She is knows that it will hurt her to see the youth with the fairest lady in the land, but she also knows that it would hurt worse knowing she killed the innocent him with a crime she never wish upon anyone.
In the story “ The Lady , or the Tiger?” By Frank R. Stockson there is a semi-barbaric king who’s way of punishing a criminal was by giving him two options which in this case were two doors. He could open either door he pleased in which one of them had a tiger and the other the lady , if he opened the one with the tiger the tiger would immediately eat him but if he got the lady he would have to marry her and make a family. This was actually a fair decision because he had no idea in which door the tiger or the lady was in. The semi-barbaric king had a daughter whom he loved above all humanity the princess was in love with a young man he was handsome and brave she loved him very much . Many may think that in the story “The Lady, or the Tiger?” By Frank R. Stockson the lady came through the door, In fact the tiger was the one that came through the door because the princess hated the lady that was behind the door and she would never let her lover be married to someone whom she hates. The other reason is that the princess knows that they glared at each other when they were together so she knows there’s something going on between them two.
"People are always searching for ways to better themselves. It is said that those who read fiction tend to be more understanding, empathizing, and open minded. Humans are naturally flawed but reading seems to improve people. One natural, unavoidable characteristic of humans is judgment. People have an initial instinct to judge those whom they have just met. While it is true that judgment impairs one’s perspective when it comes to others, generalizations are the true barriers that do not allow people to get to know one another.
"The Yellow Wallpaper" is about a lady made crazy by post pregnancy anxiety and a hazardous treatment. However,, an examination of the protagonist’s portrayal shows that the story is generally about character. The protagonist’s projection of a fanciful lady, which at first is just her shadow, against the bars of the wallpaper shows her personality, disguising the contention she is dealing with and in the end prompting the entire breakdown of the limits of her character and that of her shadow.
Mariella is scared to show her fear because she thinks that it is a sign of weakness. “Her principle was Never reveal your weakness” (257), this confirms that she does not like to show any kind of weakness, especially fear. Her biggest fear is dogs because she was attacked by a dog at the age of nine or ten. She tries to hide that fear from Simon by talking to all the hikers on the trail about their dogs. She asks them what their dogs name are and then acts like she is not scared of them. Her not revealing this flaw to Simon ultimately led to the attack by the dog. Had she told Simon about her fear of dogs, they would have stayed at a safe distance away from the dog. Mariella reveals her second flaw when she says her and Simon are “fundamentally strangers” (257), even though they had been in bed together and been on many dates. She believes that Simon and her are technically “lovers” but are not yet “intimate” (257). “They’d been together in the woman’s house, upstairs in her bed, but they hadn’t yet spent an entire night together” (257). Though they had been on many dates and even possibly made love, they had not spent the entire night with each other because she could not fall asleep with him there. Mariella could not be close with a man and enjoy it. “In truth, the woman had never been very comfortable with a man at close quarters, unless she’d been drinking”
Companionship is the closeness or familiarity, a true fellowship among people who for some reason have a connection. “I desire the company of a man who could sympathize with me, whose eyes would reply to mine.” The quote is from Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein. Robert Walton longs for a friend. The creature wanted a female companion. Henry and Victor needed each other to get through school and life. Everyone needs at least one friend, who will bring his or her balance and love, into their life.
Margaret Wolfe Hungerford once said, “Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder”. The meaning of this quote is that beauty exists only in the mind of the person that contemplates it. This correlates with the beginning of the love shared by the main characters in Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare. Born from opposing families, Romeo and Juliet fall in love, but cannot be together because of their family feud. Their love begins from the moment they meet, and just upon looking at each other, they instantly fall in love. ¨Sonnet 148¨, also written by William Shakespeare, shows love and sight in a different light. Love is shown from a negative aspect, while the love of Romeo and Juliet are shown as a beautiful thing. Sight gives love many different
Would you let someone determine your fate? In the texts, “The Most Dangerous Game,” by Richard Connell and “The Lady or the Tiger” by Frank R. Stockton, the authors develops the theme of the decision of fate by having one character, choose the fate of another, in “The Most Dangerous Game”, Rainsford let General Zaroff, a man that thought assassinating people was lighthearted pleasure, determine whether he lived or died. Also, the lover from, “The Lady or The Tiger” asks the princess to determine his fate.
Choices and consequences are a subject that looks shallow from a certain angle, but if you view it from above, you’ll see the depth and the skewed perception and vision of the object. Responsibilities and consequences derived from choice and agency can vary wildly, and as a result, the relationship between the two sides can be directly connected, or extremely muddled. The justification for this statement lies in many places, daily life, the two passages, “The Lady, or the Tiger” and “Gladiators,” and even in subconscious choices.
In today’s society men and women are often expected to perform different tasks, and occupy different roles based on their sex. Within different cultures, the view of how women and men should act and interact varies with political and religious influences, as well as personal influences. Geoffrey Chaucer suggests that people’s ability to understand the opposite sex is divided because of the stereotypes set in society for the opposite genders. Women are more likely to work as secretaries, and men are likely expected to work as managers and executives in the working field. With views like these people are less likely to empathize with other people for the plain idea that we feel that we must be separated.
It did not take Sarah McLellan long in her career to face a situation that could put her reputation as a journalist on the line.

It was hard to Penelope to recognize her husband Odysseus when they were talking to each other’s in book 19. One of the biggest reasons that made her certain that her husband is died, is that he left for many years, and nobody told her truth about his location or about what is he doing.

Odysseus encouraged her not to delay the archery contest, and
A story that reflects a timeless issue of equality, morals, and lesson on what women really desire. The Wife of Bath by Geoffrey Chaucer is a story in The Canterbury Tales that expresses multiple moral lessons and an exciting dialogue that provides an entertaining story. The two stories that will be examined today are the “Pardoners Tale” and “The Wife of Bath”, after much evaluation I believe that “The Wife of Bath” is the better story. This is the better story because it’s more entertaining and also has more morals with better quality.
