Daniel Confident Quotes
In the book that I finished, Daniel’s story by Carol Matas, about the story of a Jew living in Frankfurt, Germany at the time when WW2 was going on. I think the protagonist, Daniel, is self confident because he is brave, strong, and hopeful, just a few trait’s to make one self confident.

The first reason Daniel is self confident is because he is brave. One piece of text evidence from Daniel’s story is when he takes photos of Auschwitz for the resistance even when if the S.S men would catch him he would die. Another example is when he kicked the teacher just to stand up for Jews even when the teacher could beat him. Another reason why Daniel is self confident is because he is strong. One example that show Daniel’s strength is when he made

    This story makes me think about how believing in yourself and working hard can basically help you achieve any goals you have in mind. Jake Cullen had stopped believing in himself for a brief period of time in the beginning of the book. He thought he had no chance of becoming the first string quarterback for Granger High. He kept getting down on himself for worthless thing like overthrowing a ball to Calvin, there #1 receiver, in one of Jake’s first practices. He continued to get down on himself until Coach Jessup, the offensive coordinator, helped him by having one-on-one sessions with Jake after practices. Coach Jessup would help him with his throws and tell him valuable things like “Be Jake Cullen, not Wyatt Cullen,” and “The #1 thing you need to remember is, as long as you believe in yourself, you can do anything.” After about a week or two into these practices with his coach, Jake had already changed, not only with his throws, but with his…

    “Was God hiding from us during the killing? It used to be that God and I shared many drinks together as friends. We don’t talk much anymore, but I would like to think that we can one day reconcile over an urwagwa and he will explain everything to me” (Rusesabagina 184). Throughout the novel, Paul Rusesabagina is faced with a never-ending avalanche of struggles that would smother a weaker man. However, he maintains a façade of resilience despite his tribulations and fears, doing so through his eloquence and mastery of the art of conniving. The aforementioned quote brings home the impact such a horrific experience brought upon him, while highlighting his innate tendency toward open communication. This tendency was his greatest assest throughout the genocide, which he exemplified when he said “Today I…
