Einstein believed that we are the reason why that the world is a dangerous place to live; not because of our actions, but through our inaction. Thus, people who in charge or in the position to help, often do nothing, maybe because they are too afraid of taking action or don't care. However, our

Throughout our lifetime, we will have heard at least one influential quote. Due to this individual quote, our lives will be changed forever, whether it be good or bad. This, is the quote that has influenced me the most, and will continue to do so.

“You don’t change the world with the ideas in your mind, but with the conviction in your heart.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson is a famous author. He is known for his statement "Unless you try to do something beyond what you already mastered, you will never grow". This statement has a powerful meaning. Although many people may disagree with his statement because of their personal experiences, People should agree with his statement because of school, sports and job opportunities.

There is a great difference between coming to the realization of your own potential and actually putting it to use. All over the world, although mostly in more developed countries, revolutions and amazing discoveries have been caused by single human beings that are being active about their knowledge. Some people are more passive about their ability to use their higher-level thinking skills, though. It is intimidating to think of the power that dominant individuals have had in the past, such as influencing people’s thinking and controlling their lives or making significant advancements and saving numerous lives. The song “Handlebars” by Flobots and Hitler’s book, Mein Kampf, both exhibit a sense of power, ability to influence people’s thinking, and a lack of self-control that lead to the more detrimental path of using one’s knowledge and potential.

Lewis Thomas, an American essayist, conveys the importance of preserving the mystery of one’s mind in his essay, “The Attic of the Brain.” According to Thomas, humans produce internal conflicts because they overanalyze their choices. Internal conflicts are not only caused by overanalyzing, but also from the feeling of guilt which “repeats the same transgressive behavior in the future.” Guilt is an emotional experience humans constantly face after they realize they disrupted their standards of conduct, until they rectify their mistakes. Even though the punitive feeling of guilt brings forth a feeling of worriedness, Thomas mentions that overanalyzing a choice to discard “unidentifiable articles” in the attic or to preserve memories overwhelms the human mind. He uses the analogy of the multitude of “unidentifiable articles” in the attic to compare to the flood of ideas in the human brain. The commodities stored in the cramped attic are “an old chair, [and] trunkful of old letters” which serve as a purpose of remembrance, as the human brain is filled with crucial information that enables people to think, feel, and store memories (75). However, he argues that people frequently clash with their thoughts, since they clutter their brain with excessive information. People do not have the ability to control their own brain; as a matter of fact, the human brain, the most complex part of the body, controls itself. From his analysis of the human brain, it can be concluded that humans have “unconscious minds” that automatically process different thoughts and memories resulting in a limitless supply of creativity. People “discover new things” by learning from previous ideas and applying their creativity to their practical use. Overall, humans cannot operate their brain, but should allow the extraordinary mind to be free.

For good ideas and true innovation, you need human interaction, conflict, argument, and debate.- Margaret Heffrerson

The story, And Then There Were None, begins with nine suspects on an island after one person is murdered. Not a single person on the island finds out who the murderer was in the end, and even the police, who looked at the aftermath of the events that took place on the island, were stumped by a few of the things that they noticed. Only a letter reveals to readers that Justice Wargrave had done the murders. The way that Wargrave saw it, he had a right to do what he did to the nine people on the island. He knew each of them had wrongfully gotten away with one or multiple murders and decided to do what he thought was right, which was his motive. In the story, they are all portrayed as any one of them could have done the job, and with the revealing of some of the inner thoughts of the group, we saw they all had some dark thoughts in their head and could be responsible for what happened.

If I were to leave one quote as my enduring legacy, it would be “The only person responsible for your success and failures is yourself.”. The quote’s inherent explicit message is that a person is responsible for what happens to them. This message is intended to encourage people to take accountability and responsibility for their actions’ results. On the other hand, an essential implicit motivation of the quote is to counter the inclination of people currently to blame everyone but themselves when their plans go awry. Furthermore, another implicit message of the quote is people need to become self-reliant. In today’s intricate and constantly fluctuating world, people are becoming more and more dependent on others while they fail to take liability

“The secret is here in the present. If you pay attention to the present, you can improve upon it. And, if you improve on the present, what comes later will also be better.”

“The motto of the Enlightenment is therefore: Sapere aude! Have courage to use your own understanding.” (Kant 54). Most have no understanding that Kant says because they weren’t given the sense to use their own understanding. I feel that Kant dares us to have courage because when he discovered his own understanding he felt a sense of greatness and accomplishment. Kant gives us some encouragement to think beyond the box because he knows that if he can do great things that everyone has the potential to do great things also. “…others will soon enough take the tiresome job over me. The guardians who have kindly taken upon themselves the work of supervision will soon see to it that by far the largest part of mankind should consider the step forward to maturity not only as difficult but also as highly dangerous.” (Kant 54). Thinking controls the mass chaos that could ruin society, yet we only have a few individuals who are truly original thinkers. Others pretend to be true thinker but in true are re-readers. For those of society who are not true thinkers stepping out of immaturity is a dangerous step to themselves and the ones around them. Most aren’t prepared to step out of their comfort zone because they never were meant to or prepared. The “guardians” have double

In her novels “Death on the Nile” and “And Then There Were None” Agatha Christie uses foreshadowing and both external and internal conflict to portray the theme of her novel, the idea that justice will always triumph. In "Death on the Nile" Poiret undertakes the position of bringing about what’s due to the guilty character. At the same time in “And Then There Were None" the protagonist is unclear because while Justice Wargrave is the one seeking justice, his methods are flawed. Agatha Christie uses mystery in both of her books to emphasize how the truth will come out in the end. This is clearly shown in “Death on The Nile” where the outcome is clear-cut while “And Then There Were None” is undefined and elusive. Although both books use morbid and unethical methods of showing their objective, both stress their point and Agatha Christie's opinion on
