.... to try to see a situation from the other person’s point of view before they make a judgement. Scout begins to realize that people’s ignorance isn’t always their fault. Her teacher, Miss Caroline, is new in Maycomb, and doesn’t know about the families living there. Scout was very upset that she got scolded for explaining the caste system to the teacher, but then she began to understand. “’...but if Walter and I had put ourselves in her shoes we’d have seen it was an honest mistake on her part. We could not expect her to learn all of Maycomb’s ways in one day, and we could not hold her responsible when she kne .....

.... which is not as nice, it gets colder and angrier at people, just like parent’s get angrier at their children. Then beautiful and warm summer comes back. In the story June’s Mom was like winter, cold and angry at June. She was angry at June for not being obedient, not doing what she told her to, and ruining her reputation in her little circle of friends. This one time June’s Mom basically forced June to take piano lessons, because she wanted June to be prodigy. June did take the lessons , unfortunately she had no other choice.

.... tried to get Atticus to fire Calpurnia, because in her eyes, Calpurnia wasn't a good enough female role model (p.136). This is a prejudice action, because Calpurnia is as good as a role model as Aunt Alexandra, if not better. Aunt Alexandra is a bigot and doesn't see the character of Calpurnia, just the color of her skin. Another person who is treated like an inferior is Scout by her teacher, because she knew how to read. "She discovered that I was literate and looked at me with more than faint distaste. (p.17)." Scout is treated like it is her fault that she knows more than the average child did. She learned earlier than others so she gets punished unj .....

.... she learns that Duncan would be spending the night at their castle, she immediately decides to kill him. She mentions that her husband was not ruthless by nature, and that even if he wanted something so badly, he would not cheat to get it. She sees this as a character flaw. However, Lady MacBeth does not have that problem. In fact, her goal is to get MacBeth to feel as she does. She does so by questioning his manhood in saying: Art thou afeard To be the same in thine own act and valor Which thou esteem'st the ornament of life, And live a coward in thine own esteem, Letting "I dare not" wait upon "I would," Like the poor cat i' .....

.... the reader, "dying"metaphors that are too commonly used can lose their vividness. For example, in an article for the Ottawa Citizen, Dan Leeth described the landscape of the Grand Canyon as vast emptiness", a metaphor that has lost it's effect on the reader due to the fact that it is used too frequently in Modern English.

For example, in another article, Randall Denley, speaks of the unions and their "kangaroo courts", a metaphor that is commonly used without any knowledge of it's meaning. In another article, metaphors like "His .....

.... eyes and clear voice. He loved the way he walked, his complete grace of movement; he loved everything that Siddhartha did and said, and above all he loved his intellect, his fine ardent thoughts, his strong will, his high vocation. Govinda knew that [Siddhartha] would not become an ordinary Brahmin, a lazy sacrificial official, an avaricious dealer in magic sayings, a conceited worthless orator, a wicked sly priest, or just a good stupid sheep amongst a large herd. No, and he, Govinda, did not want to become any of these, not a Brahmin like ten thousand others of their kind. He wanted to follow Siddhartha, the beloved, the magnificent. And if he ever .....

.... catcher with nowhere to go or anything significant to save. The rye is like a field where a baseball team plays, although it grows tall and Holden gets lost inside. Holden needed to feel like a savior. One day at the museum, after writing his sister Phoebe a note to meet him there, he had an urgent need to be a 'catcher', to save Phoebe and the other kids. There was profane language on the wall and he did not want them reading it. He thought it may corrupt them and said, "It drove me damn near crazy". The title also relates to the theme, which is essentially that Holden Caulfield, a prep-school dropout, seems only to relate to his younger sister, Phoebe. H .....

The following paragragh is an exerpt of his writing’s to show the long, varied writings that changed from subject to subject: “I have been the more particular in this Description of my Journey, and shall be so of my first Entry into that City, that you may in your mind compare such an unlikely Beginning with the Figure I have since made there.
