Catcher In The Rye
<view this essay>.... stands out in my mind is the scene with Stradlater in the "can." If you remember Stradlater was getting ready for his other date while Holden watched him. "Stradlater was a secret slob" in public he always looked good and got all the girls but in fact he was a slob. His razor that made him look so good was "rusty as hell and full on lather and hair and crap." This proves that he is a slob to "never clean it or anything." If you think about it that's even worst than Old Ackley. At least Ackley knew that he had a problem, that he need to do something about his face; but Stradlater thought that he was a great guy.

between Cuba and the mainland is less than 150 miles(Ramo 62). Most fleeing Cubans
make the trip from Cuba to America the old fashioned way: in a rickety craft with weak
motors. A good trip takes about ten hours, while a bad trip goes on for days. Sailing the
Atlantic could be eternal during a storm, as Cubans are swept away. At least sixty people
have paid the price of venturing each year(64).
Caught up in freedom fever was Elisabet Gonzalez, who had been dating
small-time Cuban hustler, Lazero Munero, since 1997. During the summer of 1998,

Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean" the grudge mentioned means the basis of the feud. The civil brawls mentioned are between Mercutio and Tybalt, Romeo and Tybalt, Paris and Romeo.

Hamlet - Why Did Hamlet Delay Killing The King?
<view this essay>.... swift…May sweep to my revenge." Yet by the end of the same scene, his reluctance to murder King Claudius is evident. Hamlet says; "This time is out of joint, O cursed spite, that I was ever born to set it right."

Is Macbeth Responcible For His
<view this essay>.... play is based loosely on fact, Shakespeare altered some of the events so that they fitted the play.

However to a single person, happiness generally seems to be more import .....
