Senior Quote Analysis

First off, I really liked your response due to the fact that I also addressed this question, and I was able to gain a different insight from your discussion board on things I did not include in my response. For instance, the way you explained how first point of view gave strength to the overall idea of history brining pride to many Chicanos not only showed great analysis, but also supported your argument regarding the character’s strong identification with his culture. You use a quote to support your answer and further analyze the quote and speak about the effect cultural heritage and history has on the person Joaquin is.

Min is a potter from the town of Ch'ulp'o that processes many weaknesses. One major weakness of Min is that he is too much of a perfectionist. One One quote that shows Min is a perfectionist is "If ever you learn to make a pot it will not be for me... The potter's trade goes from father to son," on page 95 from the book "A Single Shard". This quote proves that Min will always follow the rules regardless of anything else. A perfectionist is one who always follows the rules and needs everything to be exact. The quote above shows that Min will not teach anyone but his own son to make a pot. Unfortunately for Min, his son died. Another quote that one would say proves Min is a perfectionist is "Min never failed to reject his first attempt."

This quote is very interesting, “She grew strong as I grew weak. (Yes! Jesus loves me!) And so it came to pass, in the Eden of our mother's womb, I was cannibalized by my sister” (40). Leah and Adah are twins, but they are totally different.

This quotes mirrors my Dad on his struggles after he was on his own. He kept his head high and was courageous through his adventures. When he was 21 he started working in a hospital as management. When he was 24 he used some money, which he worked for, as well as some money from his Grandmother, so that he could attend Duke University. My Dad, by doing everything he could attend one of the best schools in the country, showed how he was not a Grendel, who would tear others down to get what he wants.

The way the world is surrounded by technology, not being able to understand technology is difficult but not “death in life”. Today, almost anything on paper is easily accessed on a laptop or smartphone. However, if you're technologically illiterate, you still have access to everything on paper, you just may have to look harder for it. In the text, Carole says “Now I can read, I can read books, anything. I can write. In English and French.” When I read that quote, I think of Carole's troubles when learning to read on paper, now she has to learn all over again on a laptop. Personally, I find it very hard to read off of a smartboard or laptop and I can only think of the struggles coming Carole's way in the 21st century. Some challenges could be,

I highlighted a quote on chapter 11, page 60. Just when the boys thought they were finally free from everything and things were finally beginning to change for the better, more pain and suffering occurs. This is just insane. Walking with your barefoot when it is scorching hot outside made me wonder how they are going to make things better or else. Not being a pain or anything but I did tried walking with barefoot before during summer when I was going to a pool, it was 100 degree outsides, the ground was HOT. I couldn’t take it.

I have never seen the general so despondent I have taken over writing all his correspondence. Congress writes “George, attack the British forces!” I shoot back, we have resorted to eating our horses.

Using today’s quote of "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter," what I think Martin Luther King, Jr. meant was that humans only become alive and living (metaphorically) when we raise our voice to things that matter and not stay silent about them. An example where it would apply to this quote is corresponding to saying that animal abuse is something to neglect instead of fighting for abolishing the abuse that animals have to endure because of what they are. Yes, I agree with this quote considering that no one is living until they voice what matters to them. One national or worldly issue that matters to me is the protesting of Black Lives Matter congregation assembly. It is important to me because black lives

The importance focussed on science is deadly has identified that value of human equality is treated poor. According to the texts I have studied these themes are common. In this essay I will be discussing the connection between these texts Unwind by Neal Shusterman, flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keys, Divergent directed by Neal Burger and Gattaca directed by Andrew Niccole,

The quote that I most closely identify with is, “A writer is motivated by need—the need to express himself/herself. To put it another way, writers write because they simply have to write. It is their way of dealing with their emotions, with their understandings, with their lives. When poet Alden Nowlan was once asked, “Why do you write?” he answered, “What else would I do?” For me, writing is a never-ending journey of self-discovery.
