Both his actions and thoughts showed how jealous he was of Finny. The traits Phineas possessed were a major cause of the envy. Gene let his jealously overcome him, and ended up seriously injuring his “best friend”. To begin, Gene wanted Finny’s way of smooth-talking. There were many times when Phineas did something wrong and simply talked his way out of it.
Othello is a very gullible character and becomes immediately susceptible to any claims that he deems threatening in addition to his habit of skipping to conclusion abruptly , revealing the impact of his jealous nature. This is strongly elucidated as he personally decides to murder Desdemona purely based accumulated opinions and false evidence presented my Iago rather than real solid evidence “It is the cause, it is the cause, my soul. Let me not name it to you, you chaste stars, it is the cause. Yet I’ll not shed her blood”. This example clearlyexpresses that he still cannot fully comprehend Desdemona’s infidelity
The added use of “they” ultimately shows the loss or lack of identity held by these men in life or death. In addition, the regular rhyme scheme in the poem portrays the ongoing harshness and bitterness that Browning feels towards the display. Enjambment blurs the evenly spaced content which furthermore shows that Browning is confused about why brutality was allowed and continued to happen. In the sixth stanza, Browning puzzles over the causes of suicide: disillusioned idealism, the world’s cruelty, money and women. This is shown by “Money gets women, cards and dice Get money, and ill luck gets just The copper couch…”.
Set, your brother, is an evil man, who hates you and will do you harm (Osiris and Isis, 205)”. This proves that Isis knows Set is an evil man and she convinces Osiris not to go but he did not listen. Secondly, in the myth it states “Osiris, having no guile or bitterness in his own heart, believed others to be as himself, and with the words of confidence and cheer he tried to cast out the fear that troubled his wife; then, putting on his most splendid robes, he went in all trust and friendship to his brother’s banquet (Osiris and Isis, 205)”. This proves that even after Isis warns him about how Set will do him harm, he still goes. He fails to see the real truth about him.

Here and there savage dogs rushed upon him, but he bristled his neck-hair and snarled (for he was learning fast), and they let him go his way unmolested.” (Pg. 16). His neighbor steals Buck when the judge isn't home and ships him to Canada for money. When Buck arrives in Canada and his body must adapt to the tough toil of the reins; and Buck will need more food than the other dogs.
The collection of books that make up the novel is about Willa Cather’s idea of what and to what extent Jim Burden remembers. The novel is also said to be one that “lacks focus and abounds in irrelevancies” (Wells 1). This is a direct result from Cather’s inability to provide a consistent character portrayal throughout her novel. On the same note, My Antonia is said to have many “variations from a theme” (Wells 1). An example of that would be when Peter and Pavel, two lonesome Russian settlers, tell Jim and Antonia a tragic tale that horrifies the children.
He is doing this by being jealous, just like any other person would. Phoniness begins the structure of the book from the very beginning by Holden saying phony multiple times right off the bat. This gave Holden a sense that something is very wrong with the kid. Truthfully speaking there is nothing wrong with Holden because many people just act similar or just like Holden, and this would be normal of anyone who experiences trauma in their growing period to adulthood. Though, the only unlikable thing about Holden is he might judge people a little too much.
Because all your bastards want is more! Leave Britney alone!” With this quotations you can either feel sorry for the poor lad who makes a big scene about Britney and her privacy and on top of all he uploads it on Youtube.com.

Their sarcastic remarks to the powerless victim are evocative of the sarcasm Alex and his gang used on the victims that they beat and sometimes raped. Whilst Alex is suffering from the movie clips, Doctor Brodsky simply says ‘Excellent, excellent, excellent.’ Here, the Doctor is clearly portraying how he does not wish to show any sympathy towards helpless Alex, as he did do to his previous victims. The detail in which Alex goes into whilst in distress is extremely intense and vivid. Alex says ‘I was sweating a malenky bit with the pain in my guts and a horrible thirst and my gulliver going throb throb throb.’ For me, the repetition of the word ‘and’ explains to the reader just how many feelings of pain and discontent Alex is going through. Words such as ‘sweating’ ‘guts’ and ‘thirst’ are all words that we associate with labour and hard work and that is exactly what Alex seems to be going through.
