.... However, that one trait did not alone take away his position of high authority. Oedipus displayed anger throughout the whole story, which did not help him at all. During the story, we learn of Oedipus' anger as he knocked a passerby at the meeting of the three highways; "I struck him in my rage". Later, this passerby whom he angrily and quickly killed, was revealed to be Laios, Oedipus' father. Oedipus' anger also quickly shifted his judgement of Teiresias. "We are in your[Teiresias] hands. There is no fairer duty", Oedipus' respect for Teiresias quickly changed as .....

.... as Jesus was exalted by many for what he stood for was supposed to be , Casy was hailed and respected by many for simply being a preacher. Casy and Jesus both saw a common goodness in the average man and saw every person as holy. Both Christ and Casy faced struggles between their ideals versus the real world. (Despite Casy's honesty, goodness, and loyalty to all men, he would not earn a meal or warm place to stay. Although Jesus had many followers, still others opposed his preaching until the very end. ) These prophets attempted to disengage man from the cares of the world and .....

.... all the knowledge that is portrayed in the works, the author must have accomplished many things. These including a superior education, from what we know of "Shakespeare", this was not a possibility.(Bethell 46) We do not even know if Shakespeare has ever written anything in his life, Nor do we know that he was paid for writing these works. The man Shakespeare does not even make a claim that he is the author.(Bethell 50) He may not have been able to write the simplest thing of all, His own name.(Hayes 1D) Its not how little we know about Shakespeare that causes confusion .....

.... by ambition. MacBeth chooses to overthrow King Duncan for the sole purpose of his own political gain. He even admits that he "[has] no spur/ To prick the sides of [his] intent, but only/ Vaulting ambition, which o’erleaps itself/ And falls on th’other" (Act I, sc. 7). Despite many other good reasons for overthrowing a king, such as for the good of the state or if the king is infringing on the people’s rights, MacBeth claims only selfish intentions. Like MacBeth, Kurtz, too, starts his road to evil with ambition. Kurtz, in order to earn his Intended’s hand, goes to Africa .....

.... in a place like this", Billy told himself. He failed to investigate any further when the incredibly cheap price was revealed. Why would such an exceptional environment be so inexpensive? He failed to question this. "There were no other hats or coats in the hall. There were no umbrellas, no walkingsticks-nothing." With such a reasonable rate, why wouldn't others be reaping the benefits? Again he failed to question the abnormality. As he began getting situated into his living arrangement, the observation of the landlady being a little "dotty" enters Billy's mind, "but at .....

.... of the trees sounds like they are crying in the dark. "Planks creaked and she could distinguish the sounds of object being knocked over." (Pg. 358) The planks sounds like they are scratching on the wall as if it's going to tear its way in. The acts like people around her. Another image that Dollarhide uses is the house. We quickly see how Dollarhide identifies the house as a living thing. "Now the house seemed to shudder around her like something alive." (Pg. 357) The house floats free struggles up from the clay, and swings out slowly with the pull of the river. .....

.... community allows people to sample available music in order for them to decide what to purchase in the real world. First I’d like to look at the legality of downloading copyrighted music. Obviously it is not legal as the courts have shut down Napster for this very reason. Congressman Steve Rothman of New Jersey believes there is no middle ground in the issue saying that “it is pure and simple theft…” (Costs 31). “If you take something from someone who wishes you not to, you’ve stolen it” (Clay). That’s easy enough, but should the music industry support free music on the .....

.... of life. He has all the beauty of a child in him, but then Lord Henry enters into the picture with his influential goal for life and its meaning. “Don’t spoil him. Don’t try to influence him. Your influence would be bad.” Lord Henry taunts Dorian and continues to remind him of all the sin that is building up and that even though his body is not aging, his soul is deteriorating fast. Lord Henry is the beginning of his corruption, but he isn’t the entire reason for this development. Sibyl Vane’s death happened on the verge of his t .....
