Protecting Our Lands Valuable Purpose In Keeping Balance Animals
831 wordsAs a woman and animal lover, I could understand Joy William's feelings and motives in The Killing Game. Ms. William's believe that hunting or killing of animals is "murder, murder, murder."

Birds Of Prey Slave Revolt
1,044 wordsThe character of Smerdyakov in Dostoevsky's Brothers Karamazov appears to me to epitomize Nietzsche's idea of the slave revolt.

Much like Nietzsche's slave revolt, where there is an inversion of power, and the weakling comes ou...
