.... but ha can also be very extreme at some times. An instance of Proctor's extremity was when he shouted, "I say - I say - God is dead!"(Pg. 119), and that he will see all of them burn in hell. That statement implied to the court that Proctor worshipped the Devil and committed perjury. When Proctor tore the warrant issued for the arrest of Elizabeth showed his ability to defy the court and in a way his religion because the court was controlled by religion. Keeping Mary Warren from court was extreme because he was keeping her from doing her duty and from feeling important for the first time. .....

While Dr. Jekyll is unable to allow this part of his personality to show when he is with his friends, by creating a new being for himself, he is able to express himself without being judged as Dr. Jekyll.

Summary Of Terkel's My American Century
Number of words: 860 - Number of pages: 4

.... reading doesn't really concentrate on all of the things he did as a Klan member, except to say that he did particularly “hate” one of the black people in town more than most-Ann Atwater. He claimed to hate her specifically because every time he went into town, she was leading some kind of demonstration. I didn't think she would really be all that important to the rest of the story, but in my eyes she's the most important. To make a long story short, Mr. Ellis began going to meetings for the city council or something of that sort. It was there that he decided he could start .....

Wife Of Bath
Number of words: 264 - Number of pages: 1

.... of true love.  The reason why she has gone through so many husbands is because her ideal husband is one who permits her to do whatever she wants.  Of course, in the 1990's and even back in the 1500's, that kind of spouse is hard to find.
