Algernon's display of cucumber sandwiches was referred to as reckless extravagance in a young person by Jack.

We have the hypocrisy of algernon who scolds jack for trying to take a sandwich but yet does so himself. He even ends up eating it all before lady Bracknell arrives. Then he has his servant lie that there were no cucumbers at the market.

Let’s deconstruct an example from the great Winston Churchill. All the power words are underlined:
We have before us an<u> ordeal</u> of the most <u>grievous</u> kind. We have before us many, many long months of <u>struggle</u> and of <u>suffering</u>. You ask, what is our policy? I can say: It is to wage <u>war</u>, by sea, land and air, with all our <u>might</u> and with all the<u> strength </u>that God can give us; to wage<u> war against </u>a monstrous tyranny, never <u>surpassed</u> in the dark, lamentable catalogue of<u> human crime</u>. That is our <u>policy</u>. You ask, what is our<u> aim?</u> I can answer in one word: It is <u>victory, </u>victory at all costs, victory in spite of all<u> terror, victory</u>, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no <u>survival.

Inspiring, right?
