Anne Morrison Quotes

The quote that Anne states in her diary on July 1944 was, “In spite of everything, I still believe people are good at heart”, was a way for Anne to show what she was really made up of on the inside. Anne is a really kind person in her heart. Anne is also a very caring person because of some of the things she does such as give presents. Anne tries to stay positive in every situation that she can, even when things get bad. And that is why I think Anne thought of that quote while writing in her diary about daily events that happened before and while in the secret annex.

“It's a wonder I haven't abandoned all my ideals, they seem so absurd and impractical. Yet I cling to them because I still believe in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.” (Anne Frank) Anne Frank was one of the many children who fell victim to the Holocaust during the World War II. Anne’s story is nothing short of a tragedy; she died at the early age of fifteen from Typhus while being held by the Nazi Regime, in the concentration camp Bergen-Belsen. Before dying, Anne and her family went into hiding and lived secretly in her father's office building in the Netherlands. While living in the “Annex,” a secret hiding place, she developed many interests such as reading and writing. Anne is famous because she is one of the best-known victims of the Holocaust, her story has been shared with millions in a publication of her diary, and through her writing’s she introduces many people to the massacre and its horror.

Many say that events, good and bad, from childhood shape a person’s future. Things like the death of a loved one, domestic violence, expectations and economic struggles can surely mould one's true self. However, the gap between finding the person they want to become and the one to avoid becoming is controlled solely by the way one chooses to handle these things in life. This is directly connected to the novel, Crow Lake by Mary Lawson, in which the life of Kate Morrison and her three siblings is depicted. The children are faced with tragedy when both their parents are killed in a fatal car accident and they are left orphaned to fend for themselves. The novel perfectly embodies what it takes to get through extremely tough times and push in order

With over a half million deaths the most gruesome war in American history drove citizens to action. The suffering during this era was so great many were inspired by nationalism to act. For those who were unable to join the fight upon the battlefield, espionage represented a chance for personal involvement. Although it is believed that many agents never sought recognition for their service, especially Confederate scouts, documentation depicts the espionage present during the American Civil War to be surprisingly sophisticated. By examining the recorded history involving active female intelligence agents in the American Civil War, we can see the roles of female scouts were severely underestimated, frequently encouraged, and generally

"The Diary of Anne Frank" tells us a story about how her life as a Jew was drastically changing during the Holocaust and the start of World War II (WWII). She was a very intelligent young woman that had hopes and dreams. Anne was a normal teenager trying to find her way in life. All of that changed when the Nuremburg Race Laws were formed. Her father who was a World War I fighter hid his family and friends in a Secret Annex that was blended in with a normal neighborhood. As she lived for months in the Secret Annex, Frank had written her diary, full of her experiences in the Annex. Everything changed though, when she reached the end of her times in the Annex. Hitler's men had found Anne and her family and friends. This memoir adds in to the

“Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry, is the best kind of historical fiction in which valuable lessons from the past can be learned.” (Commonsensemedia.org) So begins Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry, a novel about an African American family growing up in the times of segregation. In this novel Taylor teaches us many lessons but one indeed stands out and that is that prejudice acts can change a man. In the novel Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry, Stacey Logan is forced to mature early in life; this shows us that exposure to prejudice and violence can force a boy to lose his innocence, and make him a man.

Stacey carrying TJ home when he was hurt,lethargic and grasping on to life, the very gruff and hardened Mr.Morrison confessing his interminable love for the the Logan kids, these are examples of how the main theme of the novel “Roll of Thunder Hear my Cry” is family always looks out for one another no matter what. In the heartwarming book Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry I believe the theme of it is family Always sticks together no matter what because of the New examples that I listed above the people in Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry have to stick together as a strong Community to keep each other safe and well protected.

Hundreds of women served as spies in the civil war. In the book Women During the Civil War, it was said that female spies “gathered information about the enemy’s plans, troop size, fortifications and supplies on scraps of paper or fabric and sewed them into their blouses and petticoats or rolled them into their hair”(Brooks). These women risked their own lives for their country. Women had the perfect role of spying because “…they were easily trusted and viewed as non-threatening by soldiers who, enamored by their beauty” (Brooks). Women are often proved to be more trusting than men.

The Diary of Anne Frank is a remarkably moving book about the short life of a young girl and her family. The Holocaust was a horrible time for Jewish people and Anne and her Jewish family’s lives were completely turned upside down as a result. The war resulted in the deaths of countless people, mostly innocent people. Before the invasion on D-day and the end of the war not too long after, the rest of the world didn’t know the real disaster going on over seas. Anne Frank’s once secret diary has introduced the immense suffering and horror that occurred during the Holocaust.

Several months more pass, and soon Anne begins to have terrible nightmares. She wakes Mr. Dussel very often. She dreams that the Nazis come to take them. In the works of the nightmares, she hurts her mother’s feelings by rejecting her comfort. Anne will only talk to her father about it. It truly

Throughout history women and their efforts have been overlooked and forgotten. What is not often taught is the efforts of some of the female spies that changed the course of the war. This diverse group of women both daring and brave are silent heroes that contributed to WW2. Heroism in war and throughout history tends to produce gendered associations, men fighting in trenches while women waited at home for their husbands. In reality this was not the case, these forgotten women broke gender stereotypes and changed the rules for women in war.

Intro: How long can you stay in a closed area-one, two, or maybe even three days? Well, what about three years? As you can see, Anne Frank was one of those people who had to stay in an apartment for three years, hiding from the Nazi’s, just because she was Jewish. Anne Frank had a very reasonable quote that was quite agreeable. “In spite of everything, I still believe people are really good at heart.” After reading The Diary of Anne Frank I would have to agree with Anne and her quote. She went through rough times during the hiding, but she persevered through it. Throughout the play, there was a certain character that showed kindness and that was helpful, this person would be Miep. Another character that I would
