, only because of the timing between letting the shark go and when the old man talked to him.
Beowulf Values The story of Beowulf holds many interesting values about each character. The characters value their fathers names, their armor and treasures. These values are clearly shown throughout the story and affect the plot dramatically . Beowulf truly cares about his father Edgetho and his appearance in his armor because of how he presents himself when meeting new people stating his father's name right away, and treasures because he lost his life for a treasure. The value of a man's fathers name is very important to the men in this time period.
The America Dream is founded on the idea that achievement and fortune are the compensation for working hard and looking always looking to better oneself. Even if the connection between Gatsby and Jesus is not a major point in The Great Gatsby, it is nonetheless a strong parallel. Gatsby sculpts his life become the ideal that he envisioned for himself—a “Platonic conception of himself”—he is remains committed to this goal despite the obstacles that society presents to the fulfillment of his dream.

“While being lifted onto an LST, he was almost dropped into the sea, having only been caught by the foot. After laying in the hold with hundreds of other wounded, he finally got a spot on the USS Samaritan.”(Standring Pg.5) Happily, the flag went up on Suribachi, just before Lucas was shipped off to Honolulu. Lucas went under the knife twenty two times before the doctors were finished. “Surprisingly, there are about 200 pieces of scrap iron still in him, some the size of .22-caliber bullets, which to this day, constantly set off airport metal detectors.”(Carpenter Pg.1) After close to seven months, Lucas was in good enough shape to be separated and put up for the Medal of Honor. At the time, the young man did not even know what it was, claimed “I went there to do one thing, and that was to
The characters dialogues where believable and adequately portray by their circumstances. You have the noble hero, motivational muse that keeps the hero alive, the political figures, the villain’s, the comrades, the friend’s. In my opinion the main character, Ender remains the same. Ender is a smart and noble worrier and his biggest conflict throughout the movie is that he wants to defeat the enemy but still feels the necessity to maintain his humanity in the process. Possibly the biggest and only change we see in Ender is that he loses his fears and learns to be a leader and ultimately the noble hero of the story.
His story remains a source of inspiration, resilience, and determination that a young boy had to survive. In addition to writing this book, David remains an advocate for victims of child abuse through awareness and prevention. He has received many awards in his efforts for child abuse awareness. He also is now a father himself, boasting that he was able to break the vicious cycle of abuse saying that his only guilt is “that of spoiling his son with love and encouragement”. David’s story illustrates the strength of the human spirit and the ability to keep his heart intact even through unbelievably extreme circumstances.
