Inkheart Quote Analysis
“A family is a risky venture, because the greater the love, the greater the loss. That’s the trade-off. But I’ll take it all.’’ This quote means that the greater you love a person the harder the loss of that person is to you. Inkheart by Cornelia Funke relates to this quote in her book Inkheart in chapters 29 and 30. I agree with this quote because the quote could relate to you or someone else. On page 285 of Inkheart Meggie say, “Do you miss her- my mother I mean?’’…. Mo answered, “Almost all the time.” This quote of Inkheart relates to quote 1 because Meggie lost her mother at a young age and she loved her so much and losing her is harder now because she miss her so much and the story of what happen to her. This quote also relates

    I believe that this quote from Darwin means a lot. In the book Calpurnia finds out that Harry has gotten a girlfriend. Calpurnia then in the book starts to question Harry’s girlfriend, with questions like “What does she look like” and “Where is she from”. Harry then starts to get a bit irritated due to all the questions. Calpurnia then starts to feel a little bit jealous of Harry and so she starts saying very rude things about his girlfriend, whom she has never met. This then brings starts a series of events that leads to Calpurnia’s mother finding out about her. Harry then becomes extremely angry and doesn't even accept Calpurnia’s apology.…

    The book, Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, is about a futuristic United States where books that are made illegal are burned by fireman. The beginning of the book focuses on a firefighter named Guy Montag who questions his career as a fireman; but it seems clear that he finds no interest in literature and enjoys his job of burning books. There is a quote on the first page stating “The blood pounded in his head, and his hands were the hands of some amazing conductor playing all the symphonies of blazing and burning to bring down the tatters and charcoal ruins of history”. (Page 3) This quote characterizes his pleasure of burning pages and pages of books and shows hatred towards…

    Thirdly, purpose can be used to help the reader determine the tone of text because it demonstrates how a speaker conveyed this context and what the speaker was trying to spark in the audience. Quote by Tom Clancy says, “The difference between fiction and reality? Fiction has to make sense.” Roughly translates that the difference between reality and fiction would be that fiction has to be understandable. Reality doesn’t necessarily need an explanation, it is what it is. Most people are more likely to question fiction rather than questioning reality due to the fear of being wrong. Fear is a strong emotion that thrives in every human being in the world. Fear can either motivate or it intimidate a person, it all depends on who the person is. That…

    And the stronger the love, the more that pain, but love bears all things. Love itself is a pain, you might say, but is the pain of being truly alive," says Joseph Campbell. this to me means that with love comes dangers of pain. Inside each one of us as we love a hypothetical fire burns. This fire so to speak is our passionate needs for this other person. Though this person helps us keep the fire tame, they also can send it into a blazing whirlwind deep inside of us. So basically its like a double edged knife. Sure you can hold it and touch the dull or sharpened side but that doesn't mean you won't get cut.…

    Their writings are also contrasting in many ways. Like the disparity between these two quotes which have the same topic “What is the point of a nation in which Arab cabbies chauffeur Jewish passengers, too, and yet speak in theory of hatred, one for the other?” (Quindlen, 14). “Similarly, every aspect of the American economy has profited from the contributions of immigrants. We all know, of course, about the spectacular immigrant successes: the men who came from foreign lands, sought their fortunes in the United States and made striking contributions, industrial and scientific, not only to their chosen country but to the entire world” (Kennedy, 24). These quotes both show divergent types of diction even though they are about the same things which is immigrants. Quindlen’s quote show she is…

    Love an Loss

    The other reason why this quote is true is if you don’t “lose” in love you can never learn from your experiences with love and loss for later in life. How do you know how to love? How do you know who to love? How do you know how to handle loss of love? You don’t if you have never loved and learned from that experience. Love is an incredibly powerful word. When you're in love, you always want to be together, and when you're not, you're thinking about being together because you need that person and without them your life is incomplete. You…

    “Here a question arises: whether it is better to be loved than feared, or the reverse. The answer is, of course, that it would be best to be both loved and feared. But since the two rarely come together, anyone compelled to choose will find greater security in being feared than in being loved. . .. Love endures by a bond which men, being scoundrels, may break whenever it serves their advantage to do so; but fear is supported by the dread of pain, which is ever present.”…
