.... of Glamis, Thane of Cawdor, and „(…) King hereafter“. They prophesize that Banquo will become king though he will not himself be one.

Banquo resists any thoughts that might hasten the witches‘ prophecy that his children will .....

.... in God. Beneatha, however, does not find solace in God. Instead, she believes that man deserves credit for his own efforts. In Act I, Beneatha says, "How much cleaning can a house need, for Christ's sakes." (p. 34) Lena gets mad and Ruth says that Beneatha is "fresh as salt." (p. 34) Beneatha retorts, "Well- if the salt loses its savor." (p. 34) Lena gets offended even at this mild sacrilege. Later, Lena says, "You going to be a doctor, honey, God willing."

A few examples would be the Spice Girls with their “girl power” phenomenon, Kordell Stewart being a great athlete, Michael Jordan wi .....

.... their male and female aspects. These male and female aspects can be generally described as the external, physical strength of the male, and the internal, passive and nurturing strength of the female. It was an imbalance toward the male side that led to the destruction of the people and their culture. Okonkwo, the main character in the book, was the son of Unoka, who was a loafer. Unoka was too lazy to go out and plant crops on new, fertile land, preferring to stay at home playing his flute, drinking palm wine, and making merry with the neighbors.
