    What I think Jackie Robinson is trying to say in his quote is that if you are someone that sits around and lets everything happen in life without doing anything about it. Then basically you are watching big things happen, when you can be doing big things yourself. In my opinion I feel that somedays I am somebody who watches what happens, and on other days I am the person who makes things happen. Like for example if I'm having a bad day I will usually let it unfold. But on other days I might find ways to not let my day get worse by hanging out with a friend or playing hockey. Another example is on my hockey team I am always trying to make big plays, even when we are having a bad game. But if I'm the one having a bad game I'm the one who…

    She is a naïve virgin who excitedly marries a shallow rich and emotionless Marquis. She comes from a family who is not quite poor but with limited financial resources you need to get married to survive; she is aware that marquis is well endowed and insists that although she cannot resist him but does not love him; the marriage is simply how it ought to be. But, choosing to be swept away by glamour and wealth she continues to ignore the dangers.

At the time this makes her excited due to her naivety, this is made clear when she says she recalls, "for the first time in my innocent and confined life, I sensed in myself a potentiality for corruption that took my breath away."
