Never Judge a Book by It's Cover Speech
Good Morning, fellow students and Teachers,
Today I will be talking about the topic “Never
Judge a book by its cover”.

Never judge a book by its cover is a saying the meaning is never Judge someone or something by what they look like.

If you didn’t play with a person when they
Asked because you think they don’t look
Pleasant you may be wrong they might
Be really nice on the inside and very
Fun.

Also it’s not what they look on the
Outside it’s what’s on the inside that
Counts the most.

I may not have eaten the sushi at
The party because it looked yucky,
Well maybe I’m wrong maybe it
Tastes yummy.

That’s another Don’t judge a book by its cover but it is a don’t judge the food on how it looks.

It’s also like if I didn’t eat the passion
Fruit because it looks yuck well I
Have already eaten the passion
Fruit so it’s not about me it’s about
You.

Every time I have passion fruit
For fruit break I have people come
Up to me and say uhh... and all
Of those people who do this haven’t
Even tried it.

That’s another don’t judge food on
What it looks like.

So I think I’ve made my point so
Next time you something that
Looks unpleasant try it! You
Never know when it comes
To food, fashion, furniture
And many more things.

Next time you see someone
Who looks unpleasant ask them
To play because the chances
Of you having a new best friend is possible!

Thank you for listening to my
Speech

    The author of The Perils of Social Reading, Neil Richards, writes about the issues of updating an old privacy act that could interfere with the way we view the world through our reading and watching movies. The VPPA or Video Privacy Protection Act is an old act from 1988 that the House of Representatives wants to update to make it so when a Facebook or Netflix user watches or reads something on the internet, it is automatically posted to your Facebook feed. Richards brings to the attention of the reader the issues with this because many people are self-conscious about what they read and would rather not have people know. The article…

    In this book, Gladwell brings light to judging a book by its cover. He takes note of how "our world requires that decisions be sourced and foot noted, and if we say how we feel, we must also be prepared to elaborate on why we feel that way". He then continues to explain how "we need to respect the fact that it is possible to know without knowing why we know and accept that--sometimes--we're better off that way".…

    In The Book Thief by Markus Zusak, the use of Death as a narrator impacts the tone of the story by making it mysterious and also sorrowful. The tone becomes mysterious because humans do not have a very good understanding of death and what happens when one dies, and it becomes sorrowful because Death allows the audience to witness and understand the deaths of so many people in the war and in life.…

    James C. Peterson, author of Why Don't We Listen Better? Communicating & Connecting in Relationships, through trial and error learned the value of communication balancing in which he found that the counselor must listen awhile, talk until the other person stops hearing and then listen until the person calms enough to hear again.(Peterson, 2007 Pg. 5) This concept is enlarged into a process in which Peterson calls the flat-brain syndrome. The purpose of the writing of this book according to Peterson was to assist couples in gaining the communication skills needed to improve their relationship. In this book Peterson says to make personal connection with people communication skills need to involve the stomach, which puts our feelings into words, the heart which makes clear that we are putting our own feelings into words and the head which puts our thoughts into words. (Peterson, 2007 Pg. 16) Peterson says that he uses the flat-brain syndrome to understand the problem of failed communication. Peterson explains “communication is the lubrication designed to keep our functions of stomach, heart, and head working separately and together” (Peterson 2007, Pg. 16).…

    Peterson’s uses a variety of situation and scenarios to support a theory called the “flat brain theory of emotion.” Basically the author theorizes that emotion, both positive and negative, delay communication thus shaping relationships. According to Peterson we communicate using our stomach, heart, and brain. Each one affects the ability to recognize what is really happening during communication. He gives examples of how emotions outweighing each other and how they affect our vision, responses, and how we listen. To understand “flat brain syndrome” he compares unhealthy communication to a courtroom scenario. Courtroom dialogue is very defensive and attack like in nature, each party trying to win. Peterson believes that if are able to properly express our emotions without attacking and listen without becoming defensive it will benefit us in any relationship.…

    Rex Murphy’s “To Read or Not to Read” is a literary criticism on the works “How to Read and Why” written by Harold Bloom. Murphy explains his views on the importance of reading and asks the question “Why do we read?” His response to this question, he states “Plainly, we read because while it is not necessary to life that we do, life is much easier, more accessible, wider in its potential for those who can and do read, than for those who cannot and do not”. This essentially means that although reading is not a necessity to what we do in life, it makes what we do easier. Further on in this piece, Murphy states that literature teaches and delights and that we read to learn or to find pleasure. This point is extremely correct. Two major reasons…

    Throughout the film I have decided to tell the story of different characters. I have done this with the use of camera work, following the characters as the story unravels. This subtle camera work allows the audience to experience each of the characters perceptions at the given time. A good example of this is when Samuel is wondering around the train station, showing the viewer his childlike innocence as everything Is new to him. It is particularly easy for the viewer to capture as I have positioned the camera at Samuel’s eye level. I have used this method to give the audience the notion that everything is seen as he sees it.…

    In chapter 10 of To Kill A Mockingbird, Harper Lee uses the incident of the mad dog as an allegory to represent prejudice. At this part in the chapter Atticus and Heck Tate are watching the mad dog walk down the road. Scout and Jem are watching from the crack through the door. Jem whispers “ Mr. Heck said they walked in a straight line. He can’t even stay in the road.” This passage in the novel represents prejudice because when Jem whispers that “Mr. Heck said that they walked in a straight line,” it means that usually the prejudice has been under control and not very noticeable by the people in the town. After, Jem says, “He can’t even stay in the road.” Which means that the prejudice was unnoticeable before, but now the prejudice can’t even stay in the road. It has the meaning that the prejudice is starting to become out of control and someone has to do something about it because it threatens all the townspeople. “Mr. heck said they walked in a straight line” also means that the people in Maycomb could handle the prejudice. Now that “It can’t even walk in a straight line.” The people of Maycomb have to take action against it, but everyone is too afraid to do anything. The people of Maycomb are afraid of change and they don’t know what to do when the mad dog comes. The only people that have enough courage to do something about the mad dog, the prejudice, are Atticus and Heck Tate. Even though Heck Tate is out there with Atticus, he is still too afraid to do anything about the prejudice so he gives his gun to Atticus. Atticus is afraid of the prejudice but he has the courage to destroy it. It was taking Atticus a while to shoot it, but he finally did. He destroyed the prejudice. Clearly, the incident of the mad dog represents more than just a dog in To Kill A Mockingbird; Rather, Harper Lee uses the mad dog as a symbol of the prejudice in the town of…

    In Viktor Frankl’s Man’s Search for Meaning we are told a powerful story of a man’s survival through the Holocaust. Frankl struggles to not only keep his body alive, but his spirit as well. Frankl’s main goal is to not only come out alive from the Holocaust but to not let it change him and ultimately defeat or take over his life and change who he truly is. He knows the only way to stay alive is to find some sort of meaning in his life. As we watch him fight to survive during his stay in concentration camps we begin to realize that the only way he is surviving is because he hasn’t forgotten who he still is and the identity that the Nazi’s were trying to take from him. He keeps his personal identity, goals, and morals in mind while others seem to lose themselves.…

    Recently on the internet, there has been a meme circling around. It starts with a person about to engage in something ridiculous, such as shaving their eyebrows, cutting their hair, etc. However, they stop at the last second, turning to the camera to say, “Don’t ever judge a book by its cover.” Though this meme is purely for entertainment purposes, the concept of making unfair judgements has been around for generations. Consequently, ample authors use the theme of not judging others in their works. For example, in Measure for Measure by William Shakespeare, the character Isabella argues that, “We cannot weigh our brother with ourself” (2.2.156). This quote can be interpreted in quite a few different ways, but the two that are the most prominent are that you cannot compare the actions of one human being to another, and that the only person you have the right to judge is yourself.…
