Fiend Like Queen Lady Macbeth
683 words
Malcolm calls Macbeth a butcher, someone who kills
without a conscience and without a reason. He also
describes Lady Macbeth as a fiend like queen which
means one with only evil in her character. Neither
Macbeth nor Lady Macbeth fit these descriptions.
These descriptions are too simplistic but both
characters are more complex. Macbeth at the
beginning of the play was not a butcher. He killed
many enemies in the war but not one in cold blood.
Macbeth was a highly regarded kinsman and Thane.
For b...

Supposed To Live Love
619 words
Love? What is that, I often find myself wondering?
About ten years ago I would have said its when a
prince comes in his bright and shining armor to
rescue a damsel in distress. He would pick her up
on his white horse and carry her into the sunset
to his castle where theyd marry and live happily

unfortunately I had to grow up and I then of
course stopped believing. Then through my life I
saw how love ...

How To Make A Grand Entrance
1,421 words
A great man once said, first impressions last. But
as I have no idea who this man was, I think he
himself was having a little trouble giving a good
lasting impression. But why? And what makes a good
first impression? Comedy? Tragedy? I assume not
history, as the most boring parts in my life have
been over written in my memory. I took this
question as my duty, nay, my purpose to find the
answer. I was preparing for a speech on the next
night and figured I was sure to win with an
entrance that cou...

darker side of human nature. When Francis Ford
Coppola released the eye-opening film Apocalypse
Now, he expanded on and delved deeper into this
theme. Despite some differences between Heart of
Darkness and Apocalypse Now, the meanings of the
symbols in each are mutual and the overall purpose
is parallel: to show the horror of the dark side

internal struggle with good and evil. Heart of
