Sebastian has created a cup that will turn the shadowhuntes into what is called “Endarkened.” Those who become endarkened lose their soul and become a servant or slave to Sebastian.

    This quote is taken place when Brent reaches the hospital and Brent is in a lot of physical pain and believes things will be best if he just dies. However, this last sentence states that Brent doesn’t want to die anymore. The author wanted to write these specific lines, because as a reader one can see the growth in Brent’s character and perception. We see in the beginning of the book how suicidal and self-destructive Brent was, from hiding knives in his room to his many suicide attempts. The wanting to kill himself is slowly subsiding while Brent is learning to appreciate life and his friends and family.…

    Scarlet Letter Oak Quotes

    • 10 Pages

    The prison door is important to the Puritan social order, whose unbendable certainty condemns and confines Hester. Like the door (oak is among the heaviest and most grounded of woods), the Puritans are fearless in their moral quality and along these lines, unsympathetic in their judgements. The iron spikes reinforce this delineation, drawing in thought with respect to the gathering's merciless judgements and reformatory character. The usage of oak in the line emphasizes the centrality of the prison and its importance in their world.…

    “Why should they be afraid of us? We aren’t hurting them,’ she broke in. “I’m not sure that I know why,’ I told her. ‘But they are. It’s a feel-thing not a think-thing. And the more stupid they are, the more like everyone else they think everyone ought to be. And once they get afraid they become cruel and want to hurt people who are born different” And God created man in His own image. And God decreed that man should have one body, one head, two arms and two legs: that each arm should be joined in two places and end in one hand: that each hand should have four fingers and one thumb: that each finger should bear a flat finger-nail…” “And any creature that shall seem to be human, but is not formed thus is not human. It is neither man, nor woman. It is a blasphemy against the true image of God, and hateful in the sight of God.” “The more complex they made their world, the less capable they were of dealing with it. They had no means of consensus. They learnt to co-operate constructively in small units; but only destructively in large units. They aspired greedily, and then refused to face the responsibilities they had created. They created vast problems, and then buried their heads in the sands of idle faith.” "I was a normal boy, growing up in a normal way, taking the ways of the world for granted... It is hindsight that enables me to fix that as the day when my first small doubts started to germinate." "The ways of the world were very puzzling..." "They could never have succeeded. If they had not brought down Tribulation which all but destroyed them; then they would have bred with the carelessness of animals until they had reduced themselves to poverty and misery, and ultimately to starvation and barbarism. One way or another they were foredoomed because they were an inadequate species." “I shall pray to God to send charity to this hideous world, and sympathy for the weak, and love for the unhappy and unfortunate. I shall ask Him if is indeed His will that a…
