Simplicity In The Crucible

The Crucible Inside every piece of poetry or drama, there was always a beginning, middle, along with an end at least according to Aristotle.

The poem "To My Dear and Loving Husband", and parts of the play "The Crucible" have many similarities.

This statement shows how much love she has for her husband, and how she couldn't go without him. This relates to "The Crucible" because both of the stories show their love for their significant other.

As Bob Marley once said, “The greatness of a man is not in how much wealth he acquires, but in his integrity and his ability to affect those around him positively.” Integrity is the quality of being honest and upholding one’s morals and principles.

America’s vast military, continuously flourishing economy, and foundation that is built upon perceived independence, makes this country a powerhouse.

The American government only allows its citizens to know so much about the potentially negative implications that can come from manufactured products. In the process of making specific products, corners are cut so the manufacturer can profit more and save a couple of dollars.
