Find" O'Conner puts me in a setting of a lower
middle class family with a domineering mother,
grandmother and a whinny mother-in-law. I tend to

Utah Blaine Book Report

In this book there were very few significant
quotes. I struggled to find ten. One of them is,
Lifes to important to lose it over this... ranch.
This was said by Joe Neal. I agree with this
because life it to important to risk over any
material thing unless it is another life. Another
quote is Good does not always win over evil. This
was said by Utah Blaine when he was telling a
story about a friend that had been killed and the
killer got away with no consequences. I do not
agree with this quote....

Robert E Lee Killer Angels

Drive half an hour north of Washington, D. C. and
you will find verdant rolling hills and flat, rich
farmland, broken here and there by granite
outcroppings and dark poplar forests. A place of
great beauty and serenity. Close your eyes a
moment, efface the houses and stores and gas
stations from your mind's eye, and it looks pretty
much as it did in July, 1863. That summer its
green fields were stained red with the blood of
50, 000 Americans dead and wounded. 50, 000. In

Oedipus Rex By Sophocles Robert Fitzgerald
1,143 words
Oedipus Rex, by Sophocles, (as translated by
Dudley Fitts and Robert Fitzgerald), is replete
with dramatic devices - one of which is known as
Sophoclean Irony. Sophoclean Irony can be divided
into two terms: unconscious and conscious irony.
Unconscious irony occurs when a character speaks
what he believes is the truth, but the audience

that it is not. Conscious irony is evident when a
character knows the truth but is reluctant to
reveal it: thus, he...
