    English Reaction- Like or dislike All Summer In A Day All Summer in a Day by Ray Bradbury depicts an innocent girl who is tormented by her society for not being the same. I like this story immensely‚ not only for its engaging plot but how it directly correlates with society today. It also shows how people are pure pressured into being someone they aren’t. The first reason I liked this story is because of its futuristic setting. The story is set in Venus in a jungle where all it does is rain.

Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds‚ Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark  That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark‚ Whose worth’s unknown‚ although his height be taken. Love’s not Time’s fool‚ though rosy lips and cheeks  Within his bending sickle’s compass come:  Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks‚  But bears it

    Ethan A. Proffitt ENG 243 Phil Ferguson 11-17-14 Sonnet 130 William Shakespeare’s 130th sonnet is perhaps the most intriguing and conceptually bizarre. The majority of his sonnets on the subject of women detail how lovely and fair they are‚ or how he is unable to serenade them (often because of a superior man); this particular example is an utter contradiction to his other female-based works. The central idea of the speaker here is to describe the appearance of his love interest to someone else‚
