You are yourself. You are your age. You have your friends and your family. You live in your culture, in this age. Now imagine th

at you are at a party. Something happens. You feel a strange tingle in your spine. You look around you, wondering what is happening. Suddenly you see why.
The eyes you accidentally stumble on lock onto yours. You have never seen them before, but you feel like you always have known them. You should be ashamed—or at least embarrassed—to be looking into a stranger's eyes like this. After what could have been a year-and-a-half but was more likely a second-and-a-half the eyes hurriedly dart away. You move yours too, frantic to find something else to look at.

Your sense of time and space is lost. Your concerns, your hopes, your dreams, your fears, your sense of self—everything, is forgotten. The bodies of your friends and fellow party-goers seem to drift around you. You hear faint, disembodied voices and sounds. You say something to someone—you don't know what or to whom—as you effortlessly drift toward an angelic figure across the floor.

Suddenly the angel is in front of you. You have no idea what to say, but you say something anyway. He or she answers you, perfectly. The person says something halfway. You finish the thought. There is nothing else but the two of you. The figures, sounds, and images around you appear as wallpaper and white noise. Someone grabs your hand and whisks you away. It's time to leave.

Hours later, you are walking home in the darkness, thinking of those eyes. You hear something, and your head spins around. You recognize that voice. He or she breaks away from a group and comes to you.

"I love you," you say. "I can't stop thinking about you."

"I know," you hear. "Meet me tomorrow."

The next day you are married. You have changed, but the rest of the world is exactly the same. Think there are going to be some problems? What will your friends say? How about your family?

Of course they will think that you are an idiot. The question is, are they right? Is it fair or accurate to call this "love"? What kind of a mess might this situation make?

How does lady Macbeth influence macbeths decision to murder Duncan
BartSMP [9]
Lady Macbeth influenced Macbeth's decision to murder Duncan by being manipulative and questioning Macbeth's status as a man. She claimed that she would have "plucked the boneless gums out of her nipple" if she had promised it to Macbeth. This prompts Macbeth to follow through with his promise when he said he would murder Duncan earlier.

She asks him if he would rather be a coward than seize an opportunity to achieve the "ornament" of life - the crown. Additionally, Lady Macbeth says that she cannot love a man who is not willing to have the integrity to do such a thing, this really persuades him as they do share a passionate bond throughout the play.

What does gandhi mean by this quote "send us to prison and we will live there as in paradise"
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

By this line, Gandhi states that he will fight to continue to fight with peace and passion, that he won’t let law and oppression break him. By throwing him in the prison, he states the government would only confirm that he is loud enough and that they are reacting violently to his peaceful manners.

Explanation:

<u>Gandhi knew that by sending him to prison, the government would have to accept that his actions are being noticed and that he is doing something that is upsetting them. </u>

This was exactly one of the purposes of Gandhi’s civil disobedience – he wanted to be noticed, he wanted to break the law, he wanted to make sure that he can’t be shut up. By being sent to prison, he would know he is going against the oppressive law and to raise awareness for the cause. Therefore, he is saying that he would know that he is doing the right thing.

Gandhi’s protection was nonviolent and he was persistent in that manner – he was certain he will not hurt anyone in his fight. <u>By being shut away, government proves that they are restrictive and hurtful towards people, that they are reacting violently to peaceful protests. </u>

<u></u>

He wrote that he will live with any punishment and continue abolishing any law that is decided, all while laughing. His line about living in the prison as in a paradise<u> meant that one of his means of protest was not to give up, not to allow the oppressors to scare him</u><u>.</u> Gandhi wanted to fight proudly and with energy, never to give his opponents the satisfaction to break him.

Alexeev081 [22]

The correct answer is Option d i.e. using textual evidence to support her inference.

This letter is entirely yours, both in the wording and the sentiment, according to the verse above from Sophie's paper on Response to Erik of Sweden

The letter makes clear that one's zeal and love for others cannot be diminished, but we are still disappointed that we are unable to show your Serene Highness the same level of affection. This isn't because we have any doubts about your honour or love; on numerous occasions, we have attested to it in writing and verbally, and we have never before imagined feeling that way about anyone.

Read the passage from Sophie’s paper on Response to Erik of Sweden.

Although Queen Elizabeth is polite, she also seems a bit annoyed.
