Uncle Frank Young Age Smoke
1,052 words
The brilliant person who spent their time sitting
around and one day decided to pick up some of the
tobacco they were growing and smoke it must have
been out of their mind. This has lead to millions
and millions of peoples addictions to, what is in
my opinion one of the worst things in the world,
cigarettes, or more specifically nicotine. Why
anyone would decide to start up this insanely
dirty and unhealthy habit is beyond me. Smoking is
a problem that affects people of all ages and
groups and l...

Cities when discussion starts about life
imprisonment at the party hosted by the banker; we

Individual Beliefs In Shooting An Elephant By Orwell
661 words
It's ironic how some individuals are willing to
push aside their moral beliefs in what is right or
wrong to gain acceptance. In Shooting An Elephant
by George Orwell we see how he puts all his true
beliefs to the side to gain some sort of closure
on the way the people view him. At times people
are put in complex situations where they have to
decide between whats right and wrong without
knowing the outcome. The building up of the
feeling of pressure starts with Orwell feeling
humiliated and disre...

Son Of A Bitch Ll Win Man

Men, this stuff we hear about America wanting to
stay out of the war, not wanting to fight, is a
lot of bullshit. Americans love to fight -
traditionally. All real Americans love the sting
and clash of battle. When you were kids, you all
admired the champion marble player; the fastest
runner; the big league ball players; the toughest
boxers. Americans love a winner and will not
tolerate a loser. Americans despise cowards.
Americans play to win - all the time. I wouldn't

Psychological Effect Studies Show

Like death and taxes, there is no escaping color.
It is ubiquitous. Yet what does it all mean? Why
are people more relaxed in green rooms? Why do
weightlifters do their best in blue gyms? It is a
well-known fact that color influences mood and
feeling in common experience, however, the field
of color psychology is still not well understood.
Research on the psychological aspects of color is
difficult for the mere reason that human emotions
are not very stable and the psychic make-up of

Heart Of Darkness Joseph Conrad
1,008 words
Heart of Darkness Heart of Darkness, by Joseph
Conrad is a fictional novel with an overflow of
symbolism. Throughout the entire novel Conrad uses
a plethora of simple colors, objects, and places
in order to clarify very complex meanings. By
doing this, Conrad is able to lure the reader into
a world unlike his or her own: the Congo River,
located in central Africa. Although the
interpretation of these symbols is so elaborate,
the simplicity of each makes it somewhat easy to
overlook. A few exampl...

Hawthorne Young Goodman Brown Nathaniel Hawthorne
841 words
Conformity, perhaps the most cumbersome of all
social pressures, appears many times throughout
Literature. For instance, in Nathaniel Hawthorne s
Young Goodman Brown, the element of conformity
appears, as an excuse for the main character to
engage in conduct that he realizes is wrong. In
Shirley Jackson s The Lottery, conformity appears
in a very different aspect. In this story, we
venture into a seemingly average village to learn
how the pressure to conform can be so powerful
that people, who w...

Yellow Wallpaper Nursery Room Illness

Charlotte Perkins Gilman is that solitary
confinement and exclusion from the public results
in insanity. The use of imagery and setting helps
illustrate this theme throughout the story. The
unnamed protagonist in this story suffers from a
nervous disorder which is enhanced by her feeling
of being trapped within a room. The setting of the

room with barred windows provides an image of
loneliness and seclu...

It is often said that science fiction is the
literature of change. When a culture is undergoing
a lot of changes due to scientific advances and
technological developments, and expects to undergo
more (Treitel 1). A large part of science fiction
appeal lies in its ability to convince the
audience of the believability of the world it
portrays (Fuller 1). Science fiction looks

Color Imagery Three Men

Carson McCullers used color symbolism in The
Jockey to show that power always triumphs over
weakness. The colors all portray how powerful the
three men are, and the colors show how weak the
