" I think that this quote is saying that we need to be able to handle our own issues and learn about ourselves before we can deal with others. Another step I took was have all of my family members look at my project and paper to give me their input on what they like and what I need to change. I also looked up little things that I thought
In this quote, William Shakespeare is portraying the importance of self trueness. Over everything else, people should only be true to themselves. Today, it is very common for people to try and impress others by changing their own ethics. If a person has to change the way they act to make someone like them, that person should not be around those types of individuals. Only one person can really make himself or herself happy, and that is their own self.
A student, Destiny Orihuela claims that the said quotation applies perfectly to Sylvia and Sammy. The two characters do support the adage as Orihuela claims. Sylvia and Sammy look down on others and believe themselves to be better, the two will not admit they are ever wrong
It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.” This quotation means that friendship is can be good, and bad. Understanding one another through good, and bad, but allowing the other to get hurt causes greater problems.
This quote is important to me because you can’t have a bad attitude because the call didn’t go your way. You have to embrace it and make the next play or pitch so they have to call it your
If you know the terrible things, you can learn from people’s mistakes. “Live, for my Chaya. For all our Chayas. Live. And remember.”
A huge moment that reflects why this theme leaves such a big impact on me was when I got really upset in elementary school and started crying uncontrollably from my partner criticizing me for something I was struggling with. However, despite the fact that I barely whispered more than three sentences a day, half my class stood up for me, which resonates deeply with me knowing that kids that young were able to define such strong traits within themselves to use, while other adults struggle to show an ounce of those characteristics. A lot of the time it is easier said than done when you see something wrong but don’t do anything about it. In elementary school, my judgment was often clouded and didn’t always lead to me making the right choices such as leaving my brothers in tears because I didn’t want to be with him one afternoon. I thought that if I would do it more often, it would toughen him up and he would avoid annoying me.
William Shakespeare’s Much Ado About Nothing is set in the Elizabethan period. Honor during the period was established by a male’s social status/reputation, a woman’s ability to control their sexuality/purity, and a woman’s association with their father and husband. In the Elizabethan society, a man is honorable when they have shown courage and have a high social status. A woman's chastity is the most vital part of a woman and shows her honor.
The book Wonder by R.J. Palacio was filled with eye opening precepts. As I read the book I felt that one precept stood out most of all. This was the September precept “When given the choice between being right or being kind, choose kind.”- Dr. Wayne Dyer. I fell this means that you should choose kindness over the ability to be right.
While creating my rhetorical analysis paper I used all of my typical writing processes. I began this assignment by selecting a commercial that I thought would be the most appealing in the superbowl. After selecting my commercial I did some research at the library using EBSCOhost. I then created an outline on what my paper would be about and pieced all of its parts together. In the future I will try to recieve help earlier on because at first I struggled to understand what the purpose of the paper was.
“Stand up for what is right, even if you are standing alone” is a quote by Suzy Kassen. This is a major theme in the book To Kill a Mockingbird. Many people in life find it extremely hard to stand up for what is right because they may be going against peers and family. For a person, it takes great courage to do this but it gives them a sense that they are doing the right thing. The author, Harper Lee, disseminates the importance of standing up for yourself and what is right in many different ways.
I chose the aphorism “Do as I say, not as I do.” and I disagree with this aphorism for a few reasons, but first I’ll explain what it means. “Do as I say, not as I do.” means that you want someone to follow your verbal instructions instead of following your example. One could argue that if you could be better off to listen to them instead of following their example, but if their example is that bad then why would you listen to them in the first place, so I am disagreeing as if someone respectable is making this claim. My biggest disagreement is that it seems hypocritical for someone to not practice what they preach.
This quote means that you never know somebody fully, unless you take their place and adapt to the person's life characteristics. This matters because you can never know what somebody is persecuted about, praised for, expected of, and stuck with. So, you shouldn’t judge someone because you can misinterpret them for who they really
Aphorisms are short, clever statements that are usually true and can sometimes be hard to understand. Some aphorisms include “don’t judge a book by its cover,” “it takes two to tango,” and “every man has his price.” The third one mentioned is the one that is going to be talked about because of its relevancy to nearly everyone. The aphorism “every man has his price” is a pretty true statement for virtually any era as well, whether it is in a fictitious book or in actual history. This aphorism is more self-explanatory than other aphorisms.
As a kid, my parents always taught me to stand up for myself and others. Basically they told me I always need to kindly put someone in their place. Whether I was part of the problem or not. As quoted, “If you see or hear something you don’t think is kind, saying nothing is just as bad as partaking. Don’t be afraid to stand up for someone in the same way you hope someone would stand up for you.
