Dehumanization and food was a big influence on creating imagery in Wiesel 's memoir. One of the most impactful images is fire. In the train cart, Madame Schachter becomes overwhelmed and starts to scream about a huge fire that will kill them. But unfortunately she was right . “Women to the left and men the right” women and children were often sent straight to the gas chambers as they arrived at Auschwitz .
To accomplish something is to achieve a goal, we accomplish more if we are always doing something. No matter if that something is as small as picking up a piece of trash off the ground.

Sometimes we must interfere” (8). We have to stand up for our beliefs even at the toughest times and do what we know is right. Speaking up
For he declared that “It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than speak out and remove all doubt”. Lincoln illustrates that the less that is being spoken the more ahead that person is. When speaking without thinking, it often leads to saying things that weren't meant to be said.

The mind-body philosophies try to explain the way a person’s mental state and processes are linked to the physical state. The core of the mind and body is that individuals have a biased experience of an inner life that appears detached from the physical world. Although they are separated, they need to work together in some way. Individuals may appear to have physical properties and mental properties.
I will explore this question by looking at how this question has developed into two key schools of thought: Dualism and Monism. Dualism states that the mind is not physical and exists separately while Monism states that the mind and body are not separate. There are arguments for both theories and these dichotomous ideas have brought to light the mind-body problem, which I will analyse below. There are sub-forms of both schools of thought and one of the key sub-schools of thought under Dualism which I will discuss is Interactionism; that the mind and body are separate but both influence each other The Mind-Body Debate Rene Decartes believed that the mind
