    As I began reading Hawthorne’s “The Three Golden Apples”‚ I found it interesting that the main character’s name is not revealed until almost at the middle of the story.

    respect? Some people do not care and will use it as an excuse to essentially abuse someone. If Luke makes the golden rule a priority‚ first we would have to find out if Luke even prefers to be treated fairly. If honesty is important to Luke‚ he would never tell his brother.
