A 200 to 350 word essay would typically be about half to one full page in length, depending on the formatting and spacing used. This length is generally considered a short essay, and it is important to focus on concise and clear writing to effectively convey your ideas within the given word limit.

Some famous examples of oratory speeches include Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream," Winston Churchill's "We Shall Fight on the Beaches," and Barack Obama's "A More Perfect Union." Each of these speeches is known for its powerful rhetoric and ability to inspire and move audiences.

Some have always attributed the saying that was inscribed over the courts of Athens, "Know Thyself" to Socrates. However, Giambattista Vico in his famous "New Science," attributed the phrase to Solon, Athenian lawmaker, poet, et cetera. I would venture to agree with the later, as through history so many things that are attributed to Socrates ought to have been attributed to their rightful origin. I believe this is an example of such a case.

Helen Keller's speech "Strike Against War" advocated for peace and discouraged warfare as a means of resolving conflicts. She believed in the power of diplomacy and nonviolent resistance to achieve lasting peace among nations. Keller emphasized the importance of promoting understanding and cooperation to prevent the devastating consequences of war.

Some people may receive 'a bitter look' with resentment or hostility, respond warmly to 'a flattering word', feel loved and affectionate with 'a kiss', and react defensively or fearfully to 'a sword'.

Mark Twain's speech in favor of votes for women in 1901 was a humorous and satirical take on the subject. He argued that women should have the right to vote because, as he jokingly put it, they already controlled men in other ways and therefore should have a say in politics as well. Twain's speech was lighthearted but made a serious point about the importance of equality in society.

"You think, therefore you are" is a famous philosophical statement by René Descartes, a French philosopher, in his work "Meditations on First Philosophy."

Speech is considered a gift because it allows us to communicate ideas, thoughts, and emotions with others. Through speech, we can build relationships, express creativity, and share knowledge, making it a powerful tool for connection and understanding.

In the poem "Dream Deferred" by Langston Hughes, people need to feel they can fulfill their dreams because when dreams are continually put off or ignored, it can lead to feelings of frustration, anger, and hopelessness. The poem highlights the importance of pursuing one's dreams and the negative consequences that can arise when those dreams are not realized. Ultimately, it stresses the significance of actively working towards fulfilling one's aspirations to avoid the challenges that may come with deferred dreams.

Philomel is the term for nightingale (a songbird) and "dumb" is the old form for saying someone is mute, won't speak. The line is basically reminding us that in winter the songbirds are all quiet because they are protecting themselves from the cold. This is in response to Marlowe's "Passionate Shepherd to His Love" and the "melodious birds sing madrigals" which plays on far more spring-like imagery.

Li Po, a renowned Chinese poet, was born in 701 and died in 762. He is considered one of the greatest poets in Chinese literature, known for his lyrical and profound works that continue to inspire readers worldwide.

To analyze the phrases in the poem "Steam Shovel," you can break down the language, imagery, and symbolism used by the poet. Consider the meaning behind specific phrases, the tone they create, and how they contribute to the overall theme of the poem. Pay attention to word choice, metaphorical language, and any recurring motifs that highlight the poet's message or emotions.

The quote is from William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet". In Act 3, Scene 2, Juliet makes this statement about Romeo after discovering his death. She envisions his spirit transforming into stars in the sky.

First, there must be love. To me, "deep love" is redundant--if it is love it is deep. I would admit that the love of newlyweds may be different than the love of a couple married for 50 years. Let's consider the 50-year couple. They know what the other likes to wear; they recognize the walk of their mate; one can finish the thoughts of the other; he has learned that it is best to just listen to her rather than try to fix the problem; she has learned to let him find the way even if it takes an hour longer because it is important to him to not fail her...one day he chooses to have an affair and she discovers it. She will experience "deep disappointment" due to the years and depth of their relationship. The newly wedded wife, if he cheats, will not experience the same level of pain. Consider, alternately, a 100-year tree versus a seedling: If one uproots the seedling for replantation it will barely notice and grow fast and strong going forward; if one uproots the mature tree the action will probably rip apart most of its roots and possibly sever the tap root, thus causing trauma that may be unrecoverable.

What is the definition of the phrase: The level of emotional pain one experiences if disappointed, is directly proportionate to the depth of his love. Greg

"Pity is treason" suggests that showing compassion or mercy can be seen as a betrayal or disloyalty, especially in situations where toughness or harshness is expected or demanded.

George Orwell is credited for writing this. There are some who will disagree with this though.

The quote refers to the military and the protection they provide to the average person. The military member is prepared to act in a manner that many wouldn't in order to protect their way of life.
