“ I can shake off everything as I write; my sorrows disappear, my courage is reborn.” I selected this quote because i feel as if I can relate to Anne which is pretty cool. Like Anne, I keep a journal were I write down almost eveything because I feel as if I don’t have anyone one to talk to and disscuss my feelings with. In the warehouse buliding Anne didn’t have an option of weather she should find a friend to build trust with so she could share stuff with them, but I on the other hand have an option to find this friend so I will consiter myself lucky and take advantage of this. “ No one has ever become poor by giving.” I picked this quote because I really like it. I had never thought of this before until I read it and it has a great point to it. For example, if i were to donate three thousad dollars to some organization I think God would bless me and make …show more content…
After all that her and her family have
gone through she can still think this. Between leaving her home, going to stay in a tiny space for a couple years, sharing a room with Dr. Dussel while he hogged the room all day, having to be quite for most of her days, not getting to use the labratory whenever she needed to, and most of all the Germans killing all of the Jews, some she probably knew. After all this she still saw good in the Germans! “ As long as this exists, this sunshine and this cloudless sky, and as long as I can enjoy it, how can I be sad?” In this I think Anne was saying that even though this war’s going on that doesn’t mean that she cannot be grateful for what she does have. She had a nice small window in the attic in which she could look out it at the blue sky, the green grass, and the people walking by. I remember reading that she always loved to hear the bell tower ring because it reminded her that there were still people out their living their
Anne matures throughout the course of her diary entries, moving from detailed accounts of basic activities to deeper, more profound thoughts about humanity and her own personal nature. “I know what I want, I have a goal, an opinion, I have a religion and love. Let me be myself and then I am satisfied. I know that I’m a woman, a woman with inward strength and plenty of courage.” This shows that Anne matures through the course of her diary, she considers herself as a woman rather than a young girl and sets goals for herself that she wants to achieve. Anne becomes more optimistic even after she feels misunderstood by everyone and feels completely alone.
There are many different ways Anne's attitude affected everyone in that attic. She was always cheerful and upbeat. She proves this saying "You know the way I'm going to think of it here? I'm going to think of it as a boarding house. A very peculiar summer boarding house." The way Anne talks about the attic proves that she can find the silver lining in everything. She might not be the happiest girl in the world, but she will try her hardest to prove to others that she is. Anne knows she may spend a long time in this place. She decides to look at the bright side of her situation and tries to make everything better than it actually is. Everybody really needed Anne around to make their situation less stressful and to have a little fun. Anne was a very popular girl at her old school. She had many friends and preoccupations but now she had a few rooms to go in for what would turn out to be two whole years. So to go through this much of a change and still have a wonderful attitude is amazing. She had her rights stripped from her as a little girl and was still a gleeful and
Throughout the entire book Anne remains hopeful that her life will get better. Ever through starvation, boredom, and fear, Anne is still hopeful at heart. When the family arrives at the annex and tries to make the best of the situation by saying, “I don't think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains” (171). Earlier on in the novel Anne had chosen to focus on the beauty beneath the fog of war and death. She keeps telling herself that There is still beauty in the world. Later in the story Anne makes a mature comment, she said, “It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals,
Anne never took more than she could get she made realistic dreams to hope for. “After the terrible day yesterday at last something good again and - hope. Hope for it to end, hope for peace“(92). Anne was honest with herself and knew when not to fantasize. Anne never hoped to live through the war and still expect to find all of her belongings and have her house not blown up. Not to mention Anne is also caring.
* Anne tries desperately to continue to believe that there is good in all people. To spite the fact that she knows in her heart that she and her family will meet a terrible fate if caught ( she just didn't know how terrible), she wanted to believe it would all come to a peaceful end. This passage also shows how thoughtful she is. How many 13-14 year old girls do you know who think that deeply ? Not many. In my opinion, it shows great intelligence on her part as well.
Anne’s life-long dream of becoming a famous writer and living beyond her death has become reality. Her diary has informed people of the harsh reality of war life in hiding, therefore she lives on. When people learn about Anne’s life they can understand more about her. Millions of books are being made and sold to this day, spreading the words of her life. Since her book is so popular, people won’t forget her. Anne will long be remembered for her expressive writing.
As this quote “In spite of everything, I still believe people are really good at heart” and many others construe, Anne has said many influential and philosophical lines to help her during this time. To follow up on that, the way Anne began to behave also relates to the terrible situation she was in. As she knew that thinking negatively during this catastrophe, would only add insult to injury. In addition, Anne’s diary containing all of her personal thoughts and experiences while in the Annex support the fact that she behaved in this manner and point towards her reason for being the way she is. In conclusion, Anne had a philosophical way of seeing things as well as a positive and hopeful attitude in order to keep everyone calm or at least make the terrible and horrifying situation less tense for herself and the
Throughout history, few people have had a greater impact in society than Anne Frank. The book A Diary of a Young Girl isn’t just written about some teenager’s horrific life. This novel is about the hardships and difficulties of a teenage girl going through physical, emotional and spiritual changes while hiding from the clutches of the Nazis. This biography was written in a teenage girls point of view in the format of journal entries. Anne Frank writes about her experiences of living in the Annex, her love life with Peter, growing physically and emotionally into a young lady, and the everyday fear of getting caught by the Nazi’s.
Anne is a very positive person. In the collections book on page 277, Anne stated a quote saying “ I don’t want to have lived in vain like most people, I want to go on living even after my death!” By stating this quote, Anne is saying that she just wants to be
Everyone’s life has changed when they had to go into hiding, when their time came. They were scared and didn’t know what to do, they no longer had a life to live anymore. Anne was motivated to strive for change when she and her family were separated by her family. Not being able to see everyone she loved and not being with them anymore. She wanted to be different from everyone and go out and do things on her own, by writing.
Anne Frank’s optimism throughout her most difficult time prompts readers of her writing to appreciate what they have. “As long as this exists, this sunshine and this cloudless sky, and as long as I can enjoy it, how can I be sad?” With these words, the juvenile author blatantly depicts how, even in the worst of times, one can find happiness. During her time in hiding, Anne
Anne also seems very disciplined, since she writes lengthy diary entries quite often. Anne’s diligence in writing seems to help her release strong feelings instead of blurting them out loud and hurting her family and friends. When Anne remarks that paper is more patient than people, she emphasizes the difficulty she has expressing herself openly in front of others. We assume that she is afraid to confide in people because she is scared that she will hurt her friends and family. Thus, Anne shows us that although she is critical of others’ faults, she is sensitive to their
Anne had a lot of conflict with her mother she was like a lot of kids today. Her family was always getting on her nerves and always making her mad. Anne had to learn what going into hiding was really like. They were all limited on things they could do. When I read the book it made me realize how much that we have to be thankful for today. Most people nowadays are not thankful for anything.
World War II had a major effect on Anne and also caused her death in a concentration camp. Anne was young, but had a strong perspective on life. She realized that the war and these types of conflicts cause suffering to people as a whole regardless of their cultures. She writes, "all we can do is wait, as calmly as possible, for it to end. Jews and Christians alike are waiting, the whole world is waiting, and many are waiting for death.
Anne was always a happy little girl. She wasn’t worried about a thing, even though she was going into hiding. During the war Anne went through the worst but, still thought of the best. Anne always wanted to be up and laughing. ¨I only want some fun, someone to laugh and clown around with.¨ Anne had wrote in her diary. When her and her family went into hiding, it meant they lost everything. She had to leave her friends and her cat. In the safe house, there was a boy named peter but
