There was a man who had worked all of his life, had saved all of his money, and was a real miser when it came to his money.\n \nJust before he died, he said to his wife, "When I die, I want you to take all my money and put it in the casket with me.  I want to take my money to the afterlife with me."\n \nAnd so he got his wife to promise him with all of her heart that when he died she would put all of the money in the casket with him.\n \nWell, he died.\n \nHe was stretched out in the casket, his wife was sitting there in black, and her friend was sitting next to her.\n \nWhen they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers got ready to close the casket, the wife said, "Wait just a minute!"\n \nShe had a box with her, she came over with the box and put it in the casket.\n \nThen the undertakers locked the casket down and they rolled it away.\n \nSo her friend said, "Girl, I know you weren't fool enough to put all that money in there with your husband."\n \nThe loyal wife replied "Listen, I'm a Christian, I can't go back on my word.  I promised him that I was going to put that money in that casket with him."\n \n"You mean to tell me you put all that money in the casket with him!!!!?"\n \n"I sure did," said the wife.  "I got it all together, put it into my account and wrote him a check.  If he can cash it, he can spend it."

Sir:\n\nWe congratulate the American people upon your re-election by a large majority. If resistance to the Slave Power was the reserved watchword of your first election, the triumphant war cry of your re-election is Death to Slavery.\n\nFrom the commencement of the titanic American strife the workingmen of Europe felt instinctively that the star-spangled banner carried the destiny of their class. The contest for the territories which opened the dire epopee, was it not to decide whether the virgin soil of immense tracts should be wedded to the labor of the emigrant or prostituted by the tramp of the slave driver?\n\nWhen an oligarchy of 300,000 slaveholders dared to inscribe, for the first time in the annals of the world, "slavery" on the banner of Armed Revolt, when on the very spots where hardly a century ago the idea of one great Democratic Republic had first sprung up, whence the first Declaration of the Rights of Man was issued, and the first impulse given to the European revolution of the eighteenth century; when on those very spots counterrevolution, with systematic thoroughness, gloried in rescinding "the ideas entertained at the time of the formation of the old constitution", and maintained slavery to be "a beneficent institution", indeed, the old solution of the great problem of "the relation of capital to labor", and cynically proclaimed property in man "the cornerstone of the new edifice" — then the working classes of Europe understood at once, even before the fanatic partisanship of the upper classes for the Confederate gentry had given its dismal warning, that the slaveholders' rebellion was to sound the tocsin for a general holy crusade of property against labor, and that for the men of labor, with their hopes for the future, even their past conquests were at stake in that tremendous conflict on the other side of the Atlantic. Everywhere they bore therefore patiently the hardships imposed upon them by the cotton crisis, opposed enthusiastically the proslavery intervention of their betters — and, from most parts of Europe, contributed their quota of blood to the good cause.\n\nWhile the workingmen, the true political powers of the North, allowed slavery to defile their own republic, while before the Negro, mastered and sold without his concurrence, they boasted it the highest prerogative of the white-skinned laborer to sell himself and choose his own master, they were unable to attain the true freedom of labor, or to support their European brethren in their struggle for emancipation; but this barrier to progress has been swept off by the red sea of civil war.\n\nThe workingmen of Europe feel sure that, as the American War of Independence initiated a new era of ascendancy for the middle class, so the American Antislavery War will do for the working classes. They consider it an earnest of the epoch to come that it fell to the lot of Abraham Lincoln, the single-minded son of the working class, to lead his country through the matchless struggle for the rescue of an enchained race and the reconstruction of a social world.

Greed. Read below about the Pardoner's Tale which is where you'll find the quote.\n\nThe Pardoner’s Tale:  Use of Verbal and Situational Irony       \n\n  \n\nIn “The Pardoner’s Tale,” Geoffrey Chaucer masterfully frames an informal homily.  Through the use of verbal and situational irony, Chaucer is able to accentuate the moral characteristics of the Pardoner.  The essence of the story is exemplified by the blatant discrepancy between the character of the storyteller and the message of his story.  By analyzing this contrast, the reader can place himself in the mind of the Pardoner in order to account for his psychology. \n\n In the Prologue of the tale, the Pardoner clearly admits that he preaches for nothing but for the greed of gain.  His sermons revolve around the biblical idea that “the love of money is the root of all evil” (1 Timothy 6:10).  Ironically, however, the Pardoner condemns the very same vice that he lives by, as he proclaims “avarice is the theme that I employ in all my sermons, to make the people free in giving pennies—especially to me”.  Thus, covetousness is both the substance of his sermons as well as the mechanism upon which he thrives. He clearly states that repentance is not the central aim of his preaching, by mentioning “my mind is fixed on what I stand to win and not upon correcting sin”. Rather, his foremost intention is to acquire as many shillings as he can in exchange for his meaningless pardons.  In this regard, one can argue that although the Pardoner is evil, he is not a dissembler.  His psychology is clearly not guided by hypocrisy because he does not conceal his intentions under false pretences. \n\n Chaucer clouds the genuine nature of the Pardoner’s psychology in ambiguity.  Upon reading the tale, the reader is left to wonder whether or not the pardoner is simply speaking out of drunkenness, or if he is truly of a malicious character.  With respect to the first condition, there is a possibility that the reason why he admits his intention in the Prologue is because he is drunk.  However, evidently, such behavior is a common practice for the Pardoner.  Thus, it is fair to say that he is prompted more by psychological tendencies than by drunkenness.  With respect to the Pardoner’s character, had he been truly vindictive, he would not have admitted his own greed at all.  Furthermore, he must possess some virtue because he understands the value of repentance.  Hence, the Pardoner’s psychology is neither tainted by drunkenness nor does it reflect an inherently evil character. \n\n The psychology of the Pardoner is actually directed by immoral habits.  Because he is so used to wheedling money out of people, it comes automatically for him.  Psychologically, the Pardoner is a clever man.  Essentially, the Pardoner envelops his sermon on avarice around a subliminal message, urging his audience to purchase his indulgences. \n\n The psychology of the Pardoner is defined by his unyielding love of money. He confesses that his morals are distorted when he states “I can denounce, indeed, the very vice I practice, which is greed”.  Yet, his impurity is not so much a result of his sins as it is a result of his reluctance to change his ways.  He, himself, needs to seek repentance and absolution from his pursuits.  The church was merely his instrument for obtaining money.  As Chaucer notes:  “Best of all he sang the offertory, for he understood that when that song was sung, then he must preach and sharpen his tongue to rake in cash, as well he knew the art, and so he sang out gaily, with full heart”. \n\n   Hence, one can note that the mind of the Pardoner is replete with subtle, contradictory nuances.  Analyzing the machinations of his thought processes, it is clear that the Pardoner does not practice what he preaches.  It is ambiguous, however, as to whether the Pardoner believes what he preaches, but just doesn’t follow his preaches or whether he doesn’t bel

Quote; "Anyone who starves themselves over any cause is stupid. Can't change things when you are dead, so yes the death was in vain. Even a gator could figure that out."\n\nGator has obviously never heard of Bobby Sands or the other 9 Irish Hunger strikers of 1981. As a result of their sacrifice, Bobby Sands was elected to Parliament while still on hunger strike, hundreds of people joined the IRA and the Good Friday Agreement was signed. Among other things, the Good Friday Agreement forced the brits to share governmental power with Irish Republicans AND forced the brits to release ALL IRA prisoners from their prisons! Don't tell me they died in vain. They were locked away in a prison, with no weapons, yet managed to change the whole course of Irish history.\n  Sadly, I must admit that I know nothing of Subhas Srivastava. But he has got people talking. And I will read up on him and his cause. So be sure, he did not die in vain.

Fitzgerald's description of Tom Buchanan's colossal house signifies Tom and his values. The red and white colors of the Buchanan's mansion represent Tom's personality. Red customarily exemplifies impurity and boldness, while white signifies Tom's superior attitude towards other individuals. His "red" disposition is presented by the audacity of his exposed affair with Myrtle and his "white" character is portrayed through his racist comments throughout the book. A Georgian Colonial mansion signifies Tom's racist personality due to the past history of the Southern states prejudices against African-Americans. Fitzgerald's diction of "Colonial" also expresses that Tom is old-money and was raised from a prep-school background, which alludes the reader that he is not a very open-minded character, but relies more heavily upon literary knowledge. The house is distinctly a portrayal of Tom and his bold, egotistical, racist, scholarly manner.\n\nFinally, near the books conclusion, Fitzgerald hints at his thesis with Nick's description on page 141 when Jordan, Tom and he returned from the city: "The Buchanan's house floated suddenly toward us through the dark..." Tom's facilitation of Mr. Wilson's murdering of Gatsby followed by Mr. Wilson killing himself was a post-climatic climax. This end finally made us realize the definite evil of the "Tom Buchanans" and feel wrenched emotions on behalf of Gatsby, "the poor son-of-a-bitch." While Gatsby was perhaps corrupt, what he stood for (his dream) was absolutely immaculate and genuine.

Do you know the one that starts out something like:\n'For want of a nail, a shoe was lost, for want of a shoe, a horse was lost...'\nIt's talking about a particular king of England who was very meticilous about his battle preparations, down to making sure that every horse had a good shoe on every foot.\n\nOr how about:\n'Georgie Porgie pudding and pie\nKissed the girls and  made them cry....'\nThis one is refering to a certain British duke, George Villiars, who was had an affair with the Queen of France, which hurt England and France's relationship, but the king protected him because of George's affair with him. Kinda gross, huh?\n\nOr Jack and Jill? King Louis the XVI and Queen Marie Antoinette of France who both got beheaded.\n\n'Mary, Mary* quite contrary,\nHow does your garden** grow\nWith silver bells and cockle shells***\nAnd pretty maids all in a row'****\n*Mary Tudor of England, aka, Bloody Mary\n**Graveyards full of Protestant martyrs\n***Instruments of tortue\n****Guillotines\n\nFor more, visit the link below

From Shakespeare's "Henry VI":\n\n---------------\nDICK.\nThe first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers. \n\nJACK CADE.\nNay, that I mean to do. Is not this a lamentable thing, that of the skin of an innocent lamb should be made parchment? that parchment, being scribbled o'er, should undo a man? Some say the bee stings: but I say, 'tis the bee's wax; for I did but seal once to a thing, and I was never mine own man since.- How now! who's there?\n---------------\n\nDespite what the ignorant believe, Shakespeare is not anti-lawyer, he's anti-anarchy.  Dick and Jack are revolutionaries intent on overthrowing the monarchy.

1) Tom Buchanan -  Daisy’s immensely wealthy husband, once a member of Nick’s social club at Yale. Powerfully built and hailing from a socially solid old family, Tom is an arrogant, hypocritical bully. His social attitudes are laced with racism and sexism, and he never even considers trying to live up to the moral standard he demands from those around him. He has no moral qualms about his own extramarital affair with Myrtle, but when he begins to suspect Daisy and Gatsby of having an affair, he becomes outraged and forces a confrontation. (Spark Notes)\n\n2)Tom\nBeing born into a family that is wealthy has made Tom a spoiled man. He hasn't really worked his entire life and instead spends his days in indulgence and ease. This is what motivates Tom; gratification. He has a shameless affair with Myrtle because it satisfies his needs. He flaunts their relationship in public because he does not concern himself with the consequences of his actions, he's never had to. This is also why he and Daisy escape in the end of the book. There was a situation they would have to face and they didn't want to. So they ran to their money and fled the situation, leaving it to be dealt with by others. Tom will spend his whole life doing things like that because that is who he is: A careless man who won't be bothered by the suffering he causes. (Homework-online)\n\nTheme discussion (homework-online)\nTheme Discussion\nThe word that can sum up many of the themes in the book is position. The word encompasses themes like class, wealth, social standing, and others. Gatsby's whole life is spent trying to attain money and status so that he can reach a certain position in life. That is what motivated him to move to West Egg, make money by any means necessary, and strive to win Daisy back. There is a position in life that he yearns for and will do all that it takes to achieve it. \n\nDaisy and Tom on the other hand show how people can use their position to look down on others and live their life carelessly. As Nick says about Daisy, "in a moment she looked at me with an absolute smirk on her lovely face as if she had asserted her membership in a rather distinguished secret society to which she and Tom belonged". It is this superior mind set that allows Tom to cheat on his wife and allows he and Daisy to run away from the death of Myrtle. They need not worry about such things because they are too good for it. Nick sees it as a kind of carelessness. "They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness...". They can use their wealth and position to escape whatever they choose. \n\nThe word careless also sums up one of the most important ideas in the book. Nick refers to Jordan, Tom, and Daisy as careless in one form or another. Their actions are careless and they are careless people. This is due to the ease of their life. These people live the decadent life of the roaring twenties that many of the writers of this era were criticizing. The mindless, indulgent, irresponsible life style where consequence is just an afterthought. Fitzgerald uses these characters to expose this life with their selfish actions. This carelessness can be seen when Tom and Daisy run away after Myrtle is killed or when Jordan is driving Nick through the city. These people do not worry about paying for their actions so they do as they please. Tom is not worried about hurting Daisy so he flaunts his relationship with Myrtle, his mistress. Daisy, in turn, goes off with Gatsby without a thought to her marriage. Consequence is a unheard of concept to these people so they live their lives without thinking about it.

I found a quotable search engine on the net. I don't know if it has the quote you are looking for; but at least I may be able to point you in the right direction.\n\nhttp://www.quotableonline.com/\n\nI think that quote was in the movie Fahrenheit 451. Toward the end of the movie; there are a collection  of people who memorise books; and I think that quote is where an old man about to die is teaching his book to a young child about 5 or 6 years old.\n\nI don't think the movie tells which book the old man is teaching the child though.
