Number of Words: 1000 / Number of Pages: 4
... men, ideas, and books. Fire plays two very different roles in this book. The role of a destructive, devouring, and life ending force, and the role of a nourishing flame. The first role that fire plays in Fahrenheit 451 is apparent from the very beginning of Bradbury's novel. "IT WAS A PLEASURE TO BURN. It was a pleasure to see things eaten, to see things blackened and changed" (3).

... keep on living.
As it is now, Faust believes that his life is miserable and that being a
part of humanity can only hinder his thirst for knowledge.
The other side gives me little trouble;
First batter this present world to rubble,
Then the other may rise — if that's the plan.
This earth is where my springs of joy have started,
And this sun shines on me when brokenhearted;
If I can first from them be parted,
Then let happen what will and can!
I wish to heat no more about it —
Whether there too men hate and love
Or whether in those spheres too, in the future,
There is a Below or a ...

Imagery In Macbeth
Number of Words: 556 / Number of Pages: 3
... to him. In the following passage, the idea constantly recurs that Macbeth's new honours sit ill upon him, like a loose and badly fitting garment, belonging to someone else:
New honours come upon him,
Like our strange garments, cleave not to their mould,

Beware, those who are thrust into danger,
Clutched at by trouble, yet can carry no solace
