Memorable Quotes: A significant quote which was told as a lesson to Santiago by Melchizedek is‚ "It’s this: that at a certain point in our lives‚ we lose control of what’s happening to us‚ and our lives become controlled by fate. That’s the world’s greatest lie"(Coelho 18).

She characterizes one of the ongoing thematic elements of guilt throughout the play and this finally leads to her death in the end.

In the play OEDIPUS THE KING BY SOPHOCLES‚ Oedipus is almost dependent on his brother in-law and fellow ruler Creon. “O King Apollo! May Creon bring us good fortune and rescue‚ bright as the expression I see on his face” (SOPHOCLES 8). This quote demonstrates the truth that Oedipus is mostly dependent on Creon. He sends Creon to seek answer from the God Apollo‚ to find answers to the death of the city Thebes. Oedipus’s reliance on Creon for answers emphasizes both his blindness‚ impotence‚ and lack

Quotation Assignment 1. “We must strive to be like the moon.” An old man in Kabati said on page 16. This quote means that the moon reminds Beah of what kind of life he had back then when there was no war to run away from and he was still enjoying his child hood days with his family. I could connect the moon to my life and the world in a way that the moon is like light in the darkness during the night time. The night sometimes brings fear to people but the moon break that fear and turns it to
