in life‚ the answer if unknown. However‚ a great man in life once said that if we lose ourselves in books‚ we find ourselves too. This being said‚ the only thing I can think of is finding myself through Jay Gatsby in The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Jay was a man who had only one fear‚ losing his true love‚ Daisy. However‚ I admire him not for his loving persona but for his dedication to success in life. He understands that in order to succeed‚ one must never give up‚ but must take all necessary

The Childhood of Two Generations: My childhood vs. My parents’ All I know about my parents’ childhood came from the story that my grandparents told me‚ and some old pictures that my parents showed me.

When I look back to my boyhood and compare it with my parents’‚ I realize that my generation enjoys huge benefits from a stable political

One of the people I really admire is a Polish physicist and chemist woman‚ full of courage and determination to investigate radioactivity. My admiration is not only for her talent but also for the fact that during the 19th Century‚ not many people could think about a woman changing millions of lives with her full-time studies‚ especially if she came from a poor family. That is the reason why Marie Curie’s generosity deserves our grateful thanks. Since she was a child‚ Marie Curie knew that the greatest

Movement are the people that I admire most. I admire them for their courage‚ their tenacity‚ patience‚ peacefulness and their relentless quest for equal treatment. From these individuals I learned that one person can make a difference‚ one person can start a revolution and make a change.
