“Go often to the house of a friend, for weeds soon choke up the unused path” is a Swedish proverb. This proverb means that one should make an effort to check up on their friends and always try. All people know they must talk to their friends to keep them. Or, try and help out to keep something working. Not much is known about the origin of this proverb even though it is popular. It is important to live by “go often to the house of a friend; for weeds soon choke up the unused path” which can be shown through Kitty Kallen, Beryl Grey, 11 Birthdays, and the United Way drive. Kitty Kallen shows this proverb because of her view on life, her determination to succeed, and her gratefulness of other people. People should check in on friends once in awhile. This proverb is accurately portrayed by a lyric that Kallen sang, “Little things mean a lot,” Kitty Kallen said in her 1954 hit recording.” (Christian Science Monitor) Kitty Kallen made a very valid point.

She was a very determined woman. Many people most likely looked up to her because of her achievements, “Grey, Beryl, a British ballet dancer, was prima ballerina of the Sadler’s Wells Ballet from 1942 until 1957.” (World Book) She also, like Kallen, tried and kept trying. This resulted in her becoming a very skilled dancer. In fact, she kept trying and achieved more. Grey went to lengths to complete feats, “In 1964, she became the first Western ballerina to dance with a Chinese ballet company.” (World Book) She further proves this proverb because she doesn’t stop trying. Therefore, he skills get better and don’t deplete. Really, this is another good way to explain this proverb. “She won praise for her performance of such roles as the Red Queen in Checkmate.” (World Book)When you go and attempt something, it’s best to keep up with it. Whether it be friendship or, in Grey’s case dancing, always

Talia Schaffer, in her article, “‘A Wilde Desire Took Me’: The Homoerotic History of Dracula”, claims that Bram Stoker was sexually attracted to author Oscar Wilde. Stoker’s gothic novel, Dracula, is the offspring of Stoker’s desire and Stoker’s fear of societal rejection. In Dracula, claims Schaffer, “Stoker manages to speak both from the closet and from the open; he simultaneously explores Wilde-as-monster, and identifies with the real Wilde’s pain” (Schaffer 472). Bram is both disgusted with homosexuality and sympathetic of homosexuality, and he uses Dracula as a way to write about homosexuality without bluntly writing about homosexuality. Schaffer, in her argument, claims that Dracula represents Oscar Wilde and that Jonathan Harker represents Bram Stoker. Talia

Karen Tandy arguments have evidence, explanations, and expression of causes to back up why she believe that marijuana should stay illegal and not be decriminalize as much as it has already been in numerous other countries. While Joe Messerli also has explanations towards legalizing marijuana, he didn’t have facts that back up his reasoning nor did he have evidence. Tandy used the contrast between myths and realities on marijuana to help with her argument. Joe, on the other hand, used a technique of contradicting himself to make a point and sometimes it’s okay to do that, but only if it was a part of his closing argument. Based on both arguments, I believe Karen Tandy’s argument is the most convincing because she had more facts and bad outcomes about marijuana if it was to be legalized.
Do teachers have a right to free speech in the workplace and can comments on personal beliefs and views be grounds for dismissal? In a fictional situation, teacher Ann Griffin is dismissed from her position as a tenured teacher after a conversation she had involving the Principal and Vice Principal in which she made the comment that she “hated all black folks.” Ann Griffin was teaching at a predominantly African-American school and after this heated conversation, the Principal Fred Watts recommended Griffin’s dismissal based on doubting her ability to treat students fairly and questioning her judgment and competency as a teacher. Was the Principal justified in dismissing Ms. Griffin? Should Ms. Griffin’s speech be protected as a First Amendment right? What precedence can be found both supporting Ms. Griffin’s dismissal and also to support her continued employment?
Keep your friends close but your enemies closer. One person who takes this quote to an entirely new level is Montresor from “The Cask of Amontillado”. In this short story by Edgar Allan Poe, Montresor has had enough of his boorish friend Fortunato and vows for revenge.

While on their way to retrieve the alcohol, Montresor tells Fortunato to drink for his heavy cough, intoxicating him more with each sip. Once they arrive at the cellar, Montresor tricks Fortunato to his death by walling him up brick by brick. Montresor however wouldn’t have been able to go
