Both can push you out of a place into something you’ve never expected to face‚ or into a better place. They can both be calm and gentle at times; and they both have the potential to end. In The Outcasts of Poker‚ Flat Bret Harte has an excellent portrayal of nature reflecting a communities actions. As the

I believe that I believe that Shakespeare intended a speech for his audience that exalted humanity.

Slave masters are deprived of their humanity because they are too‚ unable to do what is right. Slaves have many points of view to look at. At a certain extent they are able to do what is right because they work the fields to feed people‚ they work in the house to clean and satisfy people. Although what is not right
