She was remembering her friend, Armelle who had always been strong even through the hardest times. Sarah pretended to be like her brave friend so that she could be able to get through the cold and unbearable night. The bulk of the chapters that I read, took place in the train through the camps.

    We live in a country where television and advertisement is designed to entice people into always wanting more than what they already have. This enticement is achieved by feeding into the human desire for happiness.

I know people would try to do the right thing but whether they want or not sometimes it's okay not to be a perfect person. By moral saint Wolf described a person whose every action is as morally good as possible, a person, that is, who is as morally worthy as can be and whose life is dominated by commitment to improving welfare of others and society (Wolf, 419-420). Susan Wolf argues that being a moral saint is neither desirable nor reasonable.…
