Answer 2

In the quote, Fredrick Douglas compares the gentle and calm to the destructive and dangerous. A lightbulb and fire both provide light, but fire is riskier. A gentle shower would be calming, the roar of thunder frightens people and even animals. Douglas says “We need the storm, the whirlwind, and the earthquake” Douglas’s point is that we need the negative along with the positive. There has to be balance with the good and the bad.
