LISA : The Scarlet Letter, Hester Prynne is shunned by her community because she has an affair and a child out of wedlock. It shows that her community is hypocritical because they act all righteous and moral, but they have no compassion for her ERNESTO I don't think I agreeI think they're just acting according to the morality of their religion, which says that you have to conform , and she doesn't there's no place for her. Those are the rules NINA What's kind of funny is that because there is no place for her, and she's cast out, she really starts thinking for herself . She becomes a kind of philosopher VIVIAN Right In way the fact that they ve shunned her because she doesn't conform means she has less reason to be part of their community .

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
