.... "green dream" at the end of the bay. "Gatsby believed in the green light...."(189) The green light represents the dream of Daisy five years before. Gatsby really wanted the old Daisy, and never realized that until much later. Gatsby’s everlasting devotion to Daisy shows his innocence. Just as a child might buy an apple for his first crush; Gatsby did everything for Daisy’s appeasement. Gatsby held his grand parties not to show off his wealth, but in hope that one day Daisy would grace one of them. He bought clothes to show to her, and even died for her. "It makes me sad because I’ve never seen such--such beautiful shirts before."(pg.98) .....

.... itself as much as it lies in the people who perform these actions. Many times doctors are technicians disposing medicine rather that one who relates to the patient in anyway possible(McCormick, 21). Ethical thoughts are blunted in a country with immoral values (McCormick, 21). More and more doctors forget the gift of life and make inhumane decisions. As in the medical procedures of euthanasia and abortion. As Richard A. McCormick stated, "The most basic value in the practice of medicine is obviously the sanctity of live." (21) Alodus Huxley’s novel, A Brave New World deals with many controversial moral conflicts. From the beginning of the novel when .....

.... the settings, the nature of the friendships, the rejection by peers, and the characters’ love of nature. The relationships between Colin and Dolly in The Grass Harp, and Buddy and Cousin in “A Christmas Memory” are close regardless of the differences in age. In “A Christmas Memory,” Buddy and Cousin have a large age split: Buddy is seven and Cousin is in her sixties. In The Grass Harp, Colin and Dolly have a similar age difference. But they are close friends, because they do many things together. They lived in the tree together, as well as dancing with each other. Likewise, Buddy and Cousin have a close relationship and do many things do together. Buddy an .....

.... someone to create a book solely about sugar. One passage that Mintz quotes on page 15 that really seems to capture our (Westerners) infatuation with sugar, and a strong reason the book at hand is as follows: Western peoples consume enormous per capita quantities of refined sugar because, to most people, very sweet foods taste very good. The existence of the human sweet tooth can be explained, ultimately, as an adaptation of ancestral populations to favor the ripest-and hence the sweetest-fruit. In other words, the selective pressures of times past are most strikingly revealed by the artificial, supernormal stimulus of refined sugar, despite the evidence t .....

.... how people chase what they think is evil, (For example: not going to church, not knowing the Commandments, etc.) persecuting basically good people while the truly evil escape and are even seen as the innocent victims. The people of Salem condemned many based on the few things that were considered ‘ungodly’ and since they committed one sin, then it was assumed that they were committing many others. They were condemned because they did not follow the exact ‘rules’ in their society which ‘defined’ who was good and who was evil. The people who followed the ‘rules’ were in turn deemed ‘good’, the nature o .....

.... conflict with her southern heritage. There are two ways to go about writing the plot of a story. A chronological plot is told as the events happen one right after the other. "A Rose for Emily" is not told in this manner. Faulkner starts out with Emily's death and then flashes back to many different events that happen during Emily's life. This creates gaps in the story about Emily's life that must be filled in with flashbacks. "A Rose for Emily" is in essence five different flashbacks combined together to form one story. Faulkner flashes back to the time when a deputation tried to collect on her taxes. This flashback is used to describe the lifesty .....
