This quote shows that Mattie enjoys being in Ethan’s company and really trusts

Watching the movie Temple Grandin, really opened my eyes to how amazing the human mind can be. She never let her autism hinder just how special her mind was. She had a gift, and used it as such. It was really inspiring to know she didn’t see herself less than anyone else just because of her autism. She says “different, not less” and there is so much truth to this simple quote.

Rhodopis’s resourcefulness manifests itself in, not only her physical labor, but in her use of song to stay optimistic, while Raisel’s ingenuity is displayed when she tells the rabbi’s son a riddle while disguised as Queen Esther at a Purim celebration. Because both of these women live in patriarchal societies, there is little they could do to actively change their respective fates but to use the seemingly insignificant skills that they possess. Though they possess these talents, Rhodipos and Raisel also gain status through divine intervention. Both stories insist that women are not to be complex creatures, but rather pawns that are at the will and whim of the men and the divine entities that surround them, both ideas being perpetuated by each of their

If an individual has a vigorous and encouraging outlook on something, it will help not to focus on the ominous events going on in their life. In “The Diary of a Young Girl” the author states, “But as you can see, Kitty, I 'm still alive, and that 's the main thing” (Frank). Since Anne had a positive attitude about the situation she was in, it helped her realize that she should be thankful for the little things. It also helped her to forget about the hardships and celebrate the jubilant times. In “Dear Miss Breed” the author states as she was on her way to a Japanese internment camp, “One of the most beautiful scenery was when crossing a bridge which was right above the Colorado River” (Oppenheim).

She was born in June 12,1929 in Frankfurt, Germany. Her full name was Annelies Marie Frank (Polak 453). Others thought Anne was happy, talkative, and spunky, but on the inside she felt conflicted. However, she was very hopeful that the war would end and life could return to normal. She believed that people were still truly good despite the war, as shown in her quote.

The smile is the fake happiness created by Mildred to make herself believe she has a great life and nothing to complain or worry about. Under the thin layer or happiness she puts over herself lies the true feeling she buries away to never see: sadness and emptiness. The television shows Mildred watches supports her with the belief that she is content with life and she has the right to feel happy all day; however, under that happiness lies her true pain. Mildred knows, deep down, her life is insignificant, but her fake happiness over shadows the pain too much to know the truth within herself. When the pain inside acts on Mildred, she subconsciously takes over 30 pills in an attempt to commit suicide.

Her spirit was high, though not rough, and qualified by a heart sensitive and lively to excess in its affections. That capacity for intense attachments reminded me of her mother: still she did not resemble her: for she could be soft and mild as a dove, and she had a gentle voice and pensive expression: her anger was never furious; her love never fierce: it was deep and
