What the section above basically says is:
<em>They offered him a crown, but he pushed it away with his hand, and then his people started shouting.</em>
These lines are from Julius Caesar, a tragedy written by Shakespeare. It retells the historical events of Julius Caesar's life, politics, and ultimately his death, having been betrayed and murdered by one of his closest friends, Brutus. Casca, who says these words, is one of the people who actually killed Caesar.
I watched as my wife passed by, taking deep breathes from a cigarette. I saw every fine detailed about her, her long curvy legs, her hair so perfectly tied back. I saw her black dress, silk and smooth that the light glister off it. I saw the pearl necklace around her neck, the one I bought her. I saw the beautiful face of the heavens, oh how she took every ounce of my breathe away. I smiled at her, she kindly returned back. For a moment, the world stood still. But it went back to my normal life, and the women I saw was just words I wrote on a piece of paper.

Answer:
From the earliest chapters, Sinclair describes men purposely seeking out or simply not being able to avoid alcohol. Certainly it is a cheap and easily accessible escape from the horrors of their lives. However, many men drink because bars are the only place in Packingtown to get warm, and men are only allowed to sit in the warm bars if they are drinking. These warm bars also provide food, but again, only to drinking customers. In addition to providing food and warmth, bars are relatively clean in comparison to the filthy, blood-soaked killing floors, which are the only other places men can eat their meals during the workday. Alcohol is yet another way for businesses to exploit the basic needs of hardworking men, perpetuating their struggles within the evil capitalist structure. Bars are businesses like any other, seeking to make as much money as possible. In order to do so, they must encourage men to drink, despite the fact that alcohol offers no nutritional value, is expensive, and weakens the body and mind, rendering exploited men like Jurgis less able to achieve their American Dream. Although Jurgis abstains at first, he begins drinking to ease his physical pain after his grueling work in the fertilizer plant. He also uses it to dampen his emotional pain. As soon as Ona dies, for example, he sets out to "get drunk." Through the working class's relationship with alcohol, Sinclair suggests that it is another form of exploitation (by tavern owners, who are in cahoots with the slaughterhouse and the police) and that in a more perfect society, men would not turn to it in the first place.

Explanation:
"Midsummer Night's Dream" is a play written by Shakespeare. This play is a comedy, where there is a lot of confusion with couples in love, humans and fairies.
In this play we are introduced to Hermia and Lysander, who are in love and want to get married, but cannot. Hermia's father promised her in marriage to Demetrius who loves her, but Helena loves Demetrius who is not interested in her.
The four young people are victims of a fairy prank that makes Helena fall in love with Lysander, while Demetrius and Lysaner fall in love with Helena. This creates a great deal of confusion, which needs to be resolved by Theseus, the Duke of Rome.
When Theseus goes to talk to the young people to understand what happened, Demetrius tells him:
<em>"My love to Hermia,
</em>
<em>Melted as the snow, seems to me now
</em>
<em>As the remembrance of an idle gaud"</em>
