Slush Wet Love Pretzels Snow
363 words
I'm really not sure how a lot of things I took
away from Cheryl Brown's Lecture related to the
Canterbury Tales, but they are worthy of reaction
nonetheless. I wonder really if we are limited in
the English Language with a word like "love" that
can mean so many different things. We have to take
the word in context to fully understand its
degree. We can find that the word in "I love
pretzels" is a lesser degree than "I love my
mother. " We do have words that might fit the
first sentence: like, en...

Meaning Of Love Benjamin Franklin
803 words
The famous Benjamin Franklin once said, "If you
would be loved, love and be lovable. " But what is
love, it can be defined by the Webster's
dictionary as a "profoundly tender, passionate
affection for another person. " Even with that
just being said countless poets, philosophers, and

critics suggest that it lacks metaphysical depth.
Play is filled with Renaissance motives, which
leaves no doubt, as to when it was written. In
late 16 th century, Christianity had lost its
religious credibility, in the eyes of European
intellectuals, which is why they were
subconsciously trying to find a new ideal that
could serve as spiritual foundation...
