Lai Response to “All is fair love in war”
To me, “All is fair in love and war” means that there is two sides to every story in life. Just because two people have two different opinions on something doesn’t mean that either of them are right or wrong in the disagreement or topic. In other words, everyone will not agree with you in life, but we have the freedom of speech which is fair. Another idea about this saying is the thought about how love and war are both fair, even though they both aren't. Love is not fair because no matter what, people will always get hurt whether they deserve it or not. This is easily found in couples nowadays because in this generation it's harder to get along

    Quotes From 'All Quiet On The Western Front'

    “That day was the first time I took a life. It troubled me for weeks afterward, until I realized I would go mad if I continued to dwell upon it. Many do, and they become so grief-ridden. They can no longer be relied upon, or their hearts turn to stone and they lose the ability to distinguish right from wrong” (193). This quote was made by the elf Arya while she was consoling Eragon on feeling guilty about all the enemies he had killed. This quote was said when Eragon and Arya were traveling back to the Varden and just after the pair had escaped from a group of Galbatorix’s soldiers, but unfortunately they had to kill all of the soldiers so their whereabouts would not be discovered. This passage stands out because it has a deeper meaning than many of the other things…

    Life Is Not Fair Analysis

    Not everyone believes that life is not fair, but everyone eventually will reach a point in your life that this will come into play. For example, “At the front door, we saw fire spewing from Miss Maudie’s dining room windows (Lee 69)”. Miss Maudie did not plan this. She lost everything in her house. Maudie did not think anything like this would happen ever, which is not fair in her part. Therefore, when people say life is not always fair there are right for sure. People who could be the kindest and nicest person on earth or the rudest person on earth do not deserve this either way.…

    Art of War: a response paper

    I read the Art of War during my high school year as a outside of the class reading book assigned by my language art teacher. I told him I was going to major in business (marketing). So when I first started reading the Art of War I was like “hey, if I have all the time in this world I could have think of all of these stuffs.” I had a big ego that time. Then I had a discussion about the Art of War with my physics teacher(he’s a genius literally, speaks 7-8 languages, mid twenties, doing his PhD. and also teaching). I asked him about the book why this is the knowledge in this book is something I could have think of. He replied something like this: “all the knowledge in this level are like this. It’s may not seem very deep and intriguing to me. However, let a hundred people read this book. They will all interpret differently. It is as if an exotic ingredient waiting to be made into some ridiculously complex dishes. Each chef will make them differently. Depending on the chefs’ expertise. That is why it the knowledge has been used in the business field for decades. To a common people they may think “hey, I could have thought of these stuffs” but they could never improvise those knowledge into practice. That is what separates the people reading this book. Sun Tzu may write quite simply in sentences, but it’s all the interpretation of each individual to put into practice that makes the book so powerful.” To say the least a big part of my ego has been removed. I have never thought of such common thing to be this powerful.…
