His reaction upon realizing that he had killed Polonius was not one of utter shock or one of regret; instead, Hamlet proclaims farewell to the “wretched, rash, intruding fool” (III.iv.33). Also, Hamlet tells Horatio that Rosencrantz and Guildenstern “are not near [his] conscience” (V.ii.58), even after he has ordered the killing of the two.

More knew that if he stayed alive, it would have been sufferable, living in jail for the rest of his life, no job and little sight of family.

... in the long run if Oedipus had not ventured out beyond the walls of Corinth. So is it worth living an examined life?

In the context of his own time, this was meant to imply that life must be examined and reflected upon, known and discovered by each individual philosopher to better enrich life for all. Yet in terms of Sophoclean drama, specifically Oedipus Rex, this was meant in a vastly different way. The unexamined life was one that was in the dark, unknown as to what fate lied beyond every turn and irony of living. Oedipus, up to the point in which he heard the comment in the tavern in ...

... up into two great hostile camps, into two great classes directly facing each other -- bourgeoisie and proletariat" (Marx http://www.anu. edu.au/polsci/marx/classics/manifesto.html#Bourgoise). That was the initial statement of Karl Marx's Manifesto of the Communist party: the distinction of the main two classes, the upper or ruling class, the bourgeoisie, and the lower or working class, the proletariat.

... This poem is choppy at timed, but it flows smoothly at others. Long hyphens throughout the poem slow down reading speed. This could be compared to the rate of decay. Sometimes decay is rapid, sometimes it is slow. the last three parts of the poem’s structure help create its figurative meaning. Imagery is Dickinson’s main figurative tool in this poem. the idea that crumbling is progressive is supported by the last two lines of the first stanza, which state, "Dilapidation’s processes Are organized Decays" This means that crumbling is a result of dilapidation, which is caused by gradual decay.

How many times do you see the names of the students who are trying to make a difference printed in the newspaper compared to the number of times you see our names in the “arrest made” section? It’s bad when children aren’t fortunate enough to be praised for their actions in their own home but they can’t even get it at school anymore.

... of light. Since the prisoners in the underground cave have never known reality other than those shadows, they take them for all that actually is “the whole truth”, and if voices from the world above do reach them, they believe it is the shadows speaking. In comparison of this to our government today, many similarities can be seen. Citizens of our nation today are often “blinded” from the truths that are presented before them.
