written by the famous William Shakespeare was "The Tragedy of Julius Caesar". It depicts a tale of insurmountable political unrest following the assassination of Julius Caesar‚ the ruler of Rome during the Roman Empire.

Machiavelli‚ the well-known philosopher of the Italian Renaissance‚ poses this question in this famous book excerpt The Morals of the Prince: "is it better to be loved than feared‚ or vice versa?" Machiavelli answers his own question‚ arguing that a prince is much safer being feared than being loved. Inducing fear upon his subjects with cruelty will keep them united and loyal. Those who are fearful of a person of any authority are more inclined not to cross the boundary of disrespect‚ for fear of

It is hard to be skeptical of things that you feel strongly about. But it is best to remain cautious. In Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet powerful emotions lead to trouble when in Act 1 Scene 1‚ the two families battle it out and in Act 3 Scene 1 when Mercutio is killed by Tybalt. Like they say‚ hate is a strong word. This can be seen right away in Act 1 Scene 1‚ when the two families are in a brawl. The scene begins with two Capulets casually talking about killing the Montague men and raping the

Home Schooling: Not the Better Option Many have argued that homeschooling is the better option when raising children‚ yet evidence has proven it ’s not. Homeschooling takes a toll on a family ’s finances‚ a child ’s social skills‚ and overall children are not getting a well rounded education like they would receive in public schools. In an average home where the matriarch would make forty thousand to sixty thousand dollars a year‚ they loose about one million dollars in twenty years. To homeschool

but is it really murder? Euthanasia can help family members‚ relatives and carers to end the dreadful pain and suffering that their loved ones have to endure. It sometimes seems the kindest thing to do. However one could argue that with more powerful pain relief and dedicated hospices‚ pain should be controlled. Another reason against euthanasia is that in hospitals it could destroy the relationship and trust between the patient and the doctor. Also is it really fair to put the Doctor in the

The Dickenson County School Board wants to add a hour and a half to the school day. I disagree with the idea for three reasons. One‚ the school day is long enough. Two‚ children will not have time for sports‚ clubs‚ and other after school activities. Three‚ stress levels are bound to rise with this nonsense. Why add boring hours to dreary days? Staff and students handle more than meets the eye during the day. The effects of a change such as this will only end poorly. In other words‚ why torture children

In my opinion‚ both arguments make valid points. In the excerpt "Cursive Is a Powerful Brain Tool"‚ it states that psychologists found students learned more if they handwrote notes instead of typing them. Although that may be true for some‚ its a biased argument because we don’t know how many people were surveyed to find that out. Not everyone learns the same‚ so cursive cannot be helpful for everyone. When I was younger I was taught cursive and told that I would be using it for the rest of my life

“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” This quote by Nelson Mandela exemplifies the importance of education in the world‚ and how with education‚ the world can be changed. However‚ this vital education is currently unevenly distributed even among the people in one country. Therefore‚ although there may be drawbacks‚ the government and more privileged members of society should strive to provide affordable education to all members of society. In the United States
