Tokonan Monologue
Let me introduce myself: I am Lieutenant Tokonan, ethnicity Bossa. My friends call me rebel warriors-loser, the invincible. I'm 16. I do not know of White Paper (that means, I am not educated). I did not go to school in White. In my family there every world is poor and unfortunate. I have twelve sisters and nine brothers. My dad and my mom then there is death in this war. People here have killed my brothers and sisters there all wildly before myself. Mercilessly. They made me drink their warm blood. It made me sick and crazy. After that, I'm become bad, bad, bad. Villain much. Wicked too. I'm still angry. With all the worlds. With myself too. I'm afraid of myself. So I killed many, many. Mercilessly. I'm with the rebels there. I kill people there, I drink their warm blood. …show more content…
I eat their body as raw then braised chicken. It gives my strength, power, luck. It makes amulets, fetish, marabout, magic, wizard with that. That's my neck, my arms, my feet, my belt, it's all gray-gray. It protects me tight against bombs, cannons, machine guns, Kalashnikovs, pistols, twelve gauge, grenades, rockets, knives, machetes enemy soldiers. That is why I am still living there. Where my ancestors and the spirits of my house also protect me tight. Every time that I am praying, loud, loud, I shout their names loud, loud. They eat with me. They drink with me. They smoke Ganja, grass (drugs) with me. They give me courage, strong. They love my business and they telling me. They made me invinciblo, invulnérablo, immortal. Immortal here is big, big French. It simply means that someone can not hurt me, can not kill me and I can not die. It is understood that? Okay. When we left tackle Keboua, I was like that Daye (I was drugged). We circled the city there. Gendarmes, police and military are there to Okou been shot and butchered. Some fled. We raped their women and children there many, many. After that que is violated all the women of the town

    Tituba Monologue

    This scene is important to both the text of the play and the film adaptation, and serves similar purposes in both. For example, it signifies the rising action of the film as it includes the first of many false accusations and confessions. In addition to the importance this scene has to the structure of the play, it is also a pivotal scene for both Tituba and Abigail. For Tituba, this scene is her brief rise to power. Her confession ensures the town’s trust in her, making her arguably the most powerful member of Salem. However, Abigail sees not only the power that Tituba gains through her confession, but also the potential that she herself may have to influence the town. In general, this scene conveys the leverage over other members of Salem…

    People search forever to find true love, but true love will never be found if you can’t find true love within yourself. In the poem “Monologue for an Onion”, by Suji Kwock Kim, the metaphor isn’t just about the onion it’s also about being loved. Everyone falls in love at least once. And this love feels everlasting and perfect, as if it’s never going to end. Then, when the moment of heartbreak happens, it feels as if the world is crumbling right in front of you. People have different ways of handling a broken heart. Whether it’s denial, anger, or sadness, the feeling of not being loved is surreal. In this poem, the onion is a man that is no longer in love with his significant other and tells how…

    Simon Krell Monologue

    Blood is a fascinating hue. It’s sometimes crimson, scarlet, ruby red, or even bold red. Crimson is the stain that’s painted on my fingers, since I just accomplished a mission-to murder Simon Krell, who continued torturing his family members on a daily basis. Although he continued being a dangerous man, it was so simple to kill him that it occurred to be laughable, all the acting skills I needed was to pretend to act alike his maid and suddenly shoot the filthy person. As I laughed, my storm eyes gazed at the glowing sky that had waves of gleaming dots on it. A silver ellipse remained framed in the inky sky, supported with millions of winking balls of fire.…

    I was born in the year 1840. My name was Cha-O-Ha meaning one with nature. When I was only four years old My Mother died. As a young boy and throughout all my life I had a close friend named Hump. When I was about Fourteen years old I had a vision of myself. I was on horse that rode out of a lake, I wore simple clothing without any feathers or warpaint, as I rode around bullets and arrows did not touch me. My father Crazy Horse interpreted the vision to mean that if I dressed just like the warrior in the vision I would never be hit by a bullet or arrow. As I grew up I became a great warrior until I was awarded the term “Shirt Wearer” by Sitting Bull. I led many attacks against the white men who invaded my people’s land. When Captain William Fetterman brought 90 men into our territory I lead the attack against them and we destroyed them.…

    Hi, my names Valerie and I was born November 1st, 2000 at 1:30pm in New Westminster, British Columbia. Although, after almost six years of living in BC my Mom decided it was best my sister, Jennifer, her and I all move to Calgary, Alberta. We lived there for about a year, then we moved to the Okanagan in British Columbia, then back down to Surrey.

I attended Rosscarrock Elementary, Holly Elementary, M.V Beattie Elementary, Mary Jane Shannon Elementary and last but not least Guildford Park Secondary up until now.

    Young people often do not know what to expect of the future. They do not know how to act when something unexpected comes along, and their actions are based on what they do know; usually limited, biased information. This idea is central to the short story, ʺWar,ʺ by Timothy Findley. The young boy, Neil Cable, narrates the day he found out his father had joined the army. He speaks of his actions, feelings, and confusion surrounding that day. At first glance, his actions are all too often misinterpreted as violence and hatred, but after careful consideration, one can see that they are merely his way of dealing with the troubling news. He has not experienced enough in his lifetime to have a true understanding of war, and acts upon what he does know. In the short story, ʺWarʺ, by Timothy Findley, the young boy’s image of war and actions throughout are explained through the use of symbolism.…

    Monologue of Tybalt

    • 388 Words
    • 2 Pages

    I am Tybalt, a Capulet and cousin of Juliet. I am known as short-tempered, impulsive, and a vengeful person, I draw my sword anytime I can. However I am loyal beyond words and honour the family rivalry between the Capulets and the Montagues with great heart. I will never betray the Capulets. On the day of Capulets’ party Romeo showed up. I recognised Romeo through his disguise at the Capulets’ ball. I can’t remember that we invited him to our party. Why is Romeo here? What is his intention of showing up at my Uncle Capulet’s ball? He is a Montague and I loathe all the Montague because they are our enemy. He is not allowed to come to our party. I would have killed him or make him leave the ball immediately if not forbidden by my uncle. He stopped me because he didn’t want to make a scene at the party. I could have choose to disobey my uncle but if I do that he will be mad at me so I have no choice but listened to my uncle. However I won’t let him live so easily I will make his life miserable. I will take revenge on him next time I meet him. Therefore I have a plan, I will fight Romeo at the city centre but I will be banished if I start a fight with him. In that case I will provoke Romeo at the city centre of Verona so he will start a fight with me. When the prince found out that Romeo starts a fight with me he will banish Romeo from Verona forever instead of me. I sent a challenge letter to Romeo for a duel to the death and vowed to meet him later on. I didn’t know if Romeo will show up but I went off to look for him after the masked ball. Instead of finding Romeo I found his friends, Benvolio and Mercutio. After Romeo arrived, I confronted him to fight with me, but he refused. But his friend Mercutio winded me up after that so I started a fight with him. Romeo tries to stop us, but I stab Mercutio. I ran away after I stabbed Mercutio but I still have my sight set on killing…

I was one of the few that survived the attack that occurred in my village. Early in my childhood, I lived a normal life. I attended a Muslim elementary school and I rapped and danced in my free time. It wasn’t until I was twelve years-old when I had to leave that life. That was when the attacked happened. I struggled to stay alive and I was extremely desperate. As I wandered around Sierra Leone, a few friends and I had to find food and shelter. Many of them, however, died along the way. By age thirteen, I was taken in by a government army.

    The Viking Raid

    • 303 Words
    • 2 Pages

    One afternoon I was out working in my fields, the king Viking came to me and all my neighbors, to take us to go fight the other empires, and to take their land. So, while we were on our boats going to the other land, some of our people died because it took so long to get there and also of malaria. Only a few died so it didn’t matter much. We then realized that we needed weapons, so the first village we invaded was little so we could take it without any weapons. Then we stole their weapon which weren’t very good but they would do until we got new ones at the next village. So we went on a traveling looking for new land to steal from. So now that I’ve gone through one raid, I want to tell you how I am as a fighter and how I feel. As a fighter I think that I am probley the best as far as combat but when it comes to anything with ships I am horrible with it. How I feel after the first raid is good like it is what I want to do almost like I was born for it. So as we were coming to the next village to invade so we all had to kill a person to prove that you were worth staying with the Vikings so everyone killed someone, so we all stayed on the ship. After raiding that village we had enough food and weapons to get back home and have more food for the village. We got on the ship and headed home. We got home and everyone cheered for us. We had enough food for the next three months, until we went on the next raid.…

    Pechorin's Monologue

    • 445 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Levin's essay exemplifies the significance of Pechorin's monologue and his action towards Princess Mary of how it is portrayed throughout the book. Levin says that this specific monologue is known as “Pechorin's confession” that illustrates his characterization – corrupted and a deceiver. Levin states that Pechorin is always in an “assumed” atmosphere. He says that if one “assumes a certain air, it means one is playing a role: and thus we have reason to disbelieve him.” His argument saying that Pechorin shouldn't be accounted with trust goes along with his characterization of being disliked. I agree with Levin because whenever Pechorin was with Princess Mary, he was just trying to grab her heart and attention so he would have her instead of Grushnitsky. It was just simply for Pechorin's own amusement. This goes along with the monologue because Pechorin says that he “felt...superior to them.” Pechorin wants to take away Grushnitksy's happiness so he himself could feel superior and entertained, believing that he is better than the others. Also, Levin mentions that there is a repetition of the word “assumed” in how Pechorin is described. The point of that specific word is to imply that Pechorin is playing a “role” and is not being himself, merely to deceive people, as his monologue states that - “I began to deceive...” Levin states that it is an “assault” on Princess Mary. I agree with what Levin says because Pechorin deceiving and playing around with her makes Princess Mary very irritated. Towards the end, Princess Mary demands Pechorin if he actually loves her or not because Pechorin is so mutable. However, Pechorin directly says no, which inflicts pain onto Princess Mary, and caused her pain. This shows that all the “romantic” actions Pechorin displayed to her was basically fake and for fun. As for the second quote that Levin comments on Pechorin and his conflicts with other people, like Princess Mary. Levin states that Pechorin is not an outcast and had never had…
