G. K. Chesterton wrote the essay ''The Fallacy of Success'' to expose the false claims of books that teach the secrets of success. He demonstrates how the lessons in those self-help books are empty, vague statements that don't lead readers to gain wealth. Instead, he says, they promote snobbery, greed, and materialism.

From the excerpt of Inferno “Just as he finished, the blackened landscape. Violently shuddered — with the fright of it. My memory once more bathes me in sweat.”
The line “violently shuddered—with the fright of it” could be categorized as an image and a sensory appeal.

Igoryamba
At the time of Kennedy's presidency no one was still very nice to the Africans. The time of the Civil Rights movement was about to be at its peak and when when Kennedy did this speech he said it as in a way to say, "Hey, no matter what heritage you belong to or what your skin tone is, we should all be friendly to each other and help each other out." That was his way of asking for equality and the peace for the Africans. He wanted them to have the same rights as the white men had at the time. "Without regard to his race or color" meant that everyone that was different should still be together and not worry about that because it did not matter as long as they all agreed in a uniform idea that would be the best for the country and its people.
