For its incredible command of character, its thematic richness, and the endlessly compelling prose, “Rock Springs” is the clear winner of this contest. Ford centers “Rock Springs” around the ...

Because Plato valued reason and logic above anything else, he would have much to say about the sentence reporting that Louise showed “not a glance of reflection, but rather indicated a suspension of intelligent thought” (Chopin). Plato would probably criticize the author who happened not only to come up with the idea that a human being could cease having accurate and objective understanding of what was going around but also offered this idea to the potential readership. So the sentence under discussion shows underestimation of the crucial importance of understanding the reality properly. Plato would surely state ...

We can, however, also demonstrably say that the slowness of the revolution in Canada at least was due to the sheer distances involved in the colonies themselves. This paper will examine the industrial revolution in Canada, moving from general terms to specific ones, in order to show ...

The Achievement of Desire

After reading the “The Achievement of Desire” by Richard Rodriguez, I have a dual feeling about the main idea. At first, it seems that he is right and all the arguments he presents sound very persuasive.

You do not need to be of a different social or racial group to question your parents’ authorities or to make your teacher a role model. It happens in almost all families. This is because you find out that parents do not have answers ...

Motivation is an imperative factor to make a person keep going. It is a vital factor that significantly contributes towards human development and growth.
