Princess Erin Watt Quotes
Paper Princess Erin Watt,“ Besides his sperm my father's watch was the only thing he left behind” (chapter 1). This line was an absolute favorite of mine. It could be interpreted in so many different ways. Her tone could be bitter, feeling as if the man she she was supposed to call father only cared enough to just leave her a lousy watch. Or maybe she means to have a playful tone, laughing at the fact that he was so inconsiderate and that he doesn't deserve any hateful feelings she has to offer. However this simple line is interpreted it can say a lot about her character either way. The fact that this is said so early in the book I believe the author leaves us to make a choice what we think about her character so early on. Weather we believe

    In the story Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck then evidence from the text tells me that George and Lennie has a big brother and little brother relationship by the following quotes from the story “Gi’me that mouse”- George (page 8) “I wasn’t doin’ nothing bad with it, George. Jus strokin’ it.”- Lennie(page 9). These quotes are implying that George is looking out for Lennie like a big brother would do for his little brother. This following quote prove that George cares for Lennie like a brother because he cares for Lennie like a brother. “Cause I want you to stay with me”-George (page 13) . This quote can be interpreted that George doesn’t want Lennie to leave because he cares for him even though he gets on his nerves like a little brother…

    Marie Lu Legend Quotes

    • 11 Pages

    In the book “Legend” by Marie Lu, I would like to have Day be my best friend out of all of the characters. Day has been nothing but caring throughout the whole book to Tess and other characters such as June and his little brother Eden, which is a characteristic that I really admire about Day. An illustration as to where Day was caring to Tess was when he met Tess for the first time. Day was on the streets by himself when he saw her in an alleyway. He called out to her and she ran away from him. Day could tell that Tess was really scared so him stayed put. He did not want to scare Tess, he only wanted to help her. ‘“Stop crying, I’m not going to hurt you.’ I knelt down beside her” (Lu 85). This quote shows Day trying to take…

    | Anne says this in frustration after Mrs. Van Daan yells at her for spilling milk on her coat. This expresses another Anne because it suggests that Anne sees herself changing, that she envisions a different self. I feel that Anne says this because to her, everybody in the Annex shows more favoritism to Margot then her, especially her mother. On the outside it seems Anne can’t always control her temper, as she strives to be more like Margot, who is patient and calm. On the inside, she is jealous of Margot, wanting to have more of an attitude like hers, and convey a better personality to others, contrary to what she’s done. Also Anne is younger, so it is understandable that she'd look up to an older sibling. I can relate to this because many times in our family, I feel as if my parents favor my older sibling over me. I have the same feelings as expressed in this quote, as it is hard to be more mature than somebody older. This quotation suggests change in Anne, as she herself wants to change, and be more socially civil rather than her normal self. Though it conveys negativity on Anne’s character, as she is losing her temper, it also shows maturity, as she is maturing. This quote shows that she is maturing because she now realizes her impact on others, and wants to be more like Margot, who is quite a role model to her. Some questions that occurred were: * Will Anne keep maturing as she is already? *…

    Hyperempathy Quotes

    I am still trying to figure out what happened in this book. I wonder what happened for them to need to put a wall around the neighborhoods. Why are the people so desperate? Why are the resources, such as water, so scarce during these times? I feel especially bad for Lauren since she has hyperempathy. The fact that you could feel other people’s pain, is probably one of the worst things to experience. Especially in her time, where so many people are suffering. I remember when they said in the book about what if everybody had hyperempathy. That got me thinking because, if everybody had the ability to feel people’s pain, then nobody would want to hurt anybody because nobody would want to feel that pain. I feel that it is good that Lauren’s father…
