.... right’ I said, ‘I’ m glad it’s a girl. And I hope she’ ll be a fool- that’s the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool’” (Fitzgerald 21). These statements explain her opinion on how females should be, and also shows the insincerity in her personality. Daisy is also very confused about what she wants.

.... they never stopped trying to reach their dream. This made me think that if they could work hard for there dream why can't I. It showed me that it does not matter were you come from or what you do, it is okay to dream and work as hard as you can to reach it . For all it shows for friendship and loyalty it also shows how sometimes you have to do things you never thought you would do. For example in the end when George is forced to shoot Lennie in the head you would never have thought he would do that, but you can see that under the circumstances he had no other choice. He only .....

.... left her babies during the war. June's mother felt that since she had failed as a mother to her first babies she had failed as a person.

.... the right to live with the socially prudent. According to Kevstin Shands, Piercy says: "It is primarily a novel about Connie. There's a lot about social injustice in it, and about how a woman stops hating herself and becomes able to love herself enough to fight for her own survival" (66).

To see how the mother theme is woven throughout the story one must observe how Connie .....

.... that the other is a bad person, they find each others good points online or by post. This is shown in The Shop Around the Corner in a quote from Klara, who says to Kralik, "Why, I could show you letters that would open your eyes.

The same basic statement is made by Kathleen to Joe in You've Got Mail, where she remarks, "The man who is coming here tonight is completely unlike you. There is not a cruel or ungenerous bone in his body." .....

.... heaven; contingent of course on the fact that you were a Christian. “Yet in a moment, before we had reached the end of the first year of a friendship….you took him from this world (Confessions, 75).” “When all hope of saving him was lost, he was baptized as he lay unconscious (Confessions, 75).” This passage about e’s friend helps to illustrate that as death drew near in Augustine’s time, thoughts went to the after life in heaven. This hypothesis is furthered when Augustine writes about the death of his mother. “And so on t .....
