    this quote relates to the play as a whole. “And yet to say the truth‚ reason and love keep little company together nowadays” This quote from act 3‚ scene 1 in Shakespeare’s play A Midsummers Night Dream‚ seems so insignificant when Bottom‚ a simple and silly workman with the head of an ass‚ expresses this to Titania Queen of the Fairies. She has recklessly fallen in love with Bottom at first sight as a result of the love potion placed upon her by Oberon King of the Fairies. But this quote in fact

    “There is a way to be good again”. This quote is one of the remarkable quotes of this book. It is used in the beginning of the novel to make it more interesting. The choice of using this quote was very smart‚ since it explains a lot of the plots just in one sentence. This was said by Rahim Khan who is very close to Amir. He is a person Amir respects very much and he is the one who tells Amir about his dad and Hassan being his step brother. This quote brings out the feeling of guilt Amir was feeling

    I choose this quote because it shows how Gandalf is perceived from the hobbits. I think Bilbo’s opinion will change if he decides to go on this quest and I hope he has a better opinion of Gandalf and adventures. I think this quote shows that Gandalf has been out of the radar with the last line with Bilbo saying “I had no idea you were still in the business” which I interpret that Gandalf has been away. Maybe on a big quest? This quote came from Thorin while talking about the quest. Thorin is very

A spell was broken.” This quote‚ coming from chapter 23 in The Scarlet Letter‚ shows another example of how Dimmesdale attempts to free his soul before he dies. Throughout this entire chapter‚ Dimmesdale tries to cleanse his heart by telling the townspeople that he is not the man that they know and love. Instead‚ he is a sinner who has committed adultery with Hester

    Quote #1: Greta and pressure It is clear to see that Greta lays in the leaves waiting for June to find her‚ this is Greta’s way of escaping reality‚ Greta escapes because she feels like she is moving too fast‚ she purposely waits for June almost like a child waiting for their parent. “I could see a light reflecting off a pair of glasses. The glasses were on a face. Greta’s muddy face. Just her on the forest floor‚ her shiny black hair pulled back tight and those round silver-framed glasses […] I

    “I realized then that surviving / the peace was up to me.” – Narrator (Northrup‚ Jim. Walking the Rez Road: Stories. Fulcrum Publishing‚ 2013. Print. 4.) This quote was rather strange to me. It’s hard to imagine that someone’s life experiences were so chaotic and screwed up that in time of peace and serenity they are struggling and confused. My life is so hectic I would pay money to have just a week of no stress‚ no problems‚ just peace. “Didja ever wonder / when it would end? / It ended for my
