They are both selfish men, led by irrational motives. Macbeth killed a good king; he speaks greatly of Duncan when he reconsiders murdering Duncan due to his good heart; “Besides, this Duncan hath borne his faculties so meek, hath been so clear in his great office that his virtues shall plead trumpet-tongued against the deep damnation of his taking off. "(1.7.16-20) Macbeth also happened to be related to Duncan but that still didn’t stop him from murdering him and fulfilling his prophecy. Under Macbeth’s rule, people were in constant worry due to the numerous assassinations and experienced food shortages. The narrator in ATTH, killed because he claimed the old man’s eyes resembled that of a vulture’s and that he felt uncomfortable because he also claimed that whenever they fell on him, his “blood ran cold”.
She displays her mental fortitude in many ways. For example when the Spider-man lets her know he is fond of her she doesn’t even flinch, she also doesn’t let her emotions overwhelm her when Sophie lets out her rage and frustration. Another account of when she portrayed her strength is when she had to leave her mother when she had to escape the people on horses trying to capture her. As well as being strong she is also very intelligent. Like David, she understands that the community they live in, Waknuk, is not safe for them and realizes early that they need to escape.
Hey!” and the prettiest tarpon the author had ever seen came almost six feet out of the water. That big fish struggled and the kid’s left hand held the crank while the extended fingers felt for the drag settings. The author shouted the kid to leave the drag alone. After a moment, the author saw the flash of silver as the fish turned. The kid cranked like mad and finally the fish came to surface and began a low circle in the middle of the canal.
Elizabeth Bishop states, “I stared and stared and victory filled up the little rented boat” (64-66). The fisherman is filled with victory from doing what other fishermen were unable to do: catch this fish. Even though the author has caught the fish, he admires the fish for what it has overcome and appreciates the magnificence of nature and releases the fish. By reading the poem carelessly, one could think that the fish won the fight, but the fish was not able to escape capture and the fishermen did what others couldn’t: catch the fish. The only
You quickly realise when reading To Kill a Mockingbird that Scout is who she is because of the way Atticus has raised her. While most girls Scout’s age would be wearing dresses and learning manners, Scout, thanks to Atticus’s parenting style, can decide for herself to wear overalls and learn to climb trees with Jem and Dill. She is very intelligent for her age as Atticus has taught her how to read before she even started school. Atticus builds his morals up in Scout
This struggle would be Santiago's last challenge. However, Santiago ended up tricking the marlin, which led him to see the marlin as very noble. Santiago thought of him as his equal, a sort of friend. ‘’ This fish is my friend too…’’ (75). Even though the marlin was indeed his friend as well as his equal, the old man knew he still needed to capture and kill the fish to regain his acceptance from the other fisherman.
Because he went out so far, the sharks ate the fish on the way back to the port. He did not want his fish to be ripped and eaten by Santiago's worst enemy, the sharks. He wished it were only a dream so that the fish would not have to go through the pain. This example shows how much he cared for the fish and how his relationship with the fish was affected by his feeling of caring. Santiago also deeply respects fish in general and this aspect of his relationship to the fish is clearly shown throughout the book.
The Cove The first word that poped out of my mind after I saw the movie “The Cove” is “Wow”. In the film, Ric O’s Barry which was a dolphin trainer, he figured out that dolphins are such intelligent creatures, they shouldn’t be captive and fill humans’ happiness, and they belong where they came from, the ocean. In Japan, Taiji, 23,000 dolphins are being slaughters each year in the cove, it really harms the dolphins population, and nobody knows this is happening, not even the Japanese people. The Japanese government knew what was going on, they wanted money, they hid the facts, and they feed their kids with meats full of toxins. Should dolphins be living in a stressful life because of our human’s selfishness?
Which in reality most women with weight are comfortable with it. These two attitudes clash because conversation comes to “girl you can wear that and I can’t” or “I don’t have any butt for jeans like that”. Your attitude determines your altitude, and skinny girls don’t fly to high in my book. Confidence is what larger women have the most of, being able to go with the social stereotypes, over the years are able to be happy with them. Skinny women are told that there what everyone wants, but when they see men going after larger women they feel some type of way.
Dolphin Slaughter. “A dolphin’s smile is nature's biggest deception,” says Rick O’Barry. People from all over the world pay big bucks to gather and watch dolphins perform at aquariums, but little do they know, they are just contributing to the dolphin slaughter taking place in Taiji, Japan. An article in The St. Petersburg Times states that “In a grisly annual ritual, Japanese fishermen herd bottlenose dolphins into shallow water then kill the highly evolved marine mammals with knives and clubs, turning the sea a bright red with their blood. Some are strung up by their tails to suffer agonizing deaths.
