Titanic: The Rich And The Poor
... the poor people’s quarters were below the rich people’s. The director of the movie created large, elegant suites for the rich. These rooms were filled with beautiful pictures on the well-papered walls, beautiful carpet, extravagant furniture, and windows with blinds and drapes. The rooms the poor stayed in were very small rooms with no pictures on the gray wall and no furniture except a bunk bed, of which whomever slept on top had to be careful to not bump his head on the ceiling.

... his merits in war. Thus, Shakespeare has
set Hal and Hotspur in opposition: Hal, the prodigal prince, versus Hotspur,

Teiresias, the voice of fate and harbinger of truth in Sophocles' play
Antigone, humbly enters the drama by addressing the malevolent Creon and stating
