.... man, who “...went on dragging me (Terri) around the living room. My head kept knocking on things.... What do you do with love like that?.... People are different, Mel. Sure, sometimes he may have acted crazy. Okay. But he loved me. In his own way maybe, but he loved me.” (pp 110-111) To the reader, it seems hard to believe that there could be love in a relationship where one partner physically abuses the other. However, in Terri’s case, both Terri and her ex-husband felt that they were in love. This coincides with the author’s theme that early on in a relationship, people have misconceptions about their love. Later .....

.... a good place for Old Majors vision and has necessary isolation from the world for the development of this society. This makes life easier in the since that it is away from the modern world typical of the Twentieth Century. If this novel was set anywhere other than a farm, the characters would be irrelevant and the story it self would have no meaning. The story would also be hard to understand and follow. Without the rural setting of this farm, Napoleon would not have been able get the power he so desperately wanted through this revolt. The revolt would not have occurred if this novel had been set in an urban area or city, which in result would st .....

.... nature depends upon the environment in which they are immersed. The idea that children, not humans in general, are swayed by the ideas and actions of their parental figures is also a central idea of the book, "The Lord of the Flies" by William Golding. Because of the war in England where the boys were from their human experience was one of war. If there was no war going on in England at the time they were evacuated from England, there would've been no deaths, no Lord of the Flies, and certainly no beast. Because if they had came with a good human nature then how would there have been a beast which Golding classified as the basic evil inside .....

.... others. “This is mine, that’s mine,� (458) says Big Butt as he looks through the windows at all the toys. It is a child’s instinct to want, and I believe this was a lesson in itself. The fact that the children all wanted the toys that they saw but they couldn’t afford them made them think. It made them realize that the toys within the window looked good but were thy really worth what they cost? “…$480 it don’t make sense…� (458) The value of a dollar and how it is spent was one lesson the children understand and the phrase Money doesn’t grow on trees. “..I kinda held back…I feel funny, shame�,(460) says Sylivia as s .....

.... was not happy, but he did not know why. He thought maybe because his wife had pulled the fire alarm on him, but really it was he did not love her at all. "It's strange, I don't miss her at all(155)" Montag had uncertainly about his marriage, because marriage was suppose to be bonded with love, but with his marriage love was extinct and nowhere to be seen. His life had died, when his wife Mildred pulled the alarm and had told the firemen that Montag had books. To Montag, the books was like a sweet piece of candy. He did not know why he liked them, but he always wanted more. But when Captain Beatty forced Montag to burn his own house, Montag's so .....

.... you started bein' a girl and acting right!"(115). Scout was reasonably appalled by his new manner, and asked Atticus about it. "Reckon he's got a tapeworm?"(115). Although Scout's conceptions about his [Jem's] behavior may have been wrong in some respects, she was right to recognize he wasn't acting his usual self. I believe these behavioral changes may have been because of Jem acquiring a mask. He began wearing this mask around the start of his teenage years, as a result of pressures from peers, and a fear of not being accepted. Even in these different social and economic times, the 1930's, issues like popularity and social acceptance were real and .....

.... to leave pay for the candles. I think that Tom and Huck are very smart boys, when Huck snuck out of the house Tom pretended that he was a cat to get Hucks attention. If he hadn't done this the widow might have caught them leaving in the middle of the night. Twain shows their resourcefulness when he writes, "Directly I could just barely hear a me-yow! me-yow! down there. That was good! Says I, me-yow! me-yow! as soft as I could, and then I put out the light and scrambled out of the window on to the shed." This shows the boys resourcefulness and intelligence. I think it is sick that the group of boys made their own gang. The gang planned to rob peo .....
