I believe, Mr. Gatsby should win the award for “The Most Determined Person.” By determined, I mean he is steadfast in achieving a goal despite difficulty or delay. Some critics will state he represents The American Dream, yet he is much more than that. Set in New York during the 1920s, the novel is told from the perspective of Nick Carraway, who is the new neighbor to Mr. Gatsby. Gatsby is introduced as a very wealthy but mysterious man.

Steve jobs open the speech by a compliment for the students on Stanford University “I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world.” First, he praises University by saying on of the finest University. He follows that showing the student’s humility by admitting he never graduated any kind of college, in few seconds, Jobs gave the student’s a very good reason to be proud. Steve jobs introduce the speech by using pathos because it appeals to the audience’s emotions. Steve jobs starts the speech in a humoristic way by telling the audience “Truth be told, this is the closest I 've ever gotten to a college graduation”.

Success is overrated. When people think of success they think of people like Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, but in Charles Dickens’ Great Expectations Miss Havisham and Joe are two of the most successful people in the book. My definition of success is being able to look back on your life and say it been worth living and finding happiness in your life. Throughout Joe’s life, he learns to be content with his life from a young age and always sticks to his morals. Miss Havisham gets her revenge on men but also gets forgiven for it.

The first page explains that the future generations might take interest in his life in account of having emerged from the state of “affluence and same degree of reputation in the world” (Perkins). Franklin the printer and self-made man became a figure of American History. He was also unique in the way that he followed 13 virtues that are listed in his autobiography as: (Temperance, silence, order, frugality, industry, sincerity, justice, moderation, claimless, tranquility, chasisity, and Humidity).

Why Millennials Will Save Us All.” Throughout his article, Stein defends millennials and their new way of life against some of the older closed­minded generations. Stein does not only give his opinions about the matter, but also presents his case using rhetorical appeals of ethos, logos, and pathos. Joel Stein keeps his reasonings unbiased because he is very aware of what the older generations think and also understands why millennials live the lifestyles they do. Overall, Stein is successful in argument that millennials can be the best new generation of all

you are precious and special. Being top of your class merely confirms this. But you can vanquish the demons only when you are convinced of your own worth.” (181). After this encouragement, Yen Mah vows even more than before to keep up her prestige grades to give honor to her grandfather.

By the end of this epic, Odysseus has learned to temper his pride with patience in others. This leads him to make all the right decisions in the end and everything turns out great for Odysseus and his family.

He has become a better king and a better husband than he could have ever been without his struggle

“I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation.” (Martin Luther King) This was the penning statement of the speech learnt or well known by anyone studying or interested in literature or history. “I Have Dream” without a doubt is rightfully one of the bet delivered over time. While his opening statement spoke of making a historical day out of the demonstration, Martin Luther King was unaware that his delivery would be equally if not more historical than the event itself in the literature arena and even more, the field of rhetoric.

Members of the Search Committee: As a member of the Harvard Law School Class of 1981, I recommend that Professor David Wilkins '80 be named to replace Martha Minow as HLS Dean. I have known David since we were both students at HLS. Back then, I was struck by his gregarious and effervescent personality; he was a real "people" person. Now, almost four decades later, I am compelled to recommend David as Dean precisely because he is such a people person, a quality that motivates him to identify issues and take action that an ordinary person would not, and which makes him uniquely qualified to lead the Law School. For a number of years, I practiced higher education law, and defended state universities in tenure disputes.

It makes perfect sense that Horace Mann’s forward thinking philosophies in education and social reform attracted particular mindsets of students who wanted a liberal college lifestyle. The writings suggest, even as early as the late 1850’s, that students who came from all over the country had determination, and could be problematic. The students’ mindsets, no doubt, impacted the small village of Yellow Springs throughout its history. Still, Antioch College is proud of its students who participate in institutional decision-making and for being one of the “first to make a commitment to community

By overcoming the challenge of getting a college education, I experiences an outstanding feeling of personal fulfillment. Other who constantly talking about going to college don 't get the satisfaction of achieving the task. By actually attending is the first step on the path to further

White is associated with innocence and purity. In The Great Gatsby, Fitzgerald describes Daisy with the word white to represent her innocence and girlhood many times. When we first meet Daisy, she is with Jordan and “they [are] both in white,” (Fitzgerald 10) in “a cheerful red and white Georgian Colonial mansion,” (Fitzgerald 9) surrounded in a pure, white room. Right from the beginning of the novel, Daisy is portrayed as a virtuous woman. She says her “white girlhood [with Jordan] was passed together [in Louisville].

Everyone has moments where they desire to revisit the past- correct a mistake, relive the excitement, change what could have been. We all have moments like that. It might be a fleeting feeling or a consistently recurring thought, but seldom do we dedicate ourselves to the unattainable and changing times. In the novel The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald, the plight of Jay Gatsby and his attempt to bring back the past is explored. He aggressively, or arguably, passionately fights to regain what once was.
