An Analysis of Dreams by Timothy Findley "We are such stuff as dreams are made on" (Shakespeare The Tempest) perhaps most accurately sums up the human fascination with their own dreams. Fleeting‚ transitory‚ and possessing their own reason‚ these strange passes of fancy strike attention and draw importance to themselves. In Timothy Findley ’s short story "Dreams"‚ the human obsession with‚ and dependence upon‚ dreams is taken up in detail. The story can be seen as symbolic in its entirety‚ with each

Every society is different. In some cases‚ women in some countries can’t show major parts of their body. China limits parents to having one child. In North Korea‚ women can’t wear pants and men have to have their hair cut every 15 days. There are many written laws/rules‚ but there are also rules that are just common sense.
