Spy Kids By Robert Rodriguez: Quote Analysis
The quote above is by Robert Rodriguez from the movie Spy Kids 2. It has become a joke on the Internet in the intervening time leading to many people discarding the deep meaning of the quote and analyzing it in a hollow fashion. However, the quote asks a deep psychological question from the reader. It refers to humans as a dangerous species, so dangerous that even someone as powerful as God is afraid of them. The quote looks at humans in a demeaning fashion treating them as a horrible entity. Moreover, the quote leads to the reader questioning the strength of God. Why would someone as mighty as God be afraid of mere humans? This leads to the conclusion that God is not as strong as humans make Him seem and that He can be killed, explaining

    Edward Yashinsky Quotes

    “Fear not your enemies, for they can only kill you...Fear not your friends, for they can only betray you...Fear only the indifferent who permit the killers and betrayers to walk safely on the earth” - Edward Yashinsky. Edward Yashinsky was a Yiddish poet of the early 20th century. While enduring the pains of the Communist concentration he was forced into, he was inspired to write the quote that was previously mentioned. Being subjected to the hunger, thirst, exhaustion, and physical beating from the Nazis, he died in the camp. Him and the millions of others who died for their Jewish religion still live in the hearts and minds of millions more today.…

    Of Mice And Men Quote Analysis

    Throughout the reading of “Of Mice and Men”, written by John Steinbeck, I feel that the one quote that embodies the author’s message of the entire work is located towards the end of the novel. I find that the quote that embodies the message is, “He pulled the trigger.” (106). To me, this quote shows the loyalty of George to Lennie. In the beginning of the novel, we see that George has somewhat rescued Lennie, and taken him away from the danger that he was facing back in Weed.…

    Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God

    In “Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God”, it talked about us being sinners and God was very angry with all of us. It would say things like “The God that holds you over the pit of hell, much as one holds a spider or some loathsome insect over a fire, abhors you, and is dreadfully provoked.” I think that through out this story Edwards is trying to say that since we sin very many times, God gets kind of on edge with us, but he keeps on holding us over hell and doesn’t let us fall in because he is a great God, but once you do something that seriously provokes Him, he may drop you into Hell. This was my interpretation of the story though, I was a little bit confused about it.…

    Rhetorical Analysis Of Sinners In The Hands Of An Angry God

    Lastly, the author expresses his message throughout examples of similies. For instance, in the fifth paragraph Jonathan Ecwards directly states, "The wrath of God is like great waters that are dammed for the present." In this simile the author compares God to great waters, which he is indirectly stating that God is an omnipotent force that cannot be stopped. In comparison to water, once it accumilates the water becomes a powerful, invincible force. Jonathan Edwards uses this similes to inform his audience that God has absolute power and that he will not hesitate to send sinners to their absolute misery of hell.…

    Jonathan Edwards Sinners

    He states that God has a various way which is unsearchable of eliminating wicked people and ultimately sending them to hell. Moreover, he acknowledged that God held and restrained the devil with his mighty and powerful hand from descending onto human beings and destroying them. This is because the old serpent is depicted as being ready to pounce on them when the gate to hell is widely opened willing to swallow evil human beings. Although he concedes to these dark forces and principles that reign in hell are powerful, and he believes they cannot match the power and authority that God possesses. This is because God has subdued and controlled the activities of their wickedness since he is mighty and…

    Jonathan Edwards Second Half Of The Argument

    (28). In one sentence he undermined the “work” that the members of the audience had done during their whole lives. These quotes “hold you over the pit of hell in such as one holds a spider, or some loathsome insect” (33), “hateful venomous serpent”(33), and “the poor worms” (37) overwhelmed the audience with the realization of God’s power. The audience understood that jyst as they could look down at an entire group of bugs with contempt and disregard, God could look down on humans as nothing but pests. All of this helps to enforce the idea that in the eyes of God they are sinners and therefore no more than mere…

    An Analysis of the Movie, Scarface

    Scarface, starring Al Pacino, is the greatest film to ever hit the film industry. Scarface was released in December 1983 and is technically assumed to be a remake of the 1932 Scarface movie. The 1932 Scarface film was centered in Chicago during the Depression-era, however, the 1983 remake shifted the action from Chicago to Miami during the 1980s-era (Bayard). The directors did this on purpose; because the 1980s-era was the time the Mariel Harbor boat lift happened, thus in a approach to give the movie a new relevance (Berardinelli).…
