Never go by the appearance of any thing‚ be it a person or a thing. Simply wanting for it just by the looks of it can lead to great disaster. Most of the time‚ what we see is not the reality; the outside appearance generally hides all the truth and reality. Though we might say face is the index of the heart‚ there are so many methods to hide the face reactions. But that can be found out on constant and vigilant observation alone. The credit worthiness of so many things are definitely questionable

MACBETH..Act !‚ Scene 1 and 2. About the Play: In 1606‚ William Shakespeare wrote a play‚ Macbeth‚ which has gone down in history as one of the best tragedies ever written. It is known to be the shortest and bloodiest tragedies of Shakespeare.

Many classic tales have origins and details so diverse and varied that one story tells but a fraction of what other stories might reveal. The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood‚ published by Charles Perrault in 1697‚ is no exception‚ but it does relay some common themes and familiar morals with an entertaining plot.

Number Four‚ Privet Drive The name of the street where the Dursleys live is a reference to that most suburban plant‚ the privet bush‚ which makes neat hedges around many English gardens. I liked the associations with both suburbia and enclosure‚ the Dursleys being so smugly middle class‚ and so determinedly separate from the wizarding world. The name of their area is ’Little Whinging’‚ which again sounds appropriately parochial and sniffy‚ ’whinging’ being a colloquial term for ’complaining or whining’
