3. Saying most men fight for power.
4. " The coal black eyes of the suffering ant shone with a savage look that only happens in war." This quote shows transcendentalism by comparing the situation to the war.

1. Watching and describing a battle between two different "races" of ants, red and black.
2. "They fought with more determination than bull dogs do." 22
Comparing humans to ants.
3. His opinion on society is that everyone is always fighting and won't give up. "Conquer or die." 22
4. "It was obvious that their battle cry was conqueror die." Going above and beyond relates to transcendentalism because its out of the normal everyday life.]]> 2016-03-08 15:38:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99684016 https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99684103 1. the importance of living life the right way 
2. He talks about a well and that "if you look into it you see that the world is made out of islands" saying that there is more than what meets the eye
3.His intellegence tries once again to make life noble. This is important becuase, he is trying to  make his life great again. It exemplifies transcendentalism from sharing his thoughts on life]]> 2016-03-08 15:38:16 UTC https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99684103 https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99684220 1) He talks about a stream and how people travel through life differently 
2)¨My instinct tells me that my head is a tool for digging in the same way as some creatures use their snout and forepaws.¨ He is saying that his head is used to search for information just like how animals use there snout and paws for food. This is a metaphor
3) Men are distracted and that they have big dreams and cannot achieve them because they do not think through. We agree with him because we are kind of lazy people and if something seems like a little more work than usual, we just won't do it. 
4)¨I cannot count to one. I do not know the first letter of the alphabet . I regret that I am not as wise as the day I was born.¨ This quote says that the writer misses the time when he was more innocent and knew less, like when he was a child. This exemplifies transcendentalism by showing how living life can adjust and change the way you perceive the world and world events.  ]]> 2016-03-08 15:38:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99684220 https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99684439 1.  hes talking about where he lives and what it looks like.

ii) He is describing soldiers as ants.
iii) That they are always fighting. Yes i do agree because back then there used to be a lot of battles over land.
iv) "It wouldn't have surprised me to see a musical band from each side playing it's national anthems on a nearby wood chip in order to pump up the slower soldiers and cheer up the dying ones."]]> 2016-03-08 15:39:59 UTC https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99684755 https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99684841 1. He talks about how to get the most out of life. 

2. " Suck out all the marrow of life " - Take advantages of life

3. Most people waste their lives by making it over complicated. We agree, as when you over complicate yourself, you become immersed in said complications and cannot fully enjoy life.  

4. "I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach," - He's basically trying to find himself through nature and spiritualism. ]]> 2016-03-08 15:40:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99684841 https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99689838 1. Men and their daily life, peoples daily life and the way life is and the way that we live our life and how we choose to interpret it.

2.  Why do we hurry and waste our life we try to starve yourself before we are even hungry. Because humans are stubborn and ignorant.

3. That all men are mostly the same, we do the same things in different ways. 

4. ''Men say that a stitch in time saves nine and so they take a thousand stitches to save nine tomorrow.'' to help yourself to help so you dont have to do it a different day. ]]> 2016-03-08 15:52:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jarrin_william2/ke86a3k36he6/wish/99689838
