I believed that he found what he was…

Physically both Bromden and McMurphy are huge. But, unlike McMurphy, Bromden does not have the self-confidence to match his gigantic exterior. This contrast in personality is due to the idea that Bromden has constantly been maltreated for the entirety of his life.

    Victor Frankenstein Abortion Quotes

    In Walton's final letter to his sister, Walton then regains control of the narrative, continuing the story in the form of letters. He tells her that he believes in the truth of Victor's story. He retells the words that the monster speaks to him over Victor's dead body. This eruption of angry self-pity as the monster questions the wrong doing of how he has been treated badly captures his inner life, giving Walton a glimpse into the suffering that has motivated his crimes. This line also wakes the concept of abortion: the monster is an unwanted life, a creation abandoned and neglected by his creator. After seeing that his creator, Victor is dead, the monster then departs for the northernmost ice to die.…

    Story of an Hour Response

    Although, over stricken with grief and sadness at first, soon she comes to accept the incident with surprising nonchalance. Even worse, this nonchalance soon transforms into ecstasy, or “monstrous joy” according to her, as she realizes that now she is completely free, free from all her conjugal duties, free from the overbearing influence of her husband, and most importantly free to lead her life the way she wishes. Although at first, she herself is repulsed by the very idea, soon she comes to accept and even enjoy it. However, as she slowly comes to term with the notion of this new found freedom and confidence, and decides that she is ready to face the world on her own- this apparently new world, full of wonders and little surprises that she never before had the opportunity to notice or relish- the story ends with a twist. It just so happens that Mr. Mallard was never even near the sight of the accident that was thought to have ended his life. And as he enters the house, the sight of him shocks Louise to death, as all her new-found dreams are brought crushing to the ground with this earth shattering revelation. Not knowing any better, the doctor declares that she died of the sudden shock of happiness.…
