Many scientific theories that are mentioned in the novel have been applied in real life. For example, Galvani proved that stimulation of a frog's nerve causes contraction of the muscle to which it is attached. This was proven in 1791. Because of this discovery, there was extensive research and excitement throughout the European nation on the application of electricity to sustain human life.

I need to know some quotes about learning a language
stealth61 [152]
Alright! So, some inspirational quotes on learning a language. Here's what I found, from a "Voxy Blog."

❝If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.❞

❝One language sets you in a corridor for life. Two languages open every door along the way.❞

❝The limits of my language are the limits of my world.❞

❝Learn everything you can, anytime you can, from anyone you can; there will always come a time when you will be grateful you did.❞

❝Learning is a treasure that will follow its owner everywhere.❞

❝You can never understand one language until you understand at least two.❞

❝To have another language is to possess a second soul.❞

❝Those who know nothing of foreign languages know nothing of their own.❞

❝Language is the road map of a culture. It tells you where its people come from and where they are going.❞

❝Language is the blood of the soul into which thoughts run and out of which they grow.❞


I hope this helps you, and if you're trying to learn a new language, I wish you luck! :)

What change in society would the author of Harrison Bergeron want to see happen?
Triss [41]

<u>Changes that the author of Harrison Bergeron wants to see in the society:</u>

Harrison Bergeron is a protagonist of the short science fiction story written by Kurt Vonnegut Junior.  The story envisions a society governed by the rules imposed by a lady dictator Diana Moon Glampers, the handicapper General, in charge of ensuring equality so that no one is better than anyone else.

She has devised inhuman means to enforce her set of desires using blinding spectacles, mental radio fitted in ears to hamper normal mental processes and other mechanical aids to serve her brutal purposes.  

Bergeron is a boy who has been sent to prison for no valid crime of today’s world. When he tries to assert independence and tries to overthrow domination by perpetrators of brutality, he is shot dead along with a ballerina who tries to rebel with him.  

He is the person who seeks change , speaks for his basic human rights , asserts and accepts  his independence as an integral part of his survival as a human being. He is silenced forever by the insecure General . The narrator tries to say that differences of form and intelligence make us human.

All are different. Those with higher intelligence like George, should not be handicapped but allowed to think and reason out.  A society that is governed by the maxims of welfare and freedom to live can only succeed.  Equality should not be imposed. Differences should be celebrated and allowed as being natural.
