    The debate over whether adversity reveals hidden talents, which in peaceful situations will remain undiscovered, is a controversial topic. For instance, the poem, “The Proof of Worth” by Edgar Albert Guest explains how hardships display the true nature of a person. Similarly, Patrick Kohan highlights in his article, “The Importance of Adversity in Growth and Development,” how obstacles should not be removed to help a child succeed. Furthermore, Laura Hillenbrand’s novel, Unbroken, showcases the worst challenges elicit of one’s character. Ultimately, one should use adversity to discover hidden talents that once never existed, as well as change the perspective of a convoluted idea.…

    The Great Alexander Pope once said, "Difficulties are things which show what men really are." This statement means that challenges in life display people's true personalities. This quote is true, and many works of literature support this idea. Two pieces of literature that support this statement made by Alexander Pope are Arthur Miller's tragedy, The Crucible, and the novel, To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper Lee.…

    It is generally accepted that hardship would ensue harsher test of one's character than power would. Abraham Lincoln attempted to denounce this belief when he claimed that "Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power." Lincoln illustrates that adversity is something that many men can succeed in spite of while maintaining their character by comparing its effects with those of power. He sustains the idea that a man's character is only truly tested if they are given power because of its corrupting influence. Lincoln's ideas are substantiated in the play Julius Caesar, in which William Shakespeare explores topics of adversity and power. Through his characterization of Julius Caesar, Mark Antony, and Brutus, Shakespeare clearly indicates that the true test of a man's character is, in fact, power rather than adversity.…

    (Reworded thesis) Those who claim to live by a value will come to need the strength of will to stand by it when the pressured to do otherwise. True strength of character will show when a person either falters or stands strong. In a world where the pressure of society can so easily beset those who lack the will to stand in the way, people with the fortitude to face the opposition will stand as a mountain stands in the wind.

    The American Dream

    • 6 Pages

    According to John Fitzgerald Kennedy “ All of us do not have equal talents . But all of us should have an equal opportunity to develop our talents.” Kennedy was basically saying that we might not all have been create equally with the same gifts and talents. Are all of us created equally? Lots of the time we don’t treat each other as if we are all equal. Americans put each other in ranks call social classes. If we had a life without social classes everyone would be the same thing. No one would have to worry about having more power over one another. In the Declaration it quotes “ All mean are created equal” (Jefferson 98) That means that every person is entitled to do anything that the most wealthy man does. For an example a restaurant can’t refuse to serve someone just because of their religion. In America the Declaration makes us equal. No one can take away your rights. We create each others equality. In the text “I Will Fight No More Forever” the native americans were driven out of their own land. ( Chief Joseph 455) There was no equality present. The Natives tried to fight for their rights to stay but they didn’t stand a chance. The American dream is having equal rights, and feeling as if you are wanted or equal. Everyone wants to be excepted by people and to be treated right. To feel as if you are a equal , what would you do? Many immigrants live in the US looking for equal opportunity. They are happier here because had more opportunity.…
