Elizabeth Bennet's Mistakes
I like this quote because it is said by Elizabeth Bennet when she realized all her wrongdoings and found out who she really is. She discovered that she hasn’t been the best person to her sisters and wants to change that. In addition, we all have a point in our lives where we are trying to figure out who are and what we want to do with our lives. Furthermore, when you find out who you are who feel happy and relieved because you know your purpose. It is also important to recognize your mistakes and learn from them to be a better person.

    Have you ever wondered where you would be if you would have chosen another path? Have you ever wondered how that choice could have changed your life if you would have made it? Often I look back and think about my past and look at the places I have been and the things I have done. Some things I’m not proud of. Some of those things bring back vague memories. Whether they are good or bad they still come back to me. Everything we do is based upon choices. After we make those choices there comes consequences. We can never decide our consequences, they just come.…

    In The Crucible, this quote can be seen as true with the character of John Proctor. The story starts with people being accused of committing witchcraft. Many of these people are women. One of these women is Elizabeth Proctor who is John’s wife. She was accused by Abigail Williams, their former servant and the girl with whom Proctor had an affair. Abigail did this because she wanted to get rid of Elizabeth and be with John Proctor. John went to court to try and free his wife. However at court, Proctor ended up confessing his sin of lechery. Proctor had a high name in the village and was greatly respected so the judge and others couldn’t believe it when he confessed. Confessing had cost Proctor his pride. It left him feeling broken. Then, he is accused of being a witch by Mary Warren. At the end of the story, Proctor is given a chance to save himself. By saying that he is a witch and giving other names, he could have saved himself, even though he would have to lie. By sticking to the truth and saying that he is not a witch, he would hang. Proctor is a person with a lot of pride and couldn’t lie. He would rather hang than tell a lie and live. For him, it is morally wrong. He says, that he can’t teach his son to be men or give them a good example if he lies. Telling the truth was morally correct and he stuck with it, even though it…

    When we first meet Elizabeth Bennet, she seems like a well-put together young woman: smart, funny, pretty, and loyal. With this being said as the second daughter of a country gentleman who can't leave his estate to his daughter, Elizabeth is headed straight for poverty if she doesn't marry a man who can provide for her. And marriage seems to be the main goal in her time period and a ring is central to her quest, too. Still, Elizabeth come equipped with all seeing eyes as well as ears. As a matter of fact, priding herself on being a good observer and an excellent listener takes her far in the novel, and she's observed that marriage can also be a one-way ticket to unhappiness. Let us see the development in Lizzie Bennet and note her changes.…

    Pride and Prejudice and Madame Bovary, two books written in the nineteenth century shared by two of the stars most famous and controversial as well as common themes and motifs that are easily contrasted or opposed. With the first sentence in Pride and Prejudice can make the entry of recurring action will be present in both novels. "It is a truth That a single aknowledged Universally man in possession of a good fortune must-be in want of a wife". If a wealthy man of good social class should be looking for a wife a lady therefore seek the same qualities in her future husband. For the nineteenth century saw marriage as one of the achievements in life that must be met early. Both novels are giving different views of how marriage should be at the time and each player interprets it very differently to the first, while Pride and Prejudice ends with the marriage of the gather and protagonsita, Madame Bovary begins with the wedding Emma in the early chapters. Elizabeth Bennet treated it as a conservative you would expect to find a true and pure love to spend the rest of his life without considering the social and economic status of their spouse, unlike many other characters (specifically Charlotte Lucas, his best friend) which state that marriage is only a tool for social benefit and happiness in them is a matter of luck, the less they know it would be more convenient "-a slight preference is natural enough, But There are very FEW of us Who Have enough to be really heart in Love Without encouragement. In nine cases out of ten, a woman had better show more affection Than She Feels. "(Chapter 6, second paragraph). This becomes an ideology very common for this era. Emma Bovary share this thinking a certain way but unlike Elizabeth, this leaves his life unnoticed by the ambition to keep a love like the novels they read in a life of glamor and comfort (leaves both her husband and his daughter in this pursuit).…
