Albert Einstein said that unless we change our "modes of thinking" about political issues‚ we are headed toward "unparalleled catastrophe." Do you agree or disagree with this statement? I would have to say that such truer words have never been spoken before. If we as a global community continue to think in the same mindsets that we have in the past‚ then we will never be able to work together to accomplish goals such as eradication of diseases‚ homelessness‚ and other social problems.

The scene in Sling Blade which our class watched effectively created characterization for the character known as Carl. To begin the scene‚ it starts with Carl sitting and listening to a fellow in the same institution. A doctor interrupts his talking and says “there are some people for you to see”. The look on the man interrupted is dumbfounded. I can infer this is because Carl doesn’t receive many visitors. This is the author’s first note of characterization.

The two settings are completely spread apart and offer no reference to the other. In addition to the diversity of setting

Human relationships‚ and humanity’s understanding of the wild‚ are shaped and reflected in Blade Runner‚ by Ridley Scott‚ and in Brave New World (Aldous Huxley) through their composers’ use of the contrast between true nature and the wild. The human relationship with the wild is tenuous‚ and this is shown within both texts.
