how can i relate lady macbeth's line, "Out, damned spot! Out, I say!" to the theme of appearance vs reality

That's an easy one...she keeps thinking that there is blood on her dress and she can't get the stain out, but the blood is not really there.  To an outsider, no one would know that she was a murderer (appearance) but the reality is that she is guilty.

Let me tell you a story. This question was set to a knight who was very unhappy becouse he couldn't solve it, until he met an ugly old crone who said she would tell him the answer if he married her. Reluctantly he agreed, she told him the answer and the mystery was solved. When the crone arrived at his castle the knight was astonished to find her transformed into a beautiful maiden, she told him she was cursed to be a crone only half the day. He requested she be beautiful at night, which made her angry as people would mock her if she was a crone all day. He changed his mind and said be beautiful by day, which made her angry as she thought he didn't care what she looked like. So he said " I can't decide, you choose " At that moment the curse was broken as he had given her what every woman wants, HER OWN WAY.  (Of course every womans way is subtly different, and the exact details are something you will have to figure out. Mostly we wan't men to be able to read our minds and know what we are thinking)

in what context do you need these analogies?\nlike poetic or exact descriptions?

You could do two poems in free verse.  One would be written with all the misspellings, improper capitalizations and improper punctuation that are evident in your question above.  The other would be the same poem, only written in standard English.  Your point would be, the first poem represents how you think society views you, and how you would have ended up if you had given in to the racism you experienced.  The second poem, written properly, represents how you view yourself, and what you have managed to achieve *despite* the racism.

Ok, I will help - but I will not give you the answers, that's not help.  If the Shakespearean-era language is difficult to get through, I suggest checking out a noted version of the play (Penguin Publishing has some excellent, quite affordable paperback versions) to help you understand who's saying what.  You might also try to find a full production of the play or a video version. (Zeffirelli's is visually stunning, but leaves out a lot of the by-play.  The newer version with DiCaprio & what's-her-name is visually odd, but leaves in more of the dialogue.  Most libraries also will have the odd BBC or Canadian production in their media library, and these are usually complete dialogue without anything too extreme in the way of visuals.)\n\n1. Think about social conventions of the time - Juliet is a young, unmarried but highly marriageable woman.  Also, think about any parents' natural reaction if they were to find their daughter in the company of any young man - especially if that young man was a member of a family you hated.\n\n2 & 4 are very closely related.  Think about modern divorce rates in marriages that are made quickly - then think about a society where annulments were possible but difficult and divorce as such was not really an option.\n\n3. Reread the scene, and think about Juliet being a young woman besotted, while the nurse is somewhat of a doddering old lady who tends to ramble on and on and on (and some of her lines do amount to Elizabethan toilet humour, by the way).\n\n5.  Think about the purpose of a foil.  Mercutio & Nurse are both close to the main characters, and marginally involved/possibly condoning their behaviours.  Pick out a few key points in the act and you should have no trouble getting 8 to 10 sentences.  For example, do these characters encourage this lovelorn behaviour between the main characters? How? Why?\n\nPersonal sidenote/pet peeve about this play: Why does everyone perform the Queen Mab speech as though it's a huge dramatic foreshadowing?  It is, even the densest people grasp that after seeing the play once - but keep in mind Mercutio's playful, sarcastic character - why on earth would he of a sudden burst into this long prophetic rant?  I've gotten a few people to read it as a mocking, sarcastic sort of monologue, and have been far more pleased with it...

While there are many critics to choose from, my two choices are Lionel Charles Knight and George Wilson Knight because, although they criticized the same play and theme, they have different points of view.\n\nOr you could break it into two sentences:\n\nThere are many critics to choose from and my two choices are Lionel Charles Knight and George Wilson Knight.  These two men criticized the same play and theme and had different points of view that are worthy of discussion.\n\nUse your commas and re-phrase just a little but I think the sentence still works for you.  The rest of your paragraph will decide on the "flow" of your sentence(s).\n\nGood luck!

well if you want to stick with that i would use lust insted of fling....it just sounds better. personally i think once you get started those words might be a little tricky because they are definintly more opposite of eachother than similar\n\nmaybe these ideas could help..... hate and racisim.....fat and obese....attractive and beautiful......wealth and money....popular and famous.....

Don't let it bother you.  Shakespeare said : All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players.\nIt's when the mask slips and shows the horrible real you that you need to worry.

From one of the speeches in Henry VI part 2 (that's a Shakespeare play!)\n\nHere's the speech. The origin of Mum's the word comes in the third line:\n\n\n    Hume must make merry with the duchess' gold;\n    Marry, and shall. But how now, Sir John Hume!\n    Seal up your lips, and give no words but mum:\n    The business asketh silent secrecy.\n    Dame Eleanor gives gold to bring the witch:\n    Gold cannot come amiss, were she a devil.\n    Yet have I gold flies from another coast;\n    I dare not say, from the rich cardinal\n    And from the great and new-made Duke of Suffolk,\n    Yet I do find it so; for to be plain,\n    They, knowing Dame Eleanor's aspiring humour,\n    Have hired me to undermine the duchess\n    And buz these conjurations in her brain.\n    They say 'A crafty knave does need no broker;'\n    Yet am I Suffolk and the cardinal's broker.\n    Hume, if you take not heed, you shall go near\n    To call them both a pair of crafty knaves.\n    Well, so it stands; and thus, I fear, at last\n    Hume's knavery will be the duchess' wreck,\n    And her attainture will be Humphrey's fall:\n    Sort how it will, I shall have gold for all.

OK, the person who said 'decorative fungus' is referring to the fact that Blanche, while attractive, is sort of growing and spreading and casting a nasty shadow over the Kowalskis.\n\nThe 'doomed dinosaur aproaching excinction' quote refers to the fact that Blanche is aging ungracefully, throwing herself at younger men in order to make herself feel better about her diminishing appearance, and envying her sister for having a young, fertile life with a husband and a baby on the way.  Because of the jealousy, denial, and fear she has about growing old, she comes across less like a sexy temptress and more like a sad, middle-aged woman who can't come to terms with her own reality.  I hope that helps!
