In Thoreau’s words



“The language of friendship is not words but meanings” 
here he is saying that anyone can say something but a real friend will mean it, for example people will always be your friend when you have money and leave when you blow through it but a real friend was there before the money was there and after the money is gone 

“I am greatful for what I am and have. My thanksgiving is prepetual” 
when he say he is greatful for who he is and what he has he means that he doesn’t he more he is fine with what he has and when he says his thanksgiving is prepetual it means it’s never ending because he is always thankful for what he has

“It is never to late to change your prejudice”
Here he is saying no matter how old you are it is never to late to change your way of judging people before you really get to know them, this is something society has been doing for many many years and he is saying it is never to late to change your ways

Dynamic character       Guy montag he is the character that the story is about. He’s also the dynamic character that changes as the story is being told. Montag goes from hating books and burning them to reading them and wanting to put an end to to books being against the law. So in the following paragraphs I will explain why he is a dynamic character.      Now to start off why montag is a dynamic character. My first reason is because at the start of the book it’s him conducting the kerosene hose burning down the tatters and charcoal ruins of history. To be broken down, basically he was burning books and enjoying it. But as we keep on reading he seems to slowly be changing but one day when he is talking to Mildred saying he’s not happy and wants to do something big, so he goes up to the air conditioner pulls back the grille reaches far back . . .  and pulls out a book. We then find out that he has more and has had them for about a year. This is good evidence of a dynamic ch

On self reliance essay On self reliance by Emerson the total itself is explanatory, why you may ask, because by the title it self you know that Emerson is it encouraging people to NOT realy on others. Basically he is telling us you do your thing and don’t care about what others think about you, you do you and that’s what he’s saying in the following quote “what I must do is all that concerns me,not what the people think” The way his tone is set is so that he does not display any emotion all though he still cares because he want the reader to know that you don’t need others to tell you what to do because if you are told what to do all the time you won’t think for yourself and depend on others to think for you. And the way he organizes his words is all planned he knew what he was doing he would talk about one subject first and than the next subject was related to what he was just talking about.
