Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

This quote was made by Winston Churchill, an orator who knew the courage it took to speak and also to listen.

The quote "COURAGE is what it takes to stand up and speak and what it takes to sit down and listen" basically means it takes courage to do the right thing (decide when to stand up and speak and when to sit down and listen).

Courage does not always mean standing up and speaking, sometimes it entails sitting down, questioning your own opinions and beliefs and listening to other people speak.

The summary of this text is that;

  • we are all blessed with some potentials from God. However, we need to courageously express the talents which we have been bequeathed.

Ralph Waldo Emerson was a philosopher and essayist who enjoyed solitude and recommended some moral etiquettes.

One of these etiquettes is self-reliance. In this excerpt, Emerson likens humans to an eye that was placed so that a ray could fall on it. This eye can testify of the ray.

This shows that we were created purposefully. We have also been blessed with talents. Cowards hide their own talents. We should not be cowards, rather, we should courageously express the gifts that we possess.

To what does rusell compare the soldiers?
grigory [225]

Answer:

The Soldier by Rupert Brooke and Dulce et Decorum Est by Wilfred Owen were both written during world war one. War and death are the themes of both poems but they are written from different perspectives. Brooke seems to base his poem on myth because overall he says that it is good to die for your country while fighting at war is terrible and that it is every soldier for himself and not for your country.

  There are many reasons why Brooke and Owen have different attitudes to war. For example Brook wrote The Soldier at the beginning of the war but Owen wrote it in 1916. Brooks wrote his poem as someone who hasn't been at war and at this time people…show more content…

Owen also shows how the men feel and how they look. Take for example when Owen is describing in the final stanza the man which died from the earlier gas attack," Behind the wagon that we flung him in, And watch the white eyes writhing in his face, His hanging face, like a devil's sick of sin, If you could hear, at every dolt, the blood come gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs. Bitter as the cud. Of vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues."

  In Brook's poem of The Soldier he uses his language softly to show the people at home that the war is good and that if people die there for their country they are looked upon as an honourable person. But in Owen's poem of Dulce et Decorum Est, it uses language harshly by using similes and metaphors to emphasise the misery he witnessed and the violence of war. Here are some examples," Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hoots of gas-shells dropping softly behind.", "His hanging face, like a devil's sick of sin.", "My friend, you would not tell with such high zest to children ardent for some desperate glory, the old Lie: Duke et decorum est Pro parr/a man"
