Steroids Should Be Banned It is amazing what athletes will do to achieve higher levels of performance and to sometimes get the extra edge on the competition. Most of the time people do not realize the long-term effects that result from the decisions they make early in life. This resembles the use of steroids in a person’s life.

Beauty and Evil are never far apart in Keats’s poetry” how far do you agree with this view? “She seem’d‚ at once‚ some penanced lady elf‚ Some demon’s mistress‚ or the demon’s self.” Beauty and evil cannot come much closer than when being in the same quote‚ and much of Keats’s work is pockmarked with references to these two seemingly unrelated conditions‚ and I feel is notable‚ if not key‚ to much of Keats’s work.
