Write An essay on how Bill Gates Harvard Commencement Address 2007 motivate and inspires you

English

Leto [7]3 years ago

President Bok, former President Rudenstine, incoming President Faust, members of the Harvard Corporation and the Board of Overseers, members of the faculty, parents, and especially, the graduates:

I’ve been waiting more than 30 years to say this: “Dad, I always told you I’d come back and get my degree.”

I want to thank Harvard for this timely honor. I’ll be changing my job next year … and it will be nice to finally have a college degree on my resume.

I applaud the graduates today for taking a much more direct route to your degrees. For my part, I’m just happy that the Crimson has called me “Harvard’s most successful dropout.” I guess that makes me valedictorian of my own special class … I did the best of everyone who failed.

But I also want to be recognized as the guy who got Steve Ballmer to drop out of business school. I’m a bad influence. That’s why I was invited to speak at your graduation. If I had spoken at your orientation, fewer of you might be here today.

Harvard was just a phenomenal experience for me. Academic life was fascinating. I used to sit in on lots of classes I hadn’t even signed up for. And dorm life was terrific. I lived up at Radcliffe, in Currier House. There were always lots of people in my dorm room late at night discussing things, because everyone knew I didn’t worry about getting up in the morning. That’s how I came to be the leader of the anti-social group. We clung to each other as a way of validating our rejection of all those social people.

According to the study, what did John Steinbeck do to prepare for his book The Grapes of Wrath ?
Fittoniya [83]

"Grapes of Wrath", is a novel written by John Steinbeck and it was published in 1939. This is the best-known and most popular story written by the author and it won a Pulitzer Prize in 1940. "Grapes of Wrath" tells the story of a family from the Dust Bowl in Oklahoma who hit by the Great Depression, are forced to leave their homes to seek a better future in California. Along the way, this family faces many adventures and also many hardships and most importantly, they face the effects of poverty and lack of opportunity that has affected an entire country. One of the main purposes of  Steinbeck while writing "Grapes of Wrath", aside from showing the obvious devastation called by the Dust Bowl and the Great Depression, especially in Oklahoma, was to criticize the way that the lands had been used to generate profit, instead of thinking about policies to keep the people fed. In order for him to be able to portray the struggles faced in "Grapes of Wrath", one thing that Steinbeck did was visit migrants camps and share time in the small populations and establishments created by migrants in tents. There, he came face to face with the horrors being lived by these people and that was the fodder he used to write this great novel.
