Sherlock Holmes cgraham2337 https://padlet.com/cgraham2337/2xt28ibfuuqg/wish/210474534 Holmes embodies the characteristics of self-reliance as he totally relies on his wits and devious detective skills to resolve any quarrel he is in. he understands that every resolve will be best suited by his own method and understands how, "no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given to him to till." Holmes, "...would be a man must be a nonconformist. He who would gather immortal palms must not be hindered by the name of goodness..." this quote is a parallel to his unusual detective methods and problem solving skills totally derived from his intellectual mind.]]> 2017-11-27 15:57:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cgraham2337/2xt28ibfuuqg/wish/210474534 2. "Drop the World" (feat. Eminem) by: Lil' Wayne cgraham2337 https://padlet.com/cgraham2337/2xt28ibfuuqg/wish/210486195 I know what they don't wanna tell you
Just hope you're heaven-sent, and you're hell-proof
I walk up in the world and cut the lights off
And confidence is a stain they can't wipe off
My word is my pride
But wisdom is bleak, and that's a word from the wise
Served to survive, murdered and bribed
And when it got too heavy, I put my burdens aside]]> 2017-11-27 16:13:12 UTC https://padlet.com/cgraham2337/2xt28ibfuuqg/wish/210486195 3.

"Else, if you would be a man, speak what you think today in words as hard as cannon balls, and tomorrow speak what tomorrow thinks in hard words again, though it contradict every thing you said today." cgraham2337 https://padlet.com/cgraham2337/2xt28ibfuuqg/wish/210493328 2017-11-27 16:23:23 UTC https://padlet.com/cgraham2337/2xt28ibfuuqg/wish/210493328 5. cgraham2337 https://padlet.com/cgraham2337/2xt28ibfuuqg/wish/210496613 Yes, it may be near impossible to achieve, but it sure is a very favorable scenario for humanity. That society would be thriving as everyone would not blame anyone for a particular problem but only rely on themselves to achieve a perfect society. The individual would want to better themselves, thus creating a foundation where no one would hold progress back. There would be obstacles such as certain individuals who wouldn't have the drive to better themselves and to be totally reliant on society. While no one will continue to help them, the coming generations would be rid of any who impose that mindset upon themselves and leave the world with independent individuals working twords this sort of perfect Utopia.]]> 2017-11-27 16:27:48 UTC https://padlet.com/cgraham2337/2xt28ibfuuqg/wish/210496613
