Plato quoted it:\n\n"Remember how in that communion only, beholding beauty with the eye of the mind, he will be enabled to bring forth, not images of beauty, but realities (for he has hold not of an image but of a reality), and bringing forth and nourishing true virtue to become the friend of God and be immortal, if mortal man may."\n\nN.B.: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder."

If you have ever dwelt in darkness, you know what it is like to turn on the light. Jesus brought the light of life into my heart where there was once darkness. Yes, I did not like what I saw, but Jesus is also the Living Water, and He cleansed my soul as well.\n\nTo truly understand what Jesus was talking about, you need to understand that He was speaking while the priests were lighting the lamps of the temple.

i'm not that familiar with the story, except that it is about witch hunting in a town. this quote, whoever says it, is someone begging Thomas not to get involved in witch craft. is it his wife? that would make sense, that she's begging her husband not to get in it because the town (who was full of people paranoid about witch craft) would charge them with the crime.

It's an old English proverb.\n\nIt means if you dress up nice, it will make a better person of you (Clothes make the man, is another such proverb). For eg., if you wear a designer dress/ suit, it will make you look more classy than shabby clothes.\n\nI think the origin was Thomas Hardy's Tess of d'Ubervilles? AM not sure

My first thought was the 'light under a bushel' quote...so how about this:\n\nMatthew Chapter 5, 14-16\n\n14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. \n \n15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. \n\n \n16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. \n\n -----\n\nEmphasise verse 16, commenting that 'good works' means get off your butts and go do something that shows they can walk the walk as well as talk the talk.  There may be a more 'modern' sounding translation, I found this one on htmlbible.com.

6. i know "thou shalt see me at philippi" was just kind of foretelling what was going to happen.  When the ghost came in, if i recall correctly, he had said many things that were going to happen in the near future.  That was one of them.  \n\n9. I'm pretty sure it was Antony because his final speech to the crowd got everyone to turn on the conspirators.

The answer is in verse one.\n\n"The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw."

Haven't read it, but tip:\n\nLook for when he gives human qualities to objects\nExample: the wind slapped me across the face

It means that it is your INTENTION of your action... not just your action that is the requirement of enacting a sin.  You have to know that your action is sinful, you have to know that it is grave, and you have to willingly commit that action and this is done first in your heart then in your actions... So sin initiates in your heart... remember the parable in the Bible where Jesus said that any man that looks at a woman and lust for her in his mind, heart has already committed the sin...????  That is what your phrase means~!

You have to be specific about the part you're not understanding. The most important part of this scene is Hal's soliloquy at the very end. It's written in blank verse showing us that Hal is capable of kingly qualities. (In the entire play, the royalty etc. talk in blank verse while the tavern people talk in prose. Hal had also been talking in prose with his friends right before this soliloquy). The soliloquy shows us his Machiavellian traits - he's capable of manipulation and knows exactly what he wants to achieve by hanging out with Falstaff etc. In the soliloquy, he also uses metaphors like sun and clouds which further show us that he is capable of becoming the king. I can give further explanations if you tell me what exactly you are having trouble with.

It's been a long time since i read this but i'll try to help.  1. It means she lay down beside him after he was already dead and she was old.  So She perhaps killed him to keep him with her forever 2. I don't remember, sorry 3.  I don't know for sure but i think that would give way too much away. We are left to guess at what is going on 4. When Emily bought the rat poison and when the house smelled so bad they had to put lye around it 5. your on your own here 6. He was poor and happy and she was rich and very sheltered and unhappy and wierd.  It's basically saying money isn't all it's made out to be. In this town they seem to understand that titles aren't everything 7. She's sad and deluded but she is doing what she thinks is right.  \nI haven't read this in so long that my answers are probably quite wrong, check them with someone else first if you decide to use the ones I could remember.   This is a pretty disgusting story.  I don't really know why teachers asign it.  Good luck!
