The invisible realm is only able to be understood by the mind‚ not through the senses‚ while the visible realm can be understood through the senses of the body. Plato discusses that the body is composite and a compound by nature; therefore‚ able to be split up. Whereas‚ the soul remains the same and in the same state.

    Life in a big city is different from life of a village or a small town. The hustle and bustle which is found in the cities is not in the small places.

One evening I had just sat down to watch the darkened scene below‚ when I saw a young looking man walking quickly toward a running

    The experiences of the Invisible Man are so real and true with such rich imagery. Even today some 40 to 50 years later prejudice still rings throughout society like a loud‚ annoying bell. Some of us today still haven’t learned to treat all people equal and I think that is what makes the book so great that it will most likely never die out‚ no matter what era‚ what age the book will always relate to society and the lives of people. All ages can read it and understand and also it has unique style
