Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 496.... large effect
on the lives of Romeo and Juliet, by killing Mercutio.

Claudius he takes it, but by then it was too late. Hamlet was killed as

In a recent survey, violent scenes in nonfictional shows went up 150% and in
fictional shows they went up 39%. The overall violence went up 41%.
What about the V-chip? The chip that would block out violence
and sex on TV. But is that offending people's freedom of speech? Who would
choose to use the V-chip? The government can't force people to use it, so how
could they re-enforce its use?
In conclusion, I think it is almost impossible to erase violence
by ridding the world .....

Macbeth: A Man Of Established Character
Number of pages: 7 | Number of words: 1827.... euphoria which follows. He also rejoices no doubt in the success
which crowns his efforts in battle - and so on. He may even conceived of the
proper motive which should energize back of his great deed:
The service and the loyalty I owe, In doing it, pays itself. But while he
destroys the king's enemies, such motives work but dimly at best and are
obscured in his consciousness by more vigorous urges. In the main, as we have
said, his nature violently demands rewards: he fights valiantly in order that he
may be reported in such terms a "valour's minion" and "Bellona's bridegro .....
