Those teachers were also the ones that had to relearn the algebra and science lessons a few days before they taught them to us, .....

.... knows that he will never be able to have her for his own, and he accepts this as fact. This is clear when the Count asks them ³why don¹t you get married, you two? (68)² To this question, they give a lame half hearted awnser which implies that it will never happen. He is tolerant of her behavior because he loves her unconditionally and is willing to overlook everything she does. Jake¹s willingness to endure and forgive Brett¹s promiscuity and infidelity is an indication of the skewed values of the age. It was an ³anything goes² era right after the first war, and Jake¹s message to Brett seems to be the same: anything goes as long as you eventu .....

.... writes about how much she loved pineapples, this is my favorite scene that I can recall. Maya Angelou's Uncle Willie interests me the most in this book.

At this point the only ideas that intrigue me, are being crippled like Uncle Willie and what Uncle Willie would have to do if the Klan was coming. The reason why what Uncle Willie would have to do if the Klan was coming intrigues me, is because it makes me think about what I would be feeling if I were in his position.

[and decided this was] one of those things kids go through and that I shouldn't make it seem important."(49) This quote is an example of how the narrator viewed his brother. He not only thought Sonny acted as a kid, but was also too young to be planning a future or career. "He still wasn't a man yet, he was still a child, and they had to watch out for him in all kinds of ways."(51) The narrator decided that he would plan Sonny's future and when Sonny rebelled, the narrator saw it as yet another childish action. Another way in which the narrator's overal .....
