Yes, movies! Look at them — All of those glamorous people — having adventures — hogging it all, gobbling the whole thing up! You know what happens? People go to the movies instead of moving! Hollywood characters are supposed to have all the adventures for everybody in America, while everybody in America sits in a dark room and watches them have them! Yes, until there’s a war. That’s when adventure becomes available to the masses! Everyone’s dish, not only Gable’s! Then the people in the dark room come out of the dark room to have some adventures themselves — Goody, goody! — It’s our turn now, to go to the south Sea Island — to make a safari — to be exotic, far-off!

Parker’s ___ of romantic love calls the reader’s attention to the frequent false hope and promises of romantic love, lovers, and even romantic poetry. This allows the reader to appreciate the artistic nature of the love poem, while simultaneously reaching an understanding that the concept of romantic love is not sustainable and a false reality.12) The Yellow Wall-Paper (Charlotte Perkins Gilman)

Personally, I disagree with their ideas.
Personally, I believe that congenial work, with excitement and change, would do me good.

By any other name would smell as sweet.”23) The Good Morrow (by John Donne)
