Don Quixote
Miguel de Cervantes
Page 24

In my book so far it has described Don Quixote condition and profession and his preparations to becoming a self knighted knight and one quote in the second part that is important is “he was spurred on by his conviction that the world needed his immediate presence.” This quote was significant because it shows the reason for Don Quixote’s quest. This quote affected me as reader because it shows me his quest to the world.  This contributes to the text as a whole because it’s the root of his journey.

Dog Tags Prisoner of War

The book “Dog Tags Prisoners of War” written by C. Alexander London is a interesting novel where Miguel, who is a medic in WWII, who was in battle and gets knocked out by a tree and no one is left their , only dead bodies and a military dog. A significant quote is on page 9 chapter one
where the text says “

I kind of wished I had a rifle instead of a bunch of bandages and a big Red Cross on my arm”. This shows how it was dangerous being a medic in the war and it was no job to be taken lightly. This is because they have to save people’s lives under a extreme amount of pressure, also risking his own at that the same time. Miguel is protecting and taking care of the people fighting for America which is no easy task.

Tell The Wolves I'm Home

From my book, Tell The Wolves I'm Home, I have chosen another quote with deep visuals yet a mild sorrowful mood. The quote I chosen is on chapter 7, page 32, "I wished he'd [Uncle Finn] been buried instead of cremated, because then I could take off my gloves and press my palms to the ground and know that he was there somewhere. That through all those molecules of frozen dirt there was still a connection." This section has significance to me because, like my past quote, it has deep visualization with a dash of feeling. It somewhat makes you feel for the protagonist (June) and it makes you understand where she is coming from. This affects me by causing me—like with my last quote—to be inspired and awed by not only is deep visualization, but it's calming tone yet it's grieving mood. This quote contributes to the book as a whole by presenting to readers how June feels and what she could wish for.

No its not actually a animal but It is a group of people. They all work together and act in like a same way. Which is why he refers them to the rat because of how they work together and how they are always there.

Crippled America

Donald J. Trump

I’m on page 115

The excerpt I chose was significant to the book in an important way. “I have been surprised by some people I once considered friends. I’ve had a long and good relationship with the Macy’s chairman and CEO, Terry Lundgren. .... We spent a lot of time together at Mar-a-lago and many other Trump golf courses.” Donald Trump got a call from his former friend Terry Lundgren. Lundgren called to explain that they were terminating the Trump brand from there department stores. Trump responded with saying “wow what a great active disloyalty.” I think this quote is significant to the book because many people dislike Trump. For a long time he says that they were “friends” but that would suddenly change. When Trump was running for president, Terry Lundgren decided to take all Trump branded clothes, ties, cufflinks, etc. out of his department stores. Terry Lundgren Decided to do this when Trump was making those statements about illegal immigrants especially Mexicans. On the phone Terry said to Donald “we are receiving calls from Mexicans. They’re going to picket Macy’s. I can’t let this happen, it wouldn’t be good for our company‘s reputation.” Trump went on to state how this was a very mean act of disloyalty. This is significant because Terry Lundgren and the Macy’s company were taking heat from people because of selling a persons personal brand of clothes, then decided to take all of his clothes out and end there long friendship all over selling his ties and shirts. When I read this quote for the first time in his book, I was thinking to myself, why are people so rude. I was thinking this because the Mexican people who were calling Macy’s and threatening to picket their stores got offended by what Trump said. In my opinion words are words get over it. I also thought this was rude because Macy’s terminated Trumps brand just because people were saying that they would not shop there if they still sold his brand. Overall I think that this quote was very significant to the book for the reasons states above.

In the story I am reading, Goodnight Punpun by Inio Asano, a particularly significant event occurs when Punpun, the protagonist of the story, finally reunites with his elementary school crush, Aiko, whom he has been madly obsessed with ever since they separated. However, since it's been so long since they last met, Punpun fakes a cool, collected persona in order to impress Aiko. After talking for a bit, Aiko reveals she's doing modeling as a part time job. This leads her to say "Do you remember when were kids and I said I wanted to be an actress, a singer, or a model? Looks like my dream came true.". As for how this scene is so important to the plot, it serves to remind the reader of Punpun's childhood where he wanted to become a scientist and explore space, but eventually gave up after realizing how impossible and childish it was to think that. In seeing Aiko be completely successful and content with her life, Punpun realizes how little he means to Aiko, and how he has spent so much of his life looking for her, thinking about her, when he himself has accomplished nothing of significance in his life. In contrast to this dark undertone, on the other hand, Punpun has finally found what he may consider his reason for living, since he claimed earlier in the story that if he couldn't find Aiko and make something of his life by the time his apartment lease was up, he'd "kill himself". Despite having to change everything about himself just to keep Aiko around, he is, at last, with the one person he believes to matter the most to him. This odd feeling of depression, excitement, and love, results in an awkward, melancholic mood during his outings with Aiko. The author surely added this to contrast how honest and free Punpun felt around his more recent friend Sachi.

In the novel Gossip Girl I found another interesting quote. On page 52,” Dude everybody’s going. Everybody didn’t include Dan of course.” In this part of the book they are talking about the kiss on the lips party and Dan overhears the conversation. This is significant because it sets in the idea that Dan is an outsider since he isn’t apart of there world. I thought this was a good quote to pick because I can relate to Dan since I used to not get invited to things.

On page 79 the book states “Well, the expression is ‘temporary insanity,’ isn’t it? Yes. Insantiy. Everyone has those, Gwen. Everybody.

She’s trying to convince herself that everybody goes a little crazy sometimes and that is is normal but she knows deep down that something is wrong with the house and that something is not right.

Think about the first time you came in contact with your passion, weather it’s a sport like soccer or softball, or an art like singing or acting it affects people in many different ways, and that is why this quote nips significant.

He would stake, skin, or boil alive his opponents. After his death it was recorded that he brutally murder approximation 10,000 people. His nickname comes from his infamous way of killing certain people. He would stick large stakes through their rear and push the stakes right through their entire body and stick it out through their mouths.

Title: 1984

Author: George Orwell

At this point in the story, Winston, the main character, had been keeping a diary for a while now even thought he is not allowed to be. He knows the consequences of what he is doing but he has already started and know that there’s no point in stopping. The Thought Police wouldn’t even care is he even wrote in it or not, all that mattered is that he was keeping a diary and it was not permitted. At this point in the book Winston was sitting down reflecting on his diary and what the purpose of it was, “He wondered again for whom he was writing the diary. For the future, for the past—for an age that might not be imaginary. And in front of him there lay not death but annihilation. The diary would be reduced to ashes and himself to vapor.” I feel as though this quote is significant because it perfectly describes how horrible the world is in the story, to the point that because he is writing how he feels and describing his life, he will die and everything about will be gone.

In my book Restart by Gordon Korean, a kid as lost his memory’s from amnesia and has to find who he was and if he wants to continue being who he was or create a new image for himself. For example “‘Well, I’d love to talk your ear off about my road to NFL glory’ Aaron drawls, ‘but Bear and 8 have to go water some old people”.”Wait — I’m going with you,’ I tell them. They stare at me like I’ve just announced I’m flying to Jupiter. ‘Dude you don’t have to go,’ Aaron reminds me. ‘They cut you loose because you got hurt’. ‘It'll be—fun.’ That falls flat, so I try again.’ We’re teammates right? You go, I go”(page 71). If cite from the text is very significant because Chase really wants to know who he was and if he wants to stay on that path or change and make a new image for himself. This is clearly not like his old self as you can tell from the teams reaction, Chase is a completely different person then he was before and he wants to know how and why he became such an evil creature that bullies and puts people down. This is why I thought this quote was significant to the and to the plot of the story.

The quote that I’m choosing to explain what the text is basically about is, “Basically, I’m allergic to the world. Anything can trigger a bout of sickness. It could be the chemicals in the cleaner used to wipe the table that I just touched. It could be someone’s perfume. It could be the exotic spice in the food I just ate. It could be one, or all, or none of these things, or something else entirely. This shows that you shouldn’t take life for granted and always wish for the best.

Title : The Big Band Years

Author : Bruce Crowther

In the next chapter called “New York New York”, we talked about Fletcher Henderson, one of the most influential people in the whole entire history of jazz. He helped set the bar for other bands in the scene, and he hired and made leading jazz players better. He had a great impact, but then in 1928, he got into an accident. Nobody died or got seriously injured but his personality changed. “That was the only accident he ever had, and after that- why, he just changed... he never had much business qualities anyhow, but after that accident, he had even less” said Fletcher’s wife. That was the start of his decline in music. His band fell apart swiftly and in 1939, he left his own band and joined Benny Goodman. But in 1950, he fell in the street, had a stroke, and was incapacitated until 1952, when he died. Though in the end he had a terrible fall, he had a humongous impact on the jazz community.

The Biography Opening Day by Jonathan Eig the main point that is being brought up over and over in the book is that African Americans should not have the same rights as white people. Especially in major league baseball. One significant quote to me is, “Branch Rickey believed that Robinson would earn the respect and even the administration of his teammates once they saw he could help the Dodgers win.” Page 35. This quote is significant to me because it shows that no matter what race a person is they should have the same rights as any other person in the world. Furthermore, this quote has significance because this is the turning point for the baseball world with the first African American playing. This affected me as a reader because it furthered my understand about how Jackie Robinson affected the dodgers. This contributes to the book as a whole because this was the start of Jackie Robinson’s baseball career.

In the Novel PELÉ His Life and Times by Harry Harris it is revealed that even Pelé the most legendary soccer player in history had his bad moments and times in which he  felt he wanted to quit because of his insecurities about being skinny and homesickness. In pages 28 and 29 young pele almost runs away from the professional soccer team he is playing for but thanks to a good friend of his named Sabu he is persuaded to stay both times. “Sabuzão was on his way to the market to buy fresh fish and rolls for his mother, who ran the kitchen, when he the boy (pele) carrying his tell-tale suitcase. He told Pelé not to worry about being small, that he would be the fattest man in santos in six months at the rate he was eating.Reassured, Pelé returned to his room.”

The second time Pelé intended to run away was  when he lost an important division youth game with boys younger than himself. “To lose against boys much younger than himself was a humiliation he couldn’t take. He ran straight to his room and cried himself to sleep, still wearing his sweaty kit. When he woke up in the middle of the night he packed his bag again. And for the second time, he was caught and persuaded to stay on by Sabu.”

These two excerpts show that true close friends can help you when you feel all is lost and feel like quitting. I for one have felt like quitting sometimes but thankfully never have and great things come out of not quitting  for example Pelé scored his first professional goal in his next game.

The novel “Silent Luna” by Sabrina Noury there are parts that are significant to me. But one capture my attention it states “ I shake my head, and after almost a decade, I utter two words. “I broken””(pg72). This quotes is significant to me because the character Grace who was abuse for almost 10 years. She has not spoke a word for a long time but when her mate James wanted to get her tell her past. She said that she broken because she felt ugly and dirty from her past and felt like there is no to trust. She went through so much she even call it her hell. When you read more of the novel you learn that her broken heart is being healed by love and care by everyone. She didn’t let her past affect her happiness and her future. That why I find this quote so mean much to me because nothing can hold you to be happy again.

One example of this in on page 91 of the story where Leland says,"I became the only person ever to have been drafted by a professional football team and to be invited by NASA to train for space travel". This for one relates to the main idea of the story, through hard work and determination Leland is able to do something that no one could ever achieve before. This affected me as a reader because i was able to understand from the story that Leland even though being different from everyone else he {or myself} can achieve anything.

He calmly seals the latches on his case. It was open, just a smidge . That crazy Niffler thing’s on the lose again, Er-it might be-, Then look for it! Look!” This quote is significant because it shows how newt by accident left his suit case open where all the magical beasts are, and the Nifflee escaped and is on the loose
Again. The story starts to get good after that this when Newt has to save all these magestic beats. This shows how this qoute in the book Fantastic Beats And Where To Find Them by Jk Rowling is significant.

She certainly doesn't stick out in my mind as a superior pupil, and isn't a superior verse. She was very quiet and I can't remember her ever raising her hand once in class. But something in this cried out.’” (p.74)This is significant because as seen in the text Carrie was really quite but her poem was about being alone. As you read on in the novel, it is seen that Carrie is indeed alone. She has no friends, everyone at her school makes fun of her and her mom locks her in the closet when she does the slightest thing bad. That is how that quote is significant to the novel Carrie by Stephen King.

In the novel The Drowned Boy by Karin Fossum, there is a quote that shows significance towards me. First off, two detectives are called over to a tragic site where a sixteen month old infant had drowned. These two men do not believe that he drowned. They personally feel as if it was an act of murder. However, in chapter eight Nicolai, the boys father has a deep moment. “ He sat at the end of the jetty and wept. He could barely resist the lure of the black water “. This quote was significant to me. It affected me as a reader because it showed me how much Nicolai loved his son. Even though, the detectives believe that the parents do not appreciate their son, this shows that Nicolai had a very gloomy love for his son. This made me think of a very sorrowful mood towards this book. I wouldn’t understand nor would I want to experience losing a son. I deeply feel bad for Nicolai. This book has been very interesting so far

Catch 22

By Joseph Heller

Page 37

In my independent reading book a man by the name of Yossarian fought in WWII but had to go into the hospital after injuring his liver. Now he is still in the hospital but lies about still hurting when he is not, just so he does not have to fight. In one part of the book, he compares himself to “the best bombardier” to himself. Yossarian is the only person who does not appreciate “the best bombardier” because he used to be the best. Yossarian had also the same job but “Yossarian was a lead bombardier who had been demoted because he no longer gave a damn whether he missed or not.” I thought this quote was significant because his team of fighter pilots also had this mentality, and I thought they would get punished more than they actually did.
