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....

Three Stages Pips Life
253 wordsDickens seems to have a highly developed sense of theatre, and this is proven countless times in his works.

Dickens brings down the curtain at the end of the first stage with a few very powerful paragraphs. These paragraphs illustrate Pips feeling of loss, loneliness, and even dejection, and describe the partin...

One Of The Greatest Blue Collar
1,525 wordsOne of the biggest problems I have with our society today is in sports. Dont get me wrong, I love sports. I love to watch the competition and seeing these men doing seemingly superhuman feats. The problem I have with sports is the over-commercialization and over-hyping of athletes by their agents, and themselves. I think that it is absolutely sick how so many athletes are getting paid so much for what they do. I did say that they performed difficult athletic feats, but a couple of events a week ...
