.... the worship of one supreme god a polytheistic religion comparable to those of the ancient Greeks, Latins, Indians and other early peoples. Its other salient feature, namely dualism, was never understood in an absolute, rigorous fashion. Good and Evil fight an unequal battle in which the former is assured of triumph.

He does so with his soul and body, not against his body, for the opposition between good and evil is not the same as the one between spirit and .....

.... see as many parks as possible in their short vacation time. They have to deal with things such as: car troubles, traffic, hotel rooms, other visitors pushing them onward, their bored children, and the long trip home in a flood of cars. Many of them take tons of pictures, possibly so that they can actually enjoy the park without all of the hassles (Abbey 58). Without leaving their cars they will never actually experience the beauty and wonderment of the parks. They will only find the stress and chaos that they sought to leave at home (Abbey 59). There is a minority though, that prefers t .....

.... has many quotes that describe Napoleon as a leader, “ ‘long live Comrade Napoleon’ ” (846). All the animals on the farm (no matter what Napoleon did to them) would treat him as a powerful leader and whatever he said they would do. Often Orwell stirs up controversy about the rebellion, “ ‘forward in the name of the rebellion. ‘Long live Animal farm!’ ‘Long live Comrade Napoleon!’ ‘Napoleon is always right.’ Those were his very last words, comrades’ ” (849). Squealer’s letting everyone know that no .....

.... photographer as portrayed by Dennis Hopper in Apocalypse Now bear a striking likeness in not only their physical appearance, but there state of mind as well. However, Dorall continues deeper into abyss of interrupting these two novels by pointing out subtle variances. He first mentions the fact that the characters on the riverboat in the novel lack the depth and development of a true character. On the other hand, the film takes time and effort to develop each individual character on the patrol boat, thus creating some sort of personality that the audience can relate to and take comfort in. .....

For that purpose someone would have to .....

.... refuses to comply but will not explain his reasons: "What is wanted?" said he (Bartleby) mildly. "The copies, the copies," said I hurriedly. "We are going to examine them. There" and I held towards him the fourth quadruplicate. "I would prefer not to," he said, and gently disappeared behind the screen. "Why do you refuse?" "I would prefer not to"(20). Bartleby's actions show that he is an outcast of society. His attitude toward his work is symbolic of his alienation from life. He prefers not to work or live. In fact, he refuses to become involved in even the most ordinary aspects of l .....

.... that most people were nice. She just had to put herself in those people's situations. "As I made my way home, I thought Jem and I would get grown but there wasn't much else left for us to learn, except possibly algebra."
