.... rice and fish and the boy knew this too." (16) To keep his pride, and in almost denial, the old deteriorating fisherman pretends there is a meal ready to eat in the presence of the boy when there isn't a freshly caught fish in a 10 mile radius of the dilapidated shack. It's hard to accept that the fishing glories from the past are but a memory for Santiago as he welcomes poverty with humble hands. The phrase "Nobody loves you when you're down and out" depicts the relationship regarding Santiago with the town perfectly. When he was catching great fish and winn .....

.... men in the room force the boys to look at the dancer, while others threaten them when they do. It is clear that at the time that this story was written, black men could never show any kind of attraction towards white women.

How that relates to the story is that the group of black boys are not suppose to be attracted to the exotic dancer as they are not suppose to be attracted to the idea of being equal with white people. This is why some of the boys try to hide the fact that they a .....

.... of Revelations, in which we see seven candlesticks, seals, angels, plagues, and stars among others. The tone of Revelations enforces the strength and uncontrollable certainty of mortality at the end of the tale, as well as implying the presence of a divine power of judgment without explicitly stating it. The interpretation of the seven rooms contributes to Poe's allegory of man's absolute mortality, and also offers a prime example of the ambiguity one finds in Poe's work. The omnipresent clock in the story is a clear representation of the power and presence of ti .....

.... think of tramps as being dangerous. About that Orwell says: "Quite apart from experience, one can say a priori that very few tramps are dangerous, because if they were dangerous they would be treated accordingly. A casual ward will often admit a hundred tramps in one night, and these are handled by a staff of at most three porters. A hundred ruffians could not be controlled by three unarmed men. Indeed, when one sees how ramps let themselves be bullied by the work house officials, it is obvious that they are the most docile, broken-spirited creatures imagi .....

.... in the year 1676. In her narrative she relates the story of her survival in the wilderness for a period of three months. She is taken away from her home and husband, "all was gone (except my life); and I knew not but the next moment that might go too" (127). Benjamin Franklin's The Autobiography is an account of his life and begins with his boyhood life in Boston. He later flees to Philadelphia to escape his brother's rule over him. He relates how he was "dirty", "fatigu'd", and "Want of Rest" (222). In these depictions we can see an analogy. These in .....

.... say, trying to find out what’s on her mind. “You see, until now we haven’t found anyone that possibly could have gone into Mrs Alpher’s apartment, without anyone noticing him or her”. “You’ve got a point there”, I responded, what was on her mind ? That blue dress certainly showed her fine curves, actually I coundn’t get her of my mind most of the time. “Well, her apartment lies on the corner of Main Street and Baker Street, there’re three windows, one on Baker St. and one Main St. plus one in the .....
