Barn Burning
Number of words: 1129 - Number of pages: 5.... they are. Sarty, somewhere deep down wants to just do what is right, but being roughly 10 years old, I don’t think he quite has that figured out yet.

We see this in the way he addresses his family, in the way he communicates with other characters, and most importantly in his outrageous stunts in his attempts to prove that know .....

A Comparison Of Hero Ethics: Ancient To Modern
Number of words: 282 - Number of pages: 2.... and Batman. The differences between the two jump right off the page, so I will start with that.

He had long battles with The Joker, though neither would ever die because then the ratings would fall. But Batman would always be there to save the day, even though he never actually kills his opponent except in the movies. Of course, the complete opposite of this is Beowulf.
Beowulf cannot win a battle unless .....

The road that will be chosen leads to the unknown, as does any choice in life. As much as he may strain his eyes to see as far the road stretches, eventually it surpasses his vision and he can never see where it is going to lead.
