The elves had given her one of his mother's nightgowns to wear. In the white lace, clean from any dirt and grime, her honey blonde hair no longer matted and mangled, Luna looked absolutely ethereal in the moonlight.

“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” ~ Winston Churchill. This quote defines what it is to be courageous, to be courageous is to persevere even if you know you will fail. This kind of courage is the courage which both Harold Crick in Stranger Than Fiction and Jean Louise “Scout” Finch in To Kill A Mockingbird. In Stranger Than Fiction, an IRS agent, Harold Crick, with a monotonous life learns that you must not only survive, but you must truly live. This lesson is taught through a series of events that lead to his breaking out of his shell and truly living his life. The events are preliminarily put into action through Harold hearing the voice of the author of a book about his life. In To Kill A Mockingbird, a tomboyish six-year-old, Jean Louise “Scout” Finch, discovers the true meaning of camaraderie and bravery. Her friendships are strong but her definition of courage is flawed. In the end, she realizes a great truth, that to really know someone, you have to imagine yourself in their shoes. Courage is important to these two characters, as they both discover what it really means to be brave and what the true definition of courage is. Courage is not always outspoken, sometimes courage is knowing that you will fail, but trying and failing anyway and then accepting your failure.
When I finally put it on and left the changing room, the priestesses squealed and pulled me over to do my hair. Flowers and jewels flew out of nowhere and onto my head.
One of the most dominant characteristics in any villain is a craving for destruction, whether it is the annihilation of a specific hero or of an entire world. Occasionally, however, the heel possesses a quality that contradicts this nefarious tendency. Rarely does a story include an evildoer whose actions end up benefitting those around him. This “doer of good and... doer of evil” (“Far Away and Long Ago” 1) is Loki of Norse mythology. While some of Loki’s actions qualify as heinous, many of those who read of his misgivings are too quick to criticize the undervalued deity. This harsh judgment has spun into a popular culture that paints a misconstrued image of Loki in film. Although interpreted by modern media as inherently evil, the Norse god Loki is simply a misunderstood mischief-maker who helps on his own accord, corrects his misdeeds, and ultimately causes the dawn of modern man.
In the dead of night, Loki went to a sleeping Sif, and chopped off every strand of her hair. When she awoke, Sif was feeling miserable. She weeped and weeped, after seeing her pride and joy on the ground in front of her. Thor, looking at the pitiful state of his wife, was furious at Loki for doing such a thing. He threatened to beat Loki up, and break all of the bones in his body. Loki was terrified! He then promised to give Sif a wig made of golden hair, to repent for his mistake (1). Thor was satisfied with this.
Loki, the “god of mischief, magic, and artifice”(pg.495) is very deceitful, he told Magnus that he was on his side when Magnus asked him about his fate to fight against the gods, he said,”that was the gods’ choice, not mine. The thing about fate, Magnus: even if we can’t change the big picture, our choices can alter the details. That’s how we rebel against destiny, how we make our mark.”(pg.132) This makes Loki sound like he really is trying to delay Ragnarok, and give the gods a better fighting chance, but the truth is he was only said what he said to persuade Magnus to give Sumarbrander, the Sword of Summer (a sword that once belonged Frey, this sword could cut through anything), to Uncle Randolph. Loki said that Uncle Randolph would store the sword away(pg.335), but the truth was if Magnus gave Sumarbrander to Uncle Randolph he would give the sword to Loki in exchange for his family’s lives(pg.490). Loki would
Probably that you have ever wondered whether you are more like Fox or a Hedgehog. The writer “Pamela Haag” telling us essay about “The hedgehog and the fox “is also a good parable for social life today. Parable of the fox and the hedgehog can be applied to so many different kinds of people and their practices. The writer suggested that ‘foxes know many things and the hedgehog one big thing’.

As we could see clearly, both stories emphasize the evident theme, which is that appearances could be deceived. In my story, we could observe that the boy, which seems a horrible person and student achieves to get change of her teacher’s mind and demonstrate that he is an excellent person.
Edgar Albert Guest's poem “Courage” says discusses less of what courage means, and more what it is, how it changes a person. Guest explains that “Courage isn't a brilliant dash, a daring deed in a moment's flash;It isn't an instantaneous thing, born of despair with a sudden spring. It isn't a creature of flickered hope, or the final tug at a slipping rope; But it's something deep in the soul of man, that is working always to serve some plan.” I think Guest was trying to say how someone who has courage doesn't flare up every once in a while, it isn't a flash of strength or a power-up, it's a deep part of you. People who are courageous have something special in them, and it's something used in every situation. I think, especially the part where he says; “That is also working to serve some plan.” Even when you don't need the courage inside you, it's moving and alive. You are saving it up, storing it, it's making you stronger every day, so that when you need to brave your foes and fears, you have the ability to pull out and
Traditionally courage refers to physical strength, but courage is much more than just physical strength. According to The Free Dictionary, “Courage is the state or quality of mind or spirit that enables one to face danger, fear, or vicissitudes with self-possession, confidence, and resolution” (“Courage”). Thus, acts of courage can include running into a burning house to save lives, standing up to a bully, and even asking someone out on a date. Notably, courage comes in many shapes, sizes and forms. Various acts of courage are relevant to Harper Lee’s novel To Kill A Mockingbird in which many characters act courageously. The story takes place in the “tired old town” (Lee 6) of Maycomb, Alabama during the Great Depression in the 1930s. Primarily, the story revolves around the arrest and the impending trial of Tom Robinson, a black man accused of raping a white woman. The main characters include Jean Louise Finch (Scout), a young girl; her older brother, Jeremy Atticus Finch (Jem); and her single father and lawyer, Atticus Finch. Above all, many characters in the text demonstrate moral, social and physical courage in their attempt to stand up against their traditional society.
