Fate or Fatality David Mamet correctly stated that‚ “…it is the human lot to try and fail…” This quote means that human beings are destined to always attempt to improve their lives although they are seldom successful.

Olawunmi Ajibola July 10th 2013 Cicero once stated that “… The greater the difficulty the grater the glory …” My interpretation of this would be in order to fulfill ones goals or desires you most struggle to get there‚ the more you struggle the more satisfaction you’ll feel in the end.

students should have the right to control their own bodies and choose what they do with it. The aim of compulsory PE isn’t being fulfilled at present in any case‚ and greater efforts to enforce it will only result in more deceit.
