priest that is cold hearted and needs to confess of his sin. So what does he mean in this Quote “[Men who have unconfessed sins] shrink from displaying themselves slack and filth‚ in the view of men; because thence forward no good can be achieved by them; no evil of the past can be redeemed by better service.” Is Dimmesdale right in this Quote?

Lastly‚ another quote that was significant to me was “As you grow‚ you learn more. If you stayed as ignorant as you were at twenty- two‚ you’d always be twenty-two. Aging is not just decay‚ you know.

This quote signifies that aging is not

That’s the world’s greatest lie"(Coelho 18). This is important because fate doesn’t control one’s life but rather it’s there for us to reach it‚ people feel overwhelmed but always have control and the opportunity to change. Another significant quote would be Santiago’s thoughts

Stand out quotes of Oedipus 1.”She is a woman of pride‚ and ashamed of my low birth” (Sophocles41) This quote is very intriguing. Even after learning that Polybus is not his real father‚ he still doesn’t realize he is the son of his wife‚ he still believes he is of low birth. This line shows how “blind” Oedipus is to the truth‚ so much so that he believes he is of poor birth‚ instead of his true birth into royalty. This line truly captures the meaning or a tragic drama by blatantly showing

The quote I chose for Siddhartha Gautama is “A wise man‚ recognizing that the world is but an illusion‚ does not act as if it is real‚ so he escapes the suffering.” I chose this quote for him because he was born to a mother who was part of the tribal ancestry and a father who was a wealthy king. He had the means to live a life of luxury; however he instead devoted his life to understanding balance and suffering. Though he didn’t have to live the effects of the suffering of humans‚ he always set
