After reading Quindlen’s argumentative persuasive essay called “Driving To The Funeral”‚ it was clear that she was against the driving age being 17. On the other hand‚ I believe the driving age should stay at 17. While I do drive and consider myself to be a very safe driver‚ not every teenager is. Of course one could say that we’re all attached to our cellphones by the hip and can’t even put it down while driving‚ but that’s not always the case. Personally I don’t use my phone as I’m driving‚ but

Cather’s admiration for Antonia is very clear throughout the book in my own opinion. Antonia goes through lots of difficult hardships like her father’s sudden suicide and her fiance leaving her while pregnant‚ but she continues to percervere and take care of her family no matter what the circumstances are in her way. She is generous‚ vivacious‚ and an inspiration for girls everywhere. An example of this is shining through especially when Mr. Harling stated “You’ve been going with these girls who

Both “Pericles’ Funeral Oration” transcribed by Thucydides and “The Perils of Indifference” by Elie Wiesel demonstrate desire for a redefined culture: a culture that is geared towards a better societal attitude.
