.... I guess I just didn’t realize.”(87) Ruth is going to destroy this baby because she feels that she and Walter just do not have enough money to support another family member, and feels that she and Walter will only bring the baby into a world of fighting. Beneatha also has influence on Ruth’s decision by asking, “… where is he going to live? On the roof?”(58). Beneatha feels that if Ruth has another baby it would just complicate the living situation, which is strenuous enough as it is. Later, even with all of this negative energy, Ruth comes t .....

.... towards him. Gene thought that everything Finny did was perfect, which just upset Gene all the more. Finny was so perfect that he didn't care what others thought, like when Finny wore a pink shirt as an emblem after the bombing of central Europe. " '...Pink! It makes you look like a fairy!' 'Does it?' He used this preoccupied tone when he was thinking of something more interesting than what you had said." One time Finny and Gene were at the swimming pool when Finny noticed that a boy named A. Hopkins Parker had the record for the 100 yards free style. When Finny realized tha .....

.... seeing fire, then she got beat for screaming fire and they tied her up, if they would’ve taken her to the hospital she would’ve been killed. What as freaky was how she could see that there were big flames and fires in their near destiny. Eliezer’s Father never showed any emotion until their town was effects by the Nazis. He was strength for the Jewish community. He helped everyone prepare to be evacuated. He was a leader and he helped him neighbors and friends as much as he could. I knew when he was in the back yard talking while they were in the ghetto that something bad .....

.... when Ellison was three. Ellison’s mother enlisted blacks into the Socialist Party and was also a domestic worker. In the early 1930s, Ellison won a scholarship to Alabama’s Tuskegee Institute, where he studied music until 1936(Busby 10). Later, to earn money for his education (after a mix-up regarding his scholarship), he traveled to New York, where he met Richard Wright and became involved in the Federal Writer’s Project. Encouraged to write a review for New Challenge, a publication edited by Wright, Ellison began composing essays and stories focusing on the strength of th .....

.... man that will do anything to make her wrong. Eventually she realizes he is playing a mind game with her. If she does what he says and agrees with him, even if she knows he’s wrong, she will get what she wants, a loving husband, a nice home, nice clothes, food and a warm bed to sleep in. In a way she manipulates him into thinking he has won when really they are both equal. Kate’s independence is overwhelming for the sixteenth century. Shakespeare had a very wild imagination, he creates a woman who would be respected today but is so extroverted that in it’s day and age it was .....

.... then. The “original paraphernalia” is stated to have been lost and replaced by the black box they used at the time before Old Man Warner was born. Even with a stickler over tradition around, the story plot shows that things would change with time. Mr. Summers used paper slips to draw instead of wood chips. His excuse for the change was the increase in population and lack of space in the black box for “all those wood chips.” Therefore, they did modernize part of the tradition; they just did not question the meaning and modernize it in the more significant areas. At one tim .....

.... her emotions for her family's benefit. Her family didn't feel anything she didn't feel. If she felt fear, the family did too. "Since old Tom and the children could not know hurt or fear unless she acknowledged hurt and fear, she had practiced denying them in herself." She always kept calm in front of the family because she knew if she showed fear, she would lose control of the family. She also knows her family inside and out. She knows the inner need of each member of the family. She knows if Pa is defeated, the family will collapse so she makes sure he doesn't. She k .....

.... and just done away with books completely. To Bradbury this was almost the same as what was going on around him, as he wrote in his Coda, "There is more than one way to burn a book. And the world is full of people running about with lit matches. Every minority...feels it has the will, the right, the duty to douse the kerosene, light the fuse." To Bradbury ripping a page or even a paragraph from a book was one of the worst sins imaginable. One of the main characters in this book was named Faber, he was an elderly man who loved books but was too cowardly to join the undergrou .....
