first thing to remember is that she doesn’t run from danger. A great quote that expresses this idea is “... but having jumped off a mile-high cliff while being chased by murderous beasts didn’t leave us much choice is the matter.” This shows you that Vega will take a risk in order to continue her adventure and keep her friend safe. Another quote that further proves this is “ I had just stood there as the inficio was coming to kill us.” That line from the story shows that sometimes Vega Jane can get

“’Dear little Pearl‚ wilt thou kiss me now? Thou wouldst not‚ yonder‚ in the forest! But now thou wilt?’ Pearl kissed his lips.

Throughout this entire chapter‚ Dimmesdale tries to cleanse his heart by telling the townspeople that he is not the man that they know and love. Instead‚ he is a sinner who has committed adultery with Hester

I choose this quote because it shows how Gandalf is perceived from the hobbits. I think Bilbo’s opinion will change if he decides to go on this quest and I hope he has a better opinion of Gandalf and adventures. I think this quote shows that Gandalf has been out of the radar with the last line with Bilbo saying “I had no idea you were still in the business” which I interpret that Gandalf has been away. Maybe on a big quest? This quote came from Thorin while talking about the quest. Thorin is very

The most meaningful quote from “The Pearl” by John Steinbeck is “ Kino threw the pearl into the water”. This quote is the most meaningful quote because when he threw the pearl he felt that he wanted to leave all of the events that happened to him with the pearl. If this quote was not in the story‚ then the story would have ended up Kino still having the pearl and bad events would happen to him‚ for example‚ Kino makes bad decisions because he refuses to get rid of the pearl even though strangers

Quote #1: Greta and pressure It is clear to see that Greta lays in the leaves waiting for June to find her‚ this is Greta’s way of escaping reality‚ Greta escapes because she feels like she is moving too fast‚ she purposely waits for June almost like a child waiting for their parent. “I could see a light reflecting off a pair of glasses. The glasses were on a face. Greta’s muddy face. Just her on the forest floor‚ her shiny black hair pulled back tight and those round silver-framed glasses […] I

“But I think a big part of the reason I didn’t care about Soraya’s past was that I had one of my own. I knew all about regret.” (180) "Come. There is a way to be good again" This quote is significant because it indicates that Rahim Khan has known Amir’s secret all these years‚ the secret of Amir’s cowardice when Hassan was being attacked by bullies while running a kite for Amir "...the elephant in the room’...Nothing could more correctly describe the initial moments of my reunion with Rahim Khan"

“I realized then that surviving / the peace was up to me.” – Narrator (Northrup‚ Jim. Walking the Rez Road: Stories. Fulcrum Publishing‚ 2013. Print. 4.) This quote was rather strange to me. It’s hard to imagine that someone’s life experiences were so chaotic and screwed up that in time of peace and serenity they are struggling and confused. My life is so hectic I would pay money to have just a week of no stress‚ no problems‚ just peace. “Didja ever wonder / when it would end? / It ended for my

The Great Gatsby: Reader Response Jewels Hinton Wishum English 11 P5 “This isn’t just an epigram--life is much more successfully looked at from a single window‚ after all.” (Fitzgerald 4). This Novel is like an exceptionally elongated poem. Poems are usually meant to be taken apart and analyzed because there are many ways to view it. The Great Gatsby is a fine example of this. There are many symbols and representations of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s view of the 1920’s as a whole. He demonstrates
