Perils

The hero of the treetop kingdom was on yet another perilous journey. He traveled through the most treacherous of lands to save the princess of the kingdom, princess Onion, who was taken away by the evil and monstrous king, lord Gradion. When the hero finally arrived, he and the evil king faced off in a duel that led to the king’s defeat. The hero saves the princess once again, and seeing how brave he was, she marries him, and they live happily ever after. In countless stories like these, the damsel

In this journal, I will be characterizing Klaus. I characterized him as being both intelligent and quite knowledgeable about literature. To begin with, Klaus is quite intelligent and wise. For example, when the Baudelaires are at the hotel they need to keep hidden, so they decide to go undercover as concierges. Being as wise as he is, when ever Klaus would be confronted by someone he would always respond as vaguely as possible to conceal his identity. When Frank or Ernest asked him who he was he

Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire are the ages of fourteen, twelve, and an infant of an unspecified age. They each have their own specific things they enjoy and are gifted in. Violet loves inventing things and she’s always thinking of some creative invention. The middle child, Klaus, is very intellectual and loves books. Sunny, being very small, loves to bite things with her tiny sharp teeth. Their very rich parents die in a fire that burns down their house. Mr. Poe, a banker who is friends

Fear and greed pump through the veins of our “sweet” American people causing a boundary between the truth and the presumption of immigrants. Immigrants have always been the “friendly strangers” who’ve come to enjoy America’s freedom with ambitious mindsets. However, as soon as the immigrants started affecting the future of “true” Americans, these “friendly strangers” instantly were seen as evil intruders. The rumors spread of the “evil doings” of immigrants, which lead to the presumption that immigrants

The perils of indifference are the afflictions that the indifference people bring to the other people. According to the speech, the perils of indifference are the horrible and hopeless life that the Americans bring to the Jews because of their indifference. The indifferent people make their neighbor’s life meaningless. “Yet, for the person who is indifferent, his or her neighbor are of no consequence.”(30) According to the quote, when a person is indifferent, he or she won’t care what happened to

I read one of the books in the ranger's apprentice series “Halt's peril”. it is the 5th book in the ranger's apprentice series by john flanagan. In the previous book the group “ Halt, Will, Horace, and their horses” are on a journey to take down Tennyson and his fake god. on the way killing one of his Genovesans “assassins” at the end of book 8. First: Will finally gets to Port Cael in Hibernia were he is looking for O’Malley for information on where he sailed Tennyson and his followers. After

Many people believe there is not a dividing line between ignorance and indifference, but they are more similar/connected to each other than people think and are the opposite of moral responsibility. In both the story “Night” and Elie Wiesel’s “The Perils of Indifference” the Americans(President) and the Germans both showed indifference toward the Jew during the Holocaust and World War II, which proves people are willing to sacrifice others to keep themselves safe and not get involved with anything

America’s current system of education is in peril. If we can surpass or eliminate the industrialized mindset that the educational system has been built upon since the nineteenth century, we can once again realize the true nature of education – the acquisition of knowledge and skills needed for the betterment of ourselves and our society. As it stands now, the method of education is part of a hierarchical system, where the most useful subjects for work and those which will amass the most wealth are

The movie A Few Good Men provides a perspective with which to view the issues of the defense of obedience to authority when following instructions from superiors. Stanley Milgram, author of “The Perils of Obedience,” and Herbert C. Kelman and V. Lee Hamilton, authors of “The My Lai Massacre: A Military Crime of Obedience,” would likely argue that numerous factors other than intentional sadistic urges could cause a person to unnecessarily inflict violence on another human being.
