What’s so great about gatsby 

Was Gatsby even great yes and no. Yes because twords the end of the book when daisy killed toms mistress on accident he took the blame and paid the price with his life, and the no reasoning is because we really didn’t know a lot about him, he only took the blame because he loved daisy but if it were to have been someone else he wouldn’t have taken the blame he would have still be alive in the end. If it would’ve been nick I don’t think gatsby would’ve takes the blame. And speaking of nick, he opens the book by saying he’s an honest person but is he really, just look at the people he hangs out with. Rich snobby people who only care about themselves. And the way Fitzgerald described them is on point saying things like they were careless people and amhow they would always return back to their money. I think what he meant by that is that whenever you have money it doesn’t matter what you do because to them any type of fine is nothing major. And daisies character personality is the young and foolish type. She doesn’t like to think for herself and wants others to do it for her, I wouldn’t let anyone I know date her because should would most likely fool around while being with the person I know. “So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back creaselessly into the past” I think that that fits in to the book because the fun is over now they have to work for what they want they have now stopped going with the current, now there against it.

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...

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. How can Emerson’s on self reliance help me in my life well If I learned anyth...
