Washington D C Brendon John Feel
760 wordsThere are some people out there who are genuinely great people. Sometimes it is easier for me to pick out the negative in others. It was impossible for me to do that when I met Brendon John Collins. He was beaming with beautiful qualities. After a few days I came to adore just how silly, loving, and ambitious he is. For a grown man Brendon is the silliest I have ever met. My co-workers would crack up when they found the all too familiar post-it notes Brendon left laying around. Scribbled on them...

Poor Country Great Leaders
485 wordsI am going to compare two great leaders. One from this century, and one from the reign of Caesar. It is interesting to see how through out history that all the great dictators thought alike.

Act 4 Scene 1 Part Of The Play
973 wordsWhen we first hear about Macbeth from the sergeants report, we are led to believe that he is very much a person who does only what he believes is right. Furthermore, when he first appears in the play, his fellow nobleman, Banquo, accompanies him. Given this, we would think that he does what is right, and makes all his own decisions.
