In reading this book you can learn that being a soldier during any war can be a hard road to go down. In the novel “All Quiet on the Western Front” by Erich Remarque, the theme of the story is how the main character learns that the effects of war is hard for some soldiers to deal with.

I think that the message of the book is somewhere along the lines of following your dreams and how hard work pays of.

This simple way of life combined with their dreams is what makes the story. Without this the story could not take place.…
The spiritual beliefs of the characters in The Sacrifice had a powerful influence on their choices throughout the course of the novel.

In envy, Grizzlyfire broke his charm or ‘medicine’ carrying good fortune. Born-great died soon after, and she thought she was responsible for his death and believed his ghost continued to haunt her after she left her village.…

Ancient Greeks cared very much for the gods, as they would kill animals for them so that they could be protected.. The Greeks would only sacrifice an animal if they thought the gods desired it or thought they had to do it to be safe. People would sacrifice all together or in groups to share the guilt of killing an animal. It is saying that the people who believed in Ancient Greek mythology didn’t really want to sacrifice the animals, but did it for their god/gods. They would only give the gods an animal that was healthy prior to its death as it was considered offensive to the gods if they didn’t. This meant that the Greeks had to use their good stock to please the…
