.... between them. They seem like a couple in their 80's who are sick and tired of each other. The fact that they came from rich families probably attributed to their snobby behavior. The attitude in the first chapter showed a lot of the ugliness attributed to wealth. Tom especially showed little and at times no sign of a pleasant attitude while Nick visited his home. He always found a way to throw in that he was better than Nick, "I've got a nice place here." and when he blurted out that he had " never heard of them " (the company that Nick was working for) just to make him fell superio .....

.... flaws are entirely different, however. The purpose of the plot in The Trial is to show the downfalls of a judicial system that is run without the public’s knowledge or input. Kafka wants the reader see the flaws in their judicial system and to become actively involved in the judicial reforms. He wants the reader to see that these flaws should not just be brushed off as mere inconveniences. He uses K. to show the life-altering (and in K.’s case, life-ending) effects that judicial flaws can have on the public. His arrest, his search for answers, and his trial and eventual execution .....

.... [Daisy] dressed in white, and had a little white roadster…" (p. 75) She also dresses her daughter in white. Even in Daisy’s name we see white. The Daisy is a white and yellow flower. Daisy also often became physically white. "His [Gatsby’s] heart beat faster and faster as Daisy’s white face came up to his own." (p. 112) It is obvious that Daisy is a very white character. As far as purity goes Daisy spends a great deal of time trying to appear pure with her white possessions. Perhaps she is pure to some extent but she is, at least, undoubtedly white. Green is Gatsby’s color in the .....

.... wrong relationship. It just implies that the characters are both dedicated to their relationship not being positive. In a realistic relationship, there are constant factors interfering with the relationship, and opinions of the other change and vary throughout the work. Claire Kemp, in her short story, “Keeping Company” gives an example of a relationship that is controlled by the male. He suppresses his wife. Perhaps the cause of this is his own insecurity with the relationship. Securing her love for him has taken precedent over him providing love for her. The couple’s current resid .....

.... tribulations of everyday “normal” life for the children and people who live here. Normal for them however is quite different than it is for most of us. Living with drug dealers, pollution, poor hospital care and an abominable education system not to mention the social system of the city, is the “norm” for these children. In his interviews with the children of this squalid neighborhood, we find that the children speak honestly and freely about their feelings. Forgotten, hidden, abandoned, are just some of the words that come to mind. One boy named “Malcolm X” wears his hair i .....

.... simplest way to achieve salvation was to buy it. The character of the Pardoner is truly one of the books most evil-hearted and despicable, for he is the person who can “sell” salvation. He takes total advantage of his position intimidating people into buying his pardons, indulgences, and holy relics. The Pardoner has no real concern for the sinners, he only wants his money, as shown on page 243, where he says “Out come the pence, and specially for myself, for my exclusive purpose is to win and not at all to castigate their sin. Once dead what matter how their souls may fa .....

.... himself a true Jew because he (unlike Rueven) wears the traditional side curls and is educated in Yiddish. At first the two boys cannot stand each other, many times Danny refers to Rueven as "apikorsim," (32) which basically translates to... someone who is not true to their religion. These differences between the two soon become obsolete with one unfortunate accident, and make them realize they could use each other to get through some hard times. "Silence is all we dread. There's ransom in a voice--But Silence is infinity."-Emily Dickinson Emily Dickinson's quote can be related to the .....
