Plutrach's Lives..................................................
Answer:
The quote: “Political victory, increasing profits, recovering from magic, meeting old friends, or a number of other happy events, inspire you and make you think that these good days are prepared for you. Do not believe. Nothing can bring peace except firm principles”
Explanation:
These lines state precisely the human condition and their opinions about luck. But Emerson believes that happiness grows from within man himself. Man is not predestined to be hostage to various events of life forever, he is able to escape or even do more than that. When good things happen, we attribute it to our good fortune, even though good things only come when you're being true to yourself. In my opinion, we have to behave as we really are. When good things come, it comes becomes we held into our firm principles. Just like Emerson said, we do not have to be someone else’s wants.
"Bakersfield," the old man said, "is my hometown." This one is correct. A fragment of the sentence is being separated by a comma, and then continuing after another comma. If the man had paused after Bakersfield and had proceeded to perform an action instead of "said," this one would have been wrong.
He never learned to tie his shoes, however he didn't need to, as he only wore sandals. This one is wrong. The word 'however' is not being used correctly and is in the wrong format. For this sentence to be correct, it would have looked like this: He never learned to tie his shoes; however, he didn't need to, as he always wore sandals. Remember that however more often times than not, can only be used when followed after a semi-colon.
"He isn't here," the somber gentleman mumbled, "I don't know when he will return." This one is wrong. "He isn't here" is a complete sentence, not a fragment of one. For this to have been right, it would have to have looked like this: "He isn't here," the somber gentleman mumbled. "I don't know when he will return." See the difference? There should have been a period after mumbled, so that he could continue onto his next sentence.
From the first line, "It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife," Austen established an underlying irony to the tone of the novel. This one is correct. I at first believed it to be wrong, but I misread it. Here it uses the sentence structure where it gives an object a name. What I mean by this is if you said "My dog, Charles, went for a walk." You would use commas to separate the name you have now given your dog from the rest of the sentence. A pause, if you will. This is the same thing going on here, making the commas correct. The reason there is a comma after "wife" and not after the quotation marks is because you are not allowed to place punctuation after a quotation mark like that. They must ALWAYS be kept inside of your quotation marks.
Your correct sentences would be the first and last.
