By utilizing a more proper tone, he presents his argument objectively, thereby making it more effective. This is seen most often in the dialogue of the characters, such as Homer and Dr. Larch, the main protagonists. Their speech patterns do not fully match up with other characters presented in the book, but rather they have a more educated way of speech. This can best be seen between Homer and the apple pickers at Ocean View Orchards when
Dr Larch who will have an emotional bond with Homer.

Now every character goes through many different situations and are faced with different obstacles that they must over come. Dr. Larch has to over come the ability to realize he is human, and how the board wants to replace him. Mr. Rose has to over come non-diligent workers, and conflicts with his daughter and keep a calm, flowing working environment. Candy Kendall has to deal with

film were empathy, sadness, frustration and loathing. Through the viewing of the movie and the deep analyzation afterwards, I was able to accomplish the task of removing my own prejudices towards the circumstances and achieve clarity. I found Dr. Larch to be arrogant in the beginning when he was talking about the mothers and his interactions with them. He seemed to discount them and did not offer any solace to them, which I found sad. I fell into a false analogy in this instance because I failed

What is success? According to the dictionary, it is the accomplishment of an aim or purpose, but theres much more to the word than just this simple phrase. As Eric Thomas—the American motivational speaker, author, and minister—once said “When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you will be successful”. The idea of what success can bring, has motivated people throughout history to take risks and follow their dreams, no matter what the consequence is. Although achieving a long term
