65 Million Years South America
1,685 words
Megatherium Geology is the study of Earth. It
examines Earths substances, forms, processes and
history. Geology also gives start to all other
sciences making them work. The farther we take a
geological question, the more other sciences come
into action. If one brings up the question of
geology, the first thought appears is rocks. But
rocks are found to be not just stones. These rocks
are stories. To figure out the Earth, rocks are
where to start. If one takes a closer look at
them, she or he may...

Love And Hate Racial Hatred
1,031 words
Love and Hate Emotions are the strongest feelings
that come to life through our highest highs and
our lowest lows. The two most extreme emotions
known to man are love and hate. As experience has
taught me, Love conquers all. With love, you can
do anything. The power of love is stronger than
hate because love gets you where you want to go
and hate only brings pain and sorrow in its wake.
When we begin to read Wuthering Heights, we begin
to realize that the story is built around love.

Numerous Legs Gregor Story

Analyzing The Metamorphosis Upon first reading The
Metamorphosis, a person might think the author is
a little strange for writing such a story. It
seems to defy anything rational, yet it has been
regarded as a masterpiece in literature. I,
myself, still wonder how Kafka could write such a
great story that is, in my opinion, extremely
bazaar and, well, weird. And that is putting it
lightly. In the beginning of the story, Kafka
abruptly brings us into the sad life of a
traveling salesman, named Gr...

Lady Catherine De Bourgh Pride And Prejudice
869 words
The Value of Letters in Pride and Prejudice In
writing, one can express feelings they can never
convey aloud. Letters allow one to reveal their
thoughts more personally and intimately than they
can in person. Staring at a blank page of paper is
definitely less intimidating than looking into
someone? s eyes. Communication is such an
important vitality, and letter-writing the lacks
loss of words, stuttering, awkward silences, and
uneasiness that conversations can sometimes carry.

Means To An End Peace Of Mind
1,127 words
Kan The principle of private happiness states that
an individual? s prosperity is weighed in
proportion to that person? s good conduct. In
short, one? s peace of mind is empirically
measured by how virtuous one is towards others and
to himself. Kant? s objection to ethical theories
that use this idea emanates from the fact that it
extends human reason, one that determines good
will and good conduct, outwards instead of
inwards, reason being automatic, inherent in an
individual. The above doctrin...

Lies In The Fact King Lear
1,125 words
Shakespeare's dynamic use of irony in King Lear
aids the microcosmic illustration of not only 16
th century Britain, but of all times and places.
The theme that best develops this illustration is
the discussion of fools and their foolishness.
This discussion allows Shakespeare not only to
portray human nature, but also to elicit a sort of
Socratic introspection into the nature of
society's own ignorance as well. One type of fool
that Shakespeare involves in King Lear is the
immoral fool. Edmund,...

through out the book by temptation. When on this
