To fraud, or not to fraud?

 

William Shakespeare. A man who has risen from the slums to succes. He who commands the written word with grace like a sword. A worldly gentlemen who helps us experience the daunting challenges and fates his characters experiance. However there has been much recent debate. For such a modest background, is Shakespeare really who he said he is? Is his plays to accurate to be words of a commoner? The debate that has been racing through our country, invading our homes is that very question.

I believe that these accusations are false, all of you should stand with me. Those who doubt the integrity to Shakespeare's words doubt the ability of the common folk. They would rather be life that a noblemen was pulling the strings than be live that a commoner could be so prolific. Let me tell you that their wrong. The two people that the doubters believe may be the true Shakespeare is Francis Bacon and Edward de Vere. 

They also believe that Shakespeare supposedly wrote too many plays than possible during his lifetime. How can anyone put a limit to how much a person can write? Does this mean that only a nobleman could so much work during a lifetime? I'll let you decide, but you know my opinion. 

The last thing that many protesters believe in is that many of Shakespearian quotes and passages have secret messages that allude to his true identity. However consider the sheer amount of works he has written. Thirty-seven plays, 5 poems, and 157 sonnets. There are enough words to create any phrase people want. 

Today I tell you about Shakespeare, an incredible man. Don't just listen to those noblemen who believe that commoners are nothing but dirt under their boots. Choose to believe in the commoners and noblemen. Their ability to all have taken and achieve greatness. Believe in William Shakespeare.

Picture This

This picture is symbolic of strength vs. smarts. While this conflict is tried and true it can still be seen in every school, job, and activity around the nation. The flexing muscles are strength and the brain is intelligence. While brute strength is, strong, intelligence is always greater.

“I had uncreated life. I felt euphoric. I felt like the God of destruction. Momentarily I felt invincible"(McCauley, 1101)

The main conflict in my memoir is the strong versus the weak. Throughout the book Gary has been abused and taken advantage of by many people. He arrived to get stronger, but his stature was never on his side. When he became an adult, he was away from the people who hurt him but the damage was done and he had to prove he was strong. He used his intelligence to corner, outwit, trap and eventually kill people. When he does kill he feels invincible. The quote above shows this because that is what he feels when he kill. It makes feel strong.
