"We need to see if Liv knows anything that can help us. It'll only be for a few hours." "You're seriously making me babysit a sociopath?" Damon and Stefan shook their heads and made their "don't fight us on this" like look that you're quite used to.

And there he was, more handsome and peaceful than you had imagined. He was sleeping with his hands under his head, somehow having a small smirk playing on his lips. You already know he'll be trouble with a smile like that. His short hair which seemed to have been quiffed was now ruffled in a sleepy mess.

Even after all these years and the many men that have come and gone, you always seem to be attracted to the dangerous
While reading The Stranger I noticed that traits that Albert Camus character depicts in the book are closely related to the theories of Sigmund Freud on moral human behavior. Albert Camus portrays his character of Meursault as a numb, emotionless person that seems to mindlessly play out his role in society, acting in a manner that he sees as the way he’s supposed to act, always living in the moment with his instincts driving him, and if the right circumstance presents itself the primal deep seeded animal will come out. I believe that most of the character’s traits fall under Freud’s notion of the Id and Ego mental apparatus, and don’t believe that his idea of the super-ego is represented in this book.
In the book The Outsiders by S.E Hinton, it's built around the class division between the Socs and the greasers.

African American racial tension has decreased drastically, since the fifties our country has leaps and bounds towards equality. James Baldwin wrote Stranger in the Village, and he wrote about his experience living in a small Swiss village and how he was able to evaluate the American society and its issues of race. Baldwin specifically focused on African American racial issues. Baldwin makes arguments about how race is treated much different in Europe, he also argued how there are still a lot of problems with American society that need to be changed. I agree with Baldwin's thoughts however this essay is outdated and isn't completely relevant to our society today; however some of the broader ideas are.
In “The Stranger” by Albert Camus, the juxtaposition between Chaplain’s morals and the Meursault's are symbolic of the acceptance and rejection of social constructs like religion, showing how adhering to one’s own values are ultimately more rewarding.

Like many scientific theories, these opinions can later be proven false. Since this is such a common aspect of life, it is illustrated in many novels. An example of a story that it is illustrated in is The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton. In the novel Ponyboy, a naive 14 year old boy who has been misjudging his gang members which also happen to be his friends later on realizes that he was wrong about all of them. Ponyboy's perspective of Dally ,Darry, and Johnny

“So . . .” I pushed my plate away. “Tell me about the goblin. Will he ever be back?”
“You’re welcome,” Joe said. “I’ll follow you back to Johnny’s room. I’d like to check on him myself.”
I come with no wrapping, Or pretty pink bows. I am who i am, From my head to my toes. I tend to get loud when speaking my mind.
In Strangers on a Train, Hitchcock uses a unique combination of continuity and narration in order to create a fluid story while also drawing the spectator in with suspenseful situations.
