Most people shudder at the thought or sight of a Pit Bull and consider them vicious atrocities, but I will show that Pit Bulls are innocent and really are just misunderstood. I would like to give some facts, dispel some myths, and show the side of the breed that the media chooses not to tell. American Pit Bull Terriers were first introduced during World War I and World War II. The job of the Pit Bull was to deliver messages back and forth across the battlefield. Pit Bulls were first bred to bait bulls and bears as a sport back in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but soon became more commonly used as house pets due to their friendliness towards people (Brom, 1987-09, p.14).
George stated at the beginning that Lennie always gets into troubles. “You do bad things and I go to get you out,” (Steinbeck, 11). When Lennie held Curley's wife tighter and tighter we all knew whats going to happen because first he killed a mouse and he thought he will not do the same thing with a puppy. John Steinbeck used his creativity use of foreshadowing to make the book more enjoyable to read. Lennie seems to be very strong, but in reality he is the weakest character in the novel “Of Mice And Men”, because of the lack of his mentality ability and the missing characteristic to think for himself and make his own decisions.
Ashlee Rouse AP Language January 27, 2013 “At one time I thought the most important thing was talent. I think I now that the young man or the young woman must posses or teach himself, train himself, in infinite patience, which is to try and to try and to try until it comes right. He must train himself in ruthless intolerance. That is, to throw away anything that is false no matter how much he might love that page or that paragraph. The most important thing is insight, that is curiosity to wonder, to mull, and to muse why it is that man does what he does.
When one of the “littluns” told the boys of the beastie, they all start to fear for their lives. In Shattering Glass, Lance uses fear to make fun of Simon. Lance gave Simon attention, and while confused by it, Simon was frightened and curious to know what Lance wanted. “I’m curious; do you tuck your shirt into your jocks so it’s easier to wipe your ass or what?” (4). Lance used his power over Simon to lure him into talking and then making a fool of
These feeling are expressed in the story about Rat Kiley's letter, with which the chapter is started - with his feelings of grief about loss and final «cooze», because he was not written back and he could not cope with his loss. His pain is shown in the shoking story of shooting baby buffalo. However, all these stories might have never happened, the soldiers were fighting the war and facing blood, troops and losses, struggling because of their youth and immaturity, fear that cannot be ignored about war. This terrible experience of war is the only truth that author wants to make the readers understand in his
If there a was a battle that others couldn’t beat, he would strategize and bring out all his intelligent’s to be the best at it and prove to others he deserved his spot. “He jumped at the giant, clambered up his lip and nose and began to dig in the giants eye”(64).

Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “Fear always springs from ignorance.” Fear is always present in one’s longevity if he or she lacks knowledge of the word itself, which means if you lack knowledge of something, you will always be intimidated until an action is taken to triumph over your anxiety. To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee and The Crucible by Arthur Miller recognized this quote as a true statement and I agree to the contribution made by these authors in validating the quote. In To Kill A Mockingbird, Harper Lee symbolized Jem and Scout as character with fear and innocence . Jem and Scout were always intimidated by Boo Radley because of the stories they heard about him, they believed he is a malevolent phantom who eat squirrels and
