    “The Lowest Animal” by Mark Twain is written as a satire to talk about his opinion on human nature. The main idea that he wants to get across is that animals are better than humans. In the story “A Time of Gifts” by Stephen Gould‚ it talks about the contrast between positive and negative things that happen in life. The outlook on this story is that for every act of evil‚ you will be granted with 10‚000 acts of kindness. Stephen Gould’s opinion is more relatable for me compared to Mark Twain’s opinion
