The Last Word Speech

Sports movies are knows as blockbuster movies. Sports movies are know for there monologues. A monologue is a long speech by one actor in a play or movie, or as part of a theatrical or broadcast program. Coach Gary Gaines, in the movie “Friday Night Lights” has a speech called “Being Perfect”. “Being Perfect” is a very powerful, emotional, and motivating speech. This speech is not your normal locker room speech. “Being Perfect’s” purpose is to inform the players and others that it doesn't take much just to feel good about yourself.

VI. When I was born he taught me to be the strongest person I could be and to do my absolute best at everything I try.

This source was a speech given by the 43rd President George W. Bush on September 11th, 2001 at 8:30P.M. It was about the tragedy that occurred that day on America’s soil. It left many in shock, terror, pain, and anger. The speech was given at the White House and it told Americans what had happened that day.

The Farewell Address embodied Washington’s political principles and hopes for the United States, a newly developed nation, to grow strong and remain independent. He stressed the importance of national unity. Despite the confidence Washington had for his country to continue to thrive without his leadership, he felt obligated to forewarn the American people and future generations the greatest dangers, or threats, to the United States. Washington believed threats such as political parties, and associations with foreign alliances could weaken the nation. Today, it is believed that the Farewell Address is a prophetic warning for contemporary politics.

While many have called the American flag “Old Glory,” few know how that nickname began. Fewer still know about the fight that continues today – 184 years later – over a the original flag that was first called “Old Glory.”

At a time of hardships, a generation who had lived a life of war and troubles came together to celebrate the inauguration of the 35th president of the united states. The three pieces analyzed use different methods to portray what exactly went on on that cold January day, but managed to impact the readers and portray John F. Kennedy the same way. His inauguration speech uses different rhetorical terms and Ethos as a method of persuasion. The article Inside Kennedy´s Inauguration by Eleanor Clit on the other hand, uses Pathos to give an emotional connection. Finally the photo, credited to the United States Army Signal corps uses imagery to capture that historical moment. Regardless of what method they each used they all manage to portray him the same way. As a respected, strong, brilliant and transcendent human being. Each of the three sources, uses unique methods such as ethos, pathos and imagery to portray a similar legacy of John Fitzgerald Kennedy.

The first thing I’m going to talk about is who the hunter was, and what he did. The hunter’s name was Zaroff. He is the General of the castle. He also lived on an island with nobody else on it but him and his servants. The island he lived on was like a jungle, it was filled

Thank you for the support that you gave APD and me in FY-16. Mr. Song and I feel that your team and you bent over backwards in many instances to support our mission requirements. We couldn't have had a successful year without you. For that we are greatly appreciative. We look forward to working with you in this new fiscal year.

“I don’t know; I didn’t vote for him. I didn’t vote for anyone, if that’s what you’re asking.”

With all of the different opinions, how can a single person write a speech that is respected among a majority and for years to come? Now, are these speeches actually as amazing as history has made them seem or has no one challenged popular opinion?  The speech, "Every Man a King", written by Huey Long has been categorized as one of the greatest speeches in history. Every Man a King uses writing techniques such as persuasion, rhetoric, and syllogisms to convey the message of spreading wealth.

President Obama gave his last State of the Union address on January 12th of this year. Like so many of his previous speeches, it was filled with soaring rhetoric and stressed values all Americans hold dear, not just Democrats, while also focusing on values that Democrats hold more dear than Republicans. Governor Nikki Haley of South Carolina gave the Republican response and that speech, although critical of the President’s approach, echoed many of his values, while still emphasizing values that Republicans hold more dear than Democrats.

In class we were shown a recording of the speech, “A call to men”. The first thing I noticed was the title, which made me immediately assume it was going to be a female speaker that was going to speak about feminism; or something along those lines. To see a man giving the speech grabbed my attention instantly. The man giving the speech was Tony Porter, and his audience was mostly women, who made me think, “Is this guy going to be giving a speech about feminism?” While listening to his speech I felt guilty for being quick to judge, because his speech was actually about growing up as a male, and being masculine is today’s society. While Tony Porter was giving his speech, he brought up stories that without a doubt every guy in our class could relate to that left many of us saying, “Wow”.

SPECIFIC PURPOSE: By the end of my speech, my audience will know the history of Walt Disney, his invention of Disney World, and how his invention has impacted people.

When I was a kid, my super hero was Superman, I kind of admired him because I thought it would be cool to be able to fly and to have super-human strength, but the main reason why I liked Superman is because he helped people, no matter what.

Next let’s talk about Destiny’s Bain, Story. Now story is something that destiny has improved on through its life span. People went from making the story the head of the destiny joke to praising improvements in voice acting and Lore. However, it’s not where it needs to be, not where it could be. For one I don’t know a single destiny character, I mean of course I know names. Xur is a fan favorite when he comes with the right loot. We all praise master Rahool in hopes that all of our engrams give us legendary weapons, although we know they won’t (anyone miss the days when purples weren’t guaranteed to be legendries?). The thing is, those characters weren’t written to be popular. We weren’t supposed to kneel before master Rahool. That happened as a trickledown effect of loot being a main theme of Destiny, and those characters being tied to loot. I don’t care about Zavala, I don’t care about Cayde, I don’t care about Shaxx, I don’t care about Zavala. I had no reason to. I care about Toland because his character was divulged upon in the grimoire cards. His story and why he became shattered began to interest me. A character who kind of wasn’t ever in the game was one of the most interesting characters of the
