Prized Possessions
.... leather encompasses the cabin and provides the occupants with pure extravagance. The climate control keeps the occupants comfortable so that they might enjoy their surroundings. Power windows allow the inhabitants to enjoy the fresh breeze without having to do meager peasant work such as rolling the windows down manually. The stereo system is of the highest quality. It provides rich, deep bass that rattles your insides when the speakers hit. What makes this system so amazing is how it mixes the low bass with the high treble to produce a harmonious intonation. As an added bonus, the graphic equalizer allows me to customize .....

“The Legacy Of One.”
.... want to go. So he went, and stayed out for a long time. I told grandpa and grandma I was worried but they told me to settle down. I was so scared and my whole body ached.

Antigone
.... grave mistake and to change his decision before it is too late because no men should conflict with the will of god’s. It is hard for creon to believe that there is any higher authority. Haemon, Creon’s son and Creaon’s advisor, Tiresias both fail to redeem Creon of his pride. Heamon fails to change his father’s mind for many different reasons.
Even before Haemon presented himself as weak and inferior to his father “ Far be it from me – I haven’t the shill, and certainly no desire, to tell you when, if ever, you make a slip in speech…. Though someone else might have a good suggestion.”(766-769) Haemon uses words like if, might, .....

Swift's "A Modest Proposal"
.... Swift had no intention of pursuing his proposal any further.
One of the other voices that is present throughout the entire story is that of sarcasm. In order to understand this further, a reader has to comprehend that Swift, becoming infamous after Gullivers Travels, was a member of the upper-class. Right from the first paragraph Swift attempts to fool his readers by the sarcasm of the dreary scene that Swift presents. For example, he mentions that it is a melancholy sight to see beggars and their children on the street. The sarcastic paradox in this statement is whether it is a melancholy object for him, having to see homele .....

The initial groundwork for Berkeley's position is the truism that the materialist is a skeptic. In the writing of his three dialogues, Berkeley develops two characters: Hylas (the materialist) and Philonous (Berkeley himself). Philonous draws upon one central supposition of the materialist to formulate his argument of skepticism against him; this idea is that one can never perceive the real essence of anything. In short, the materialist feels that the information r .....

My Childhood
.... Also, they taught me gender roles, the behavioral expectations associated with gender. This was done by giving me specific types of toys to play with, teaching me about other men in my family, and having me observe the roles of other men in my family. To teach me the difference between right and wrong, my parents used various types of punishment. A punishment is any painful or discomforting stimulus that reduces the frequency with which the behavior occurs. For example, I used to stay out past curfew frequently. To punish me, my parents would restrict me from going out with my friends.
It was these friends who provid .....
