Quotes on "The Little Prince"

"I am drinking...So that I may forget... Forget that I am ashamed...Ashamed of drinking!" This quote is expressed by tippler the Little Prince meets on the third planet he visits. This quote I believe shows how people obsessions can lead to a dependency that they hope will end and yet also desire to not end.

"For what the king fundamentally insisted upon was that his authority should be respected...But, becouse he was a very good man, he made his orders reasonable." This quote describes the desire for absolute power held by the king the Little Prince met on the first planet. This qoute illustrates that the king desired complete power to such an extent that he gave orders that one could nnot help but follow in order to feel obeyed.

Tom finally catches Jerry

 

I finally did it, after 70 years I, Thomas the Cat, have finally caught Jerry. It took 5 ironing boards, 3 pies, 9 fish bowls, 119 hairpins, 89 nail, 30 pounds of lumber, 8 sticks of dynamite, 15 pounds of cheese, a bank vault, 17 neighborhood cats, and 1 mousetrap, but I finally have Jerry. I never thought this day would come.I think I will make my famous mouse pot pie. All I have to do now is catch that stupid canary and retarded goldfish.

The cat had themouse in his paw and stared at it. It had built a crazy machine that the mouse avoided only to be caught by a mousetrap.The cat smiled a devilish, toothy grin while running throughout the house holding the mouse. The mouse did not appear afraid, but it seemed as if it were simply bored.

Tom the cat was filled with joy now that he had caught Jerry the mouse. He did not care that his complicated trap had failed and that Jerry had simply tripped and got his tail caught in the mousetrap around the corner. Tom didn't stop and think that it would probably take another 70 years to get the goldfish and canary needed for his mouse pot pie.

When the servant awoke the next morning he felt warmer than he usually did in the morning and well rested. As he went to fill his master's tub with hot water he noticed that the water buckets felt lighter with each step that he took. While his master was bathing he went to retrieve his master's clothes, and when the servant reached for the clothes he noticed that his nails not only seemed longer and harder but that they seemed to be growing before his eyes. The servant suddenly began to feel an annoying itch all over his body and as he watched his skin began to take on a golden hue and change to a scaled pattern. He felt the skin on his back begin to stretch and grow and when he twisted his head to see he realized that his neck had also grown longer. Upon his back he watched as a pair of leathery wings grew form his back.
The servant took only a few moments to witness these incredible changes before he remembered his master was waiting on him. Fearing his master's wrath the servant attempted to carefully pick up his master's clothing with his now fully formed golden claws. The servant went back to his master's bath chamber and had just managed to get inside the door when his master burst through the door with a whip in hand planning to whip the servant for having made him wait. Upon seeing what his once worthless servant had become the master dropped to his knees and began to beg for mercy.
The servant, upon seeing his master bowed before him, moved forward towards the mirror upon his master's wall saw that he had become a golden dragon with large powerful limbs and wings. As he watched he noticed with vision that had become enhanced along with his transformation that he was still growing and the rate he was growing was increasing. He watched as thin trails of smoke began to come from his mouth and realized that soon the room would be to small to contain him. The former-servant tensed his muscles and threw himself out the high window and snapped open his wings to glide down to the courtyard of his former master as his transformation become complete.
By noon that day the former-servant had grown to be over 40 feet long from snout to tail and was 20 feet high at the shoulder when on all fours. It was only after his final transformation and remembering the fear upon his former-master's face that he now realized what he had gained with his new form. The servant turned dragon had gained power.

The servant's life was never filled with luxury. He fought with other servant's over the table scraps that their master threw out after each meal. He went to sleep late only to have to wake up early to be able to have his master's bath and clothes prepared for the day. Any mistake was harshly punished and rarely was one ever rewarded. The last ten years of his servitude were greatly awaited, after which he would be free once more. The day his master sent him to town to buy a new bookcase was the day things changed. While walking to the shop for the bookcase an old man came forward and begged him for a single coin. The servant bent forward and gave the old man one of the few gold coins he had managed to keep hidden from his master. The old man bowed low thanking the servant and saying how his life would be blessed for his kindness. The servant returned back to his master's home with the bookcase in tow and the night went to sleep wondering how any blessing could come from a servant's life.

Avant-Garde And U

Avant-garde was a artistic movement during the 1900's in which artist became more individualized and denied the stricter limitations of what was defined as art. It began in Fance in 1850, but did not become very prominent until the early 1900's. Two branches of avant-garde are pop art and post-impressionism.


Pop Art first emerged in the mid-1950's in Britain. It challenged traditional art by allowing artist to use mass produced products as focuses in their fine art. Key figures are men such as Andy Warhol And Roy Lichtenstein. Main inspirations of pop art are comic book images or images of popular culture.

Andy Warhol's, Campbell's Soup

The term Post-Impressionism first emerged in 1910 to describe the change of art after Manet. Post-Impressionists followed Impression while rejecting its limitations. They continued using vivid colours, thick application of paint, distinctive brush strokes, and real-life subject matter, but they were more inclined to emphasize geometric forms, to distort form for expressive effect, and to use unnatural color. Key figures were Georges Seurat and Paul Gauguin.

Here I am

I am the one and only Jakobi Scroggins. I intend to go to a School of Education in the Southeast U.S. to pursue a career in education. I am a "TRACK STAR" when it is time to run the 110 hurdles!!  I run just because I enjoy and I think that if I can't remember something then I probably do not want to.
