The Joys Of Being An Outsider

In the book The Outsider by S.E Hinton, there are many problems between the East and the West side resulting to many conflicts. The author writes “‘It was the Socs’ I said nervously, because there were plenty of Socs milling around and some of them were giving me funny looks, as if I shouldn’t be with Cherry or something.’And I don’t like talking about it either, Johnny getting beat up I mean’”(Hinton 31). This shows how nervous Pony is about the Socs. They can not even be seen with a Socs and Pony is with two, Cherry and Marcia girlfriends of two major Socs. Another reason is, Johnny got beat up by two socs and he is a nervous wreck going anywhere Socs could be.” We all looked up and saw a blue mustang coming down the street, Johnny made

Outsiders are a very common theme in the novel Brave New World by Aldous Huxley. Many characters show traits of an outsider. John is one character who fits the bill. He is the ultimate outsider. Other outsiders in the book are Bernard and Linda. All of these characters have traits that make it difficult for them to “fit in” to the society of the New World. They don’t fit in a conforming society. These three characters are perfect examples of outsiders in Brave New World.

S.E Hilton’s inspirational book, Outsiders, is about a boy named Ponyboy and his best friends as they go on an adventure that will change them forever. I compared Ponyboy to myself and noticed many similarities and differences between the two of us. We are similar when it comes to social character, sports, grades, and even courage. Even though we have some similarities, we also have our differences when it comes to time period, freedom, generosity, and organization. I enjoyed comparing and contrasting Ponyboy to myself because he taught me that even though life can be tough, if you look on the bright side of things, you can find happiness once again.

What is an outsider? An outsider is a person who is not excepted by or is isolated by society. Have you ever been an “outsider”? Everyone experiences a situation where they weren’t able to fit in. The feeling of not being able to fit it is universal. Not everyone is the same and in certain situations you may not be able to bond with everyone. Everyone is focused on being judged or being the person who is judging someone. If you are not like everyone in your society group, those people don’t except you. Nowadays our society feels that if you aren’t up to people’s expectations, you are known to be an “outsider”. Being an outsider is universal because not everyone is social, not everyone can afford nice things and not everyone is popular.

Recently our class read the outsiders. I really enjoyed the book and, I will be talking about Weather I think i'm a soc or a greaser. I will also talk about how this book shows friends should stick together and, how the book shows that the greasers and the soc are not that different.

“Everybody tries to be exactly the same. I think being an outsider is a good thing”- Ethan Embry. What this quote is saying is it’s ok to be an outsider because everyone tries to act the same so standing out isn’t a bad thing.Being an outsider can seem as an negative thing to everyone else but in To kill a mockingbird the author Harper Lee shows that it doesn’t always have to be a bad thing. Being an outsider is not a bad thing and the characters from the story prove that. Scout was an outsider in the story but it in a way helped her grow as a person. Arthur Radley was also an outsider which kept him from the negativity happening in Maycomb. Even Atticus was seen as an outsider because of who was defending. Anyone can be an outsider and that’s okay.

She probably meant that the outsiders or greasers that don’t fit in with the higher class because nobody comes to the neighborhood to hang out only to jump people. In outsider is a person who doesn’t fit in or doesn’t hang out with anybody else. Mr.s hilton was referencing the greasers to be nobodies that have nothing but they get disrespected by everybody and nobody sees that the socs are the people that are bad. The greasers only protect themselves and the gang. The socs have everything going for them but the socs are just spoiled rich kids that don’t have to do anything in life but the greasers have nothing but what they have work for.to be in outsider is you don’t have anything that a bunch of people have and people try to put everything

There are many different perspectives on what an Outsider is. The term outsiders is used to portray a social group of people called the greasers that do not necessarily fit in with the community or other people. The greasers are poor, most of them have dropped out of school , and they do not live in the best conditions as the socs do. There are many outsiders in the book, but three people that immediately come to my that could fit the definition of outsiders are Ponyboy, Dally, and Cherry.

An outsider is defined as “a person who does not belong to a particular group.” In the book, The Outsiders, many of the characters can be described as being an outcast from the social society. Ponyboy, Johnny, and Cherry are outsiders in this novel because none of them really fit into the groups that they’re “supposed” to be in.

The ability for an outsider to accurately discern about the underlying cultural values of an organization by analyzing symbols, ceremonies, dress, or other observables aspects is more difficult than for an insider with several years of work experience (Lukasova, 2004). The difference in understanding the underlying cultural value between an outsider and an insider will vary from organization to organization and how often an employee interacts with an outsider.

Furthermore, a variety of genres of literature can benefit society by giving them knowledge of a social inequality and how they can help solve it. Financial inequality or discrimination of people in poverty is a global issue that many people in the past have tried to cure, however all of them concluded it was too big of a task to handle and didn’t get enough people throughout the world to get involved. Also, society doesn’t know, unless they were once in poverty, all of the causes and effects to be able to figure out a solution.

What does it mean to be an “outsider?” There may be many different definitions on the Internet, or in the dictionary, but my definition of what it means to be an “outsider,” is to be excluded. It may be simple, but it is true, and it is very meaningful to those who have been outsiders at one point in their lives. I know because I was one of these people. I am not an outsider in my every day to day life in school and other aspects of life, but there have been certain places and times when I have felt like I don’t belong and one of these times was last year, when my family went to Tucson, Arizona, and Nogales, Mexico, for spring break.

The use of heat to portray existentialism is one of the crucial devices that amplify the tension in Albert Camus’ ‘The Outsider.’ The main character, Mersault, is an existentialist man who struggles to be accepted and understood by his peers every day, while not even fully realizing that struggle. He is the perfect representation of an existentialist, which is shown through the actions and thoughts he expresses. He is existentialist in the sense that he is a sensuous man, always completely immersed in what is happening at that very exact moment. He does not see the point in doing anything that will not contribute to his happiness, which is greatly dependent on his primary senses. What mostly affects Mersault’s senses and his existentialist

What is an outsider? According to Merriam-Webster, an outsider is a person who does not belong to a particular group. Most people are outright judgmental in all societies judging on their own characteristics, actions, cultures, and standards. In the South around the 1930s countless people, African Americans especially, were targets of judgement and harassment on what they could not control about themselves or how they chose to live. In Harper Lee's novel To Kill a Mockingbird, the people of Maycomb had a genuine fear of the unknown and the outsiders of the story are subjected to suspicion and ridicule. There are frequent outsiders in the novel, nevertheless some jumped out and taught you something about how to live and what's important in life; these characters include Arthur Radley, Scout, and Mayella Ewell.
