Lack Of Self-Reliance Among The Victims Of The Pips Analysis

Had I changed so much? So quickly?” (Wiesel 37). This quote shows that Elie’s greatest fear, even if he does not realize it is his fear of death; He fears losing his father but, it does not change the fact that he is driven by survival. The last time this happens is just before his father dies and Elie finds himself unchanged, still unable to give up his fear.

For example if I quote this line from The Outsiders: “Greaser, greaser, greaser, o victim of environment, underprivileged…” (Page 136), we can link it to the characters in The Lesser Blessed. The Greasers are limited because they are poor, they do not share the same privileges as the Socs, and so they do what they can with what they have. These characters are in a similar situation: their environment limits their potential. Therefore they have limited choices, often ranging between violence, sex, and drugs.

Near the end of the book on page 106 it says “‘Why’ said Montag slowly ‘we’re stopped in front of my house.’” Montag being a fireman makes this ironic because of his pursuit of knowledge was his downfall. The point is that he went against the world he knew to find out that the world he got in return was worst. At the beginning of the book “It was a pleasure to burn.” Montag thinking this at the very beginning without knowledge he truly believes it is a pleasure to burn.

But at that moment he felt willing to change, because he lived a sinful life, and ask God to save him, a dramatic moment where he felt lost and asked for mercy. Everyman realized that his fortune material had no value and that it was more important the fortune of God. Everyman acts representing humanity, fighting for morality inside, although he thinks that death is evil because it comes from hell. Death is ironically a messenger of God. Everyman had discovered that while he was successful in life, the afterlife was a different story because his wealth could not go with him or count in the Book of life.

The narrator believes himself to be very intelligent and clever when he goes into the old man’s room at midnight. Poe’s word choice of “caution” and “how wisely” represents the man’s view of his own sanity. Yet the act he performs and the reasoning behind his murderous intention convinces the reader that the narrator has lost his sanity. He plots and is driven to kill a man after claiming, “ I loved the old man.

The Introduction of Montag When we are introduced to the protagonist, Guy Montag, he is burning the remains of a house, describing how, “It was a pleasure to burn.” (1). In the beginning, we are shown just how much Guy Montag loves his job, his personality is also shown to us as readers as irresponsible. As we later find out from Captain Beatty, fire is, “...clean, quick, sure…” (109). Put into other words, Captain Beatty is saying fire is basically getting rid of responsibility, which is why it attracts Montag.

The light of the fire he burns acting as a purity to reincarnate IM. He is able to break apart the darkness; he leaves behind his inability to see and begins living in the light of his own decisions: “And my problem was that I always tried to go everyone’s way but my own” (573). IM has finally realized that his fault was senselessly following other’s ideas, leading to exactly to where he is now. In the act of burning his belongings, IM is taking a meaningful step away from his past. He is separating himself from all the prejudices and stereotypes he had subjected himself

Evry body feels sorry at the factery and I dont want that eather” (Keyes 209). Unknown to Charlie, many of his coworkers and friends had already reached the conclusion that he would ineluctably die.

Instead, he knew what he had done and he did not brag. This shows modesty in one of its highest forms. Brave people can be inspiring. A loyal friend can be comforting.

It was wrong for the doctors not to tell Charlie the risks of the surgery because one of them was him dying. Charlie realized the horrible mistake he made, and would probably end up paying for it, even though it was the doctor’s fault. Charlie had no regrets for having the surgery done to him, because he achieved his goal of becoming smart. Before Charlie started to regress, he tried to correct what went wrong with the surgery because he was the only one in the institute who could. Charlie knew that he was happier when he was ignorant, because he could not see how cruel the world actually was.

On page 47, he explains that he is not a murderer because he gives his victims fair warning by “snapping the twig,” before he appears. Likewise, I liked Brent’s speech on page 61, which gives the audience an in-depth look at the way Brent sees the world, rather his disdain for society. Brent projects the fault onto his victims for their deaths due to their inability to detach themselves from material items and their overall lack of appreciation for the freedom they have to live and breath each second of each day to the fullest.

The World fair was the engineering project of its time. It brought plenty of excitement and attention to itself, but it also brought crime.

In the story, The Adventure of the Speckled Band by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Sherlock Holmes had believed that doctors make the greatest criminals. Holmes himself said "when a doctor does go wrong, he is the first of criminals. He has nerve and he has knowledge." Dr. Roylott had certainly gotten away with the murder of his stepdaughter Julia, and if it weren't for Helen Stoner being afraid for her life, Dr. Roylott would've probably gotten away with her murder as well. However, Helen called Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson to help solve her sisters murder, and not only did they solve her murder, but in an ironic twist, Dr. Roylott was also murdered by his own weapon.
