There are many themes found in The Crucible. The one that I have chosen is "people who claim to be motivated by principle may actually be motivated by greed or revenge." In The Cruicble there are people who are filled with greed and want revenge. This is against their religion, but people have secret motives which can be harmful to others.
One statement I believe is true is that people who claim to be motivated by principle may actually be motivated by greed or revenge. I believe this because people want to better themselves from others and make others think that they have nothing against anyone or anything. Though they may not seem this way, it's usually them wanting to get revenge on someone or to receive something that they don't need. People have troubles revealing their true motives because they may be embarrassed, or they may feel ashamed for having them. People may also have troubles revealing their motives because they may be scared to explain to others why they want revenge or are greedy. Some people may harm others over greed. People can and will do anything to get what they want. They may kill someone to receive a fortune of money, or they may torture someone. People are unpredictable at what they may do. They also may want revenge, this is just about the same. If one seeks a deep revenge on another person or thing, they may get out of control, hurt someone severely, or possibly cause death. For example, during the Salem Witch Hunts, neighbors that had been angered by another neighbor may claim that one is a witch.
In conclusion, there are many things that may lead a person to claim their neighbor(s) is/are witches. One of the biggest reasons for this is that the neighbor may have had a long wish of revenge on someone, and by claiming that they are a witch they usually received what they want of their neighbor; to be imprisoned, hanged, burned, or in one rare case, crushed. They may also have greed within them. Their neighbor might own a patch of land that they would receive, but only if their neighbor be dead. | | 0 leave feedback(s) | rate post | report post |  | 10:35 pm
yearbook
Emotion
This is our cat, Banana. I wanted to use this picture because it's really shows detail of her face. Also it expresses her beautiful green eyes. This photograph shows a frustrated emotion. She was getting annoyed from me snapping my fingers to get her to look into the camera. After I took this picture, I knew I loved it. She looks sort of evil as well, making this an interesting picture.
Simplicity
This photograph displays simplicity. This is of our dog Sampson. He was focused on something in the distance, and I figured it would be a nice picture. So, I took it, and it turned out to be just that. This is simplicity because he isn't doing much in the picture, and he nearly fills up the background.

Hello people, May I ask how are you all?
It's been near 2 months since I have last posted anything, lol! Doesn't mean anyone will read this one though. I have had SSOO much homework lately, it sucks, but I need to do something other than EverQuest. Where should I start...hmm. I have a girlfriend now, it's pretty fun  ! Well, except for the fact that it's not going so well anymore  . We started going out on the 31st, and we were fine till the 3rd or so, then she started avoiding me for no apparent reason, which sucks, because we're best friends.. Or were? I think it's a bad idea going out with your best friend now, but I did like her, I really did.. I still do in a sense, but I don't like being avoided. What makes it worse is that we only have lunch together and she doesn't really talk to me then! Can you say boring!?  ..She used to talk to me all the time, so I think I am going to save our friendship and break up with her in the nicest way possible. Anyone else have a suggestion on what to do?
Also, I got my Spanish 2 grade today  got a 110% in the class!  (wants to be a linguist.)
German is 103%, I love both classes, and both of the teachers are cool too! But Geometry...that's another story...lol same for P.E. (Phy Ed) I don't have the hard Geometry problems anymore; thank god! lol
So , how are you guys doing? Inform me, I care for other peoples opinons! good or bad! (preferrably good though  )
Well, I am gonna go, was nice writing to all of you, even if you don't read it! | | 2 leave feedback(s) | rate post | report post |  | 2:27 pm

Today is fun...NOT! lol
I have had a little bit of everything today. . . First, was P.E. then when we got into the locker rooms damn cologne made it too hard to breath so I had to leave, and then was told to go back in..so..uh, lol.. I didn't. But anyways...how was your day? I made another poem... it's under this...
Was She the One?
Was she the one?
We had only just begun.
We seemed to have fun,
So why did she run?
I need not say more,
I can easily gain for,
Going back the way we were,
And never end up away from her,
I miss her so,
Why did she go?
I do not want to hate,
But why could we not relate?
Maybe it was her friends,
Or just too many tight ends,
We were not without,
Until we stopped going out!

No More... And ... Death..
NO MORE!
This is to Sweet-Chan, seeing as how we broke up.
I have you here no more,
You basically gave me the door.
I miss when we could see each other,
But it's obvious you want to be with another.
I know you don't want to be with me,
Anyone can clearly see.
As we are apart,
The distance grows,
And when I see you, your smile glows.
So, as I ask you this,
What have we done besides miss?
I can answer you,
We have done nothing more than a kiss,
But is that all we really wanted to?
As I end this for me,
I think I finally see,
You are here no more.

DEATH!
Another poem by me...Dedicated to my Brother, Troy Jr., my Uncle Marvin, and my friend Dylan Hansen.
Are you there?
I can't seem to hear.
I have no longer been able to bare,
That you no longer breathe air.
You were once alive,
You used to strive.
I didn't even say good-bye,
I wanted to and even tried.
You were there and then you weren't,
You were here and then gone,
Life has been a tough thing for you,
Or has it, does that make it true?
Where are you now?
Are you better off somehow?
What did you do to deserve this terrible fate?
If it's good, do you have a clean slate?
So among us today,
Are we better in a way?
The answer is no,
You didn't have to GO!

Poems by me . . .
Poems, by me. . .
Sorrow
I speak of grief when I say,
"Many deaths have come this way."
I'm sorry for the people dead,
But it's just God making his bed.
We shall forever remember that day,
September 11th is what we'll say.
People come people go,
I think we all should know.
Nothing good comes from this--
This is me and I try to give you blissfulness.
In remembrance of all the people,
Please visit the nearest steeple!

My Suicide!
Here today I think inside,
About throwing my life aside.
It's not once the way it was,
I wish I could change it because,
The f-u-c-k-face who ruined my life,
Will be killed and tortured by a knife.
He shall die from pain, and should suffer,
Overall I always thought I was tougher.
But today something was changed,
I don't know what, but it should be arranged.
I have been acting sort of strange,
Because of been treated like spare change.
Tossed around and flipped about,
I want this to be gone through in and throughout.
I hate my life today,
I don't even want to stay.
I want to be gone from this place,
I want pain to end today.
Make me forget before it's too late,
I hate that f-u-c-k and he's got a date,
A date with death and he will not be late.
No way, no hell will I ever want to live,
My life is done for and I need a shiv.
I want it to end just right,
I am afraid that time is tonight.
