Question

1. Summarize the quote below into 1-2 sentences. Remember this means shortening the main idea of the passage into YOUR OWN WORDS. Hint: Just ask yourself, "What is Anne's main point here?" * "I don't believe that the big men, the politicians and the capitalists alone, are guilty of the war. Oh no, the little man is just as guilty, otherwise the peoples of the world would have risen in revolt long ago! There's in people simply an urge to destroy, an urge to kill, to murder and rage, and until all mankind, or without exception, undergoes a great change, wars will be waged, everything that has been built up, cultivated, and grown will be destroyed and disfigured, after which mankind will have to begin all over again" (p. 223).

Answer 1

In this passage the writer is stating that not just the upper class is responsible. They are all guilty for starting the war and they are all seeking horrible things.... Hope this helped:)
