. He who neglects what is done for what ought to be done, sooner effects his ruin than his preservation; for a man who wishes to

In this passage, Machiavelli argues that if a man is faced with the decision of doing the virtuous thing or the thing that best assures survival, he should opt for the thing that assures survival. This is because the man who follows his virtue all the time is bound to be met with someone who does not. This would destroy the virtuous man, as his virtue would not be able to resist the attack of all the evil matters that exist in the world.

Machiavelli turns his attention to the rules  effects his ruin than his preservation; for a man who wishes to act entirely up to his professions of virtue soon meets with what destroys him among so much that is evil.  When this is done correctly, he is "reproached" by his people but not "hated.

Capulet: What noise is this? Give me my long sword!
konstantin123 [22]
To provide comic relief is the correct choice. In these lines, what is basically happening is that old men are just itching to fight one another. Lady Capulet is the only one who seemingly acknowledges the fact that both of the heads of the houses are too old to fight with swords, and jokingly points out that "a sword? what you need is a crutch." 

If you have read the entire play, this does not foreshadow the terrible tragedy of the fall of Romeo and Juliet. This is about Capulet and Montague, and neither end up dying or fighting each other with swords by the end of the play. This also does not tell you anything about the setting of the story, and from these lines, I would not even realize that they were simply at a party. This also does not help build much suspense, even though this looks like an acceptable answer because it is not building up to anything. Lady Capulet immediately shoots down his idea to fight Montague with his sword, and they never end up physically fighting later on.

The speech begins (and ends) by emphasizing freedom: what does King mean by freedom, and in what
Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

<em>I Have a Dream</em> is a speech that was delivered by Martin Luther King Jr. during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on August 28, 1963.

An important topic in the speech is freedom. When King says African Americans are still not free, he doesn't mean that they are locked up or enslaved. What he is saying is that they get treated unfairly, that they are still not considered to be equal to white people. The freedom he wants for African Americans is the right to act, speak, or think without having to face any consequences. This topic remains relevant today as racism is an issue that many people still face.
