“Where there’s hope, there’s life.”(Part 8, 19:18) Anne Frank is a Jewish Dutch Girl who begins her puberty when the war breaks out. Throughout the autobiography, Frank tells her beloved diary, whom she calls kitty, her personal history in the secret annex where she absconds with seven other people. The plot follows the young teen through her romance, difficulties, and explorations. At the end of the war, her father’s mission was to immortalize both her and her story. Thanks to Otto Frank’s determination and effort her diary was translated and published in 67 languages and over 30 million copies were sold.…

While pursuing revenge, it is said to start digging a grave along with the grave of the person being avenged. In Book 3, Chapter 14 of A Tale of Two Cities, Madame Defarge reaped that which she sowed. It was made evident that concerning Madame Defarge, the revolution in France is in fact just a euphemism for the revenge she wants to execute against the Marquis Evremonde. She adopted compensating that which the Marquis stole from her, which was all her living relatives, as her personal mission. Despite achieving her goal of capturing Charles Darnay, and having him sentenced to death by the guillotine, she is still not satisfied. Madame Defarge goes in search of Lucie, Darnay's wife, in hopes of catching her in the act of lamenting for a prisoner.…
| Anne says this in frustration after Mrs. Van Daan yells at her for spilling milk on her coat. This expresses another Anne because it suggests that Anne sees herself changing, that she envisions a different self. I feel that Anne says this because to her, everybody in the Annex shows more favoritism to Margot then her, especially her mother. On the outside it seems Anne can’t always control her temper, as she strives to be more like Margot, who is patient and calm. On the inside, she is jealous of Margot, wanting to have more of an attitude like hers, and convey a better personality to others, contrary to what she’s done. Also Anne is younger, so it is understandable that she'd look up to an older sibling. I can relate to this because many times in our family, I feel as if my parents favor my older sibling over me. I have the same feelings as expressed in this quote, as it is hard to be more mature than somebody older. This quotation suggests change in Anne, as she herself wants to change, and be more socially civil rather than her normal self. Though it conveys negativity on Anne’s character, as she is losing her temper, it also shows maturity, as she is maturing. This quote shows that she is maturing because she now realizes her impact on others, and wants to be more like Margot, who is quite a role model to her. Some questions that occurred were: * Will Anne keep maturing as she is already? *…
One character from my novel, Legend by Marie Lu, who could be identified as a best friend is Day, otherwise known as Daniel. One reason why Day could be considered a best friend is because although he is tough and independent, he is also kind and considerate. The author writes, “A part of me recalls the way he saved me from the skiz fight, that he helped me heal the burning wound in my side, that his hands had been so gentle.” (Lu, 148). In this quote the author explains how Day saved June when she was escaping from a skiz fight. This proves that Day could be a best friend because although he is a criminal, he still saved a stranger, showing that he is kind.…
Trust is an important thing, but it must also be understood that trust being broken is not always one’s fault. There are occasions where life takes unexpected turns that change everything. Friar Lawrence played a rather large role in the love of Romeo and Juliet. The thing that some call ‘fate’ left Romeo dead because information had not reached him. Friar was left to say, “A greater power than we can contradict Hath thwarted our intents” (Shakespeare Scene V Act 3). So there are times when promises and friendships can be broken because of events that are neither persons fault, so sometimes one must resort to mercy and understanding for broken trust. Romeo and Juliet shows this as well as it could possibly be…
Hoit Tower Drive, Andover Road, Abbey Road, Broadway, Transfagarasan. These are Roads from different counties, cities, states and countries, these roads have a known difference between each other. However, all these roads can relate to a quote by the brave Anne Frank. Anne Frank stated, “How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world”. No matter where you are if it is Hoit Tower or Transfagarasan, a difference is made in only a short amount of time.…
To me this quote represents how Claudia anticipates the events that the book will give us the reader’s attention to, most notably Pecola’s pregnancy. She remembers that she and Frieda pointed fingers at each other for failing to grow the plants one summer, but now she thinks if the earth itself was a danger to them, a more radical possibility. I believe this quote represents the levels of Pecola’s desire, she does not want blue eyes because they apply to the standards the whites have applied, but because she wishes to obtain different sights and pictures, as if changing eye color will change reality. She feels that changing her eye color will change her perspective of life/ the way she is viewed.…
n the Diary of Anne Frank it shows how Anne Frank strived and wanted to stay alive. Anne Frank lived in fear and hiding. She kept a diary of how she faced each day like her last. She kept going even though it was tough. Her and her family never knew when they would be caught while hiding.This was very scary for the Franks. In an article written by James Ryan it shows how even when Anne died she wanted to live. A quote was used that Anne Frank said herself “I want to be useful or give pleasure to people around me who yet don’t really know me. I want to go on living even after my death.” Anne Frank wanted to be helpful and go on living after death. This shows the quote “just keep swimming” by how Anne never wanted to give up she wanted to live forever and push on. Ryan also wrote about how Anne was always positive. In his article it read “Despite the uncertain and uncomfortable conditions in the the annex, Anne managed to maintain a positive attitude throughout the ordeal.”. Frank always stayed positive as she could throughout the holocaust. She tried so hard to keep a strong front and…
Are people really righteous or nefarious in essence? In the article, 1933--Hitler Comes to Power, by Patricia Smith, the reader is told of events leading, during, and after Hitler’s reign as Chancellor of Germany. In the play, The Diary of Anne Frank, written by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett, Anne Frank’s story of hiding in the Secret Annex is communicated through her father reading her diary and a third person point of view. Anne states in her diary that “in spite of everything, I still believe that people are really good at heart.” Anne is correct, which is shown through the Franks’ kindness, President Hindenburg and Adolf Hitler’s selflessness, but proven wrong by the Fire in Reichstag, and then right again with Miep and Mr. Kraler’s…
Annelies Marie “Anne” Frank was born June 12, 1929 in Frankfurt, Germany. She was the second daughter of Otto and Edith Frank. She had a sister who was three years older than her, Margot Frank. Anne and her family were liberal jews, which means they did not practice all of the customs and traditions of Judaism. They lived in a community of Jewish and Non-Jewish citizens of different religions. In 1933, Mr. Frank opened a branch of his business in Amsterdam, Holland. Because of Adolf Hitler’s anti-Jewish decrees they had to relocate. Otto Frank believed that his family would finally be safe from the Nazi aggression, but who knew in a few years everything would change.…
Anne Frank once said, “The weak die out and the strong will survive, and will live on forever!” People must be strong and hopeful if they want to persevere through extreme circumstances like a genocide. Anne Frank and Vahan Kenderian were these strong people. Vahan, like Anne Frank, was in his teen years when there was a genocide of his people. All of his family was killed, so his only option was to escape to Constantinople. Vahan Kenderian from Forgotten Fire can be connected to the historical figure Anne Frank because both people share parallels of living during a genocide, and doing everything that is possible to survive.…
Trust is the very thing that everybody in this world desires, or at least should desire from one another. Who wants to have a friendship or relationship without trust? Nobody does. Without trust, there is no friendship, and without friendship, there is no love. I believe that trust is an even greater compliment than to be loved! I believe George Macdonald said it best when he stated "To be trusted is a greater compliment than to be loved." When I read this quote for the first time, I thought to myself, "Wow that is so true. How can you be loved if you are not trusted first?"…
