... resist we die." Neither action nor inaction was the key to salvation. Ryker's statement was based on a physical world; the Tao goes beyond action or inaction of a physical sense. The Tao Te Ching states, "the Master does nothing, yet leaves nothing undone."(pg. 38) The Master does not rely on the world of the senses to decide her action.

... and Louise feel a need to change their position in society and they do it by changing the way they communicate. This change in communication between men and women causes the women to take on a stronger and more direct language which also included robbery and murder.

This demonstrates the fact that men and women are bound to communicate differently. In the movie, Thelma and Louise react violently to men who communicate direc ...
... An example of hoe Polonius’ innocent involvement with the royalty results in his death can be found at the beginning of Act III, scene iv, when Hamlet stabs him while he is hiding behind the arras in Gertude’s room. This shows how Polonius, a man unaware of the true nature of the situation he is in, is killed by a member of the royalty during the execution of one of their schemes. This makes Polonius’ death a tragedy. The next member of Polonius’ family to die is his daughter Ophelia. Ophelia’s death is tragic because of her complete innocence in the situation. Some may argue that Polonius deserves his fate because of his deceitfulness in deali ...

... the places where we need it the most. Tuesday, is the first day of the week where we will go out and distribute 200 of the ads to places such as Best buy and Gateway. I site these places first because of the fact that the average house hold mother does all of her shopping earlier in the week as opposed to later in the week. The target audience I plan to promote to will be identified later. On Wednesday, again two people will run off 300 ads and will be prepared to distribute 200 of them on the following day. Thursday will be the day that the store will be closed from 3-5 because I think in the essence of time that everyone present on this day will play a part ...
... hate create a dialogue and dialectic, a dynamic tension which powers the action and generates heat. When I noticed that the two plays this season had settings is Verona, I decided to find out a thing or two about the place. Reading the section on "climate" in Harold Rose's Yur Guide to Northern Italy, I noted that "Italy is a very hot place in the summer, also quite humid." After reading this I then realized that a great deal of the violence in Romeo and Juliet become more understandable; they're all short tempered because of the heat!

... the most popular and successful writer of all time. But what of the man himself? Who was William Shakespeare? The life of William Shakespeare is shrouded in mystery. There is no record of him receiving an education, buying a book or writing a single letter, and no original manuscript of a Shakespeare play survives. There is no direct record of his conversations, and no one in his home town seems to have known that he was a successful playwright while he was alive. There is not even a contemporary portrait to reveal his true appearance. Although a number of mentions of William Shakespeare the poet-dramatist appear on record during the 1590's and early 1600's, t ...
