Quiet Kill “You’re welcome young man. Wish you all the best. Your great uncle made the right choice by giving it all to you.” Sherlock said, “Before I go. Do you have any advice as to investing some of the money?” “I’ll say real estate my boy, and Stocks and Securities, that and whatever your mind can conceive.” Sherlock said, “Sounds you’re a man after my own heart. We are as one mind. I can’t tell you how many nights I lay awake going over in my mind if I got lucky and land a windfall I would make every dollar count.” Chester said. “You have now been gifted with a new hope and the force awakens. And remember it could all ‘Shizam’ end in one fell swoop. And beware those who chase you up a tree and pelt stones at you. So, good luck and
After analyzing their clues they concluded that they should invest their money “in the stock market”. Each pair spent their money differently and everyone thought their way of spending was better than their partner. The heirs became greedy, and why wouldn’t they? If you were given $10,000 for absolutely free and you can do anything with it, you would obviously focus on self-gain. The part that the heirs forgot about was that this money was given to help them solve the mystery.
Through the usage of graphical features used by Xan Brooks, it reinforces the idea of the portrayal of killing shown in the American sniper is morally unacceptable and is not accurate. At the top of the film review is a photograph of ‘Chris Kyle’ portrayed by Bradley Cooper. In the image, Chris is sitting in a military aircraft, facing a rectangle object covered with the United States flag symbolising independence and liberty. The object is presumably a coffin holding a comrade lost in the brutality of war. The position of the coffins show the reader how with war, death is never far behind - this is shown by how the two coffins look as though they are following each other.
Figure1- " Ya know, i was thinking of quiting man, I know the pay is good and all, but this ain't too good for my heart, and morality. It's starting to get me chimpy" Figure2- " Shut up Whimper! We both know how moral you are to able to get here. Ya ain't getting 'Me' to get a bonus for 'You'. Dufus may be our friend and by the gift of Sources, our boss, but he doesn't pay us he only sanctions it."
The book Unwind by Neil Shusterman has many twists and turns with its complex characters. For example Risa, the main female protagonist displays many emotions and actions throughout the book. The author shows Risa’s characterization in an indirect way which I feel helps the reader get to know the character on a more understanding level. Two of those indirect characterizations really stood out to me; she was caring and adaptive in all situations.
Unlike Adam and Eve’s battle of the sexes, Twain highlights how a group of men in a militia are a slave to their pride and naiveté. They have a preconceived idea that with war comes glory, but they do not consider the truths of it. Instead of understanding war as bloodshed and deadly, the narrator is a “naïve young man whose alliance is less with the Confederacy than with the romance of soldiering itself” (Ladd 45). As young men, they see fighting and war as a masculine act to be part of. Their guns are a phallic imagery that symbolizes their masculinity, but it is the very same object that makes them realize what war truly is when they accidentally kill a man.
The book Hardball by Chris Matthews gives deep insight about politics. Throughout the book Chris explains different strategies or concepts used in politics, also know as political maxims. He explains how they are used, how they work, and he gives historical evidence showcasing each political maxim. There are many quotes in Hardball taken from history that are used to explain and demonstrate different political maxims. This is a quote used in the book coming from previous president Jimmy Carter.
A quote that stands out to me from the film “Dirty Wars” is “Kill its way to victory.” I found that this quote really captures the overall theme of the movie. The U.S. goes to ruthless extremes to get what they need, no matter who or what they have to annihilate. These orders are given directly from the White House and passed through American troops and an elite military unit, the Joint Special Operations Command (JSOC.) JSOC are not only given orders, but also a hit list issued by President Barack Obama of people to kill.

“It never stopped, this running. We were constant prey, and the hunters soon became big blurs: the police, the gangs, the junkies, the dudes on Garvey Boulevard who took our money, all smudged into one. Sometimes they were teachers who jumped on us Mexicans as if we were born with a hideous stain. we were always afraid. Always Running.”
For many years, there has been a lot of controversy centering on the rate at which crime and violence is happening in society. Steven Pinker, the author of “Violence Vanquished” states, “We believe our world is riddled with terror and war, but we may be living in the most peaceable era in the human existence.” This quote from the article proves to many people that our world isn’t as bad as it is made out to be. In the article “Violence Vanquished” Pinker uses Logos, and an argument of fact to support the article 's central message which stands to prove violence is at an all-time low in today’s society.
“He did not smoke, and of course he did not drink; indeed, he had never tasted spirits, and was inclined to avoid people who had—a circumstance that did not shrink his social circle as much as might be supposed, for the center of that circle was supplied by the members of Garden City's First Methodist Church,a congregation totaling seventeen hundred ,most of whom were as abstemious as Mr. Clutter could desire.’’ (10) ( Culture and Community ) Capote used this quote to illustrate the culture of the village of Holcomb, where Mr.Clutter lived and how the social life of a religious family is rooted in their church. This quote represents culture, because is trying to tell us that people in Holcomb should live a life according to their religion ,because their actions affect their social circle and their community.
Do you know how it feels to be discriminated against just because of who you are? If you don’t, then read the book “The Outsiders”. The Outsiders is a novel by S.E. Hinton.
