John The Savage Bernard Marx
1,590 words
Some drugs dull, stupefy and sedate. Others
sharpen, animate and intensify. After taking soma,
one can apparently drift pleasantly off to sleep.
Bernard Marx, for instance, takes four tablets of
soma to pass away a long plane journey to the
Reservation in New Mexico. When they arrive at the
Reservation, Bernard's companion, Lenin, swallows
half a gramme of soma when she begins to tire of
the Warden's lecture, "with the result that she
could now sit, serenely not listening, thinking of

Relationship With God Older Brother
1,544 words
Jacob was born to be a deceiver. He came out of
Rebekah's womb "grasping the heel" of his older
brother Esau, setting the pattern of deception his
life would soon take. But he was also born of
God's promise, born to be the father of Nations
and revered by his people. How can a trickster
inherit such a high place of esteem without
earning God's approval through pious prayer and
obedience? Elijah the prophet was also special to
God; but it was not his patronage that was highly
valued, it was his h...

Life of African Americans in the period after the
civil war was stimulatingly difficult. Among the
host of challenges were the Black codes which made
their life no better than it was before the civil
war. The Congress promised to emancipate African
Americans from slavery, but it appeared as if
blacks were still deprived of their basic rights.
They still did not achieve the status equal to
that of the whites. During this time of political
unrest two prominent African American

Kurtz Last Words Good Or Evil

... the terms 'enemy' and 'criminals' to the
natives. In actuality, they are simply "bewildered
and helpless victims... and moribund shadows"
(Berthoud. 46). Clearly, the injustice done by the
simple misnaming of someone is unbelievable. After
witnessing all of these names which bare no true
meaning, as well as possibly degrade a person's
character, Marlow understands that he can not
continue in his former ways of mindlessly giving
random names to something in fear of diminishing
the essence of ...

William Shakespeare is himself a man of mystery.
Many facts myths exists about him, as if to say he
