When Curtis transferred to our high school from some fancy private school,
I was assigned the job of showing him around our building. First, I showed
him our trophy case. Our school has put together some quality teams and
programs over the years, so our trophy case was pretty full. Curtis was not
impressed. He claimed that the trophy case was at least twice as big as
ours and much more crowded. Next I showed him our swimming pool. Not
every high school has a swimming pool, so we were proud of ours, but
Curtis couldn't care less. "The swimming pool at my old school is bigger
and more modern. This one looks kind of dirty," he said with disdain. I
continued to guide Curtis around the school, showing him our cafeteria,
gymnasium, and even our garden, but Curtis seemed disappointed with
everything that he saw. He'd quickly compare it to his old school, which in
his words was superior to ours in every way. The last thing I showed Curtis was the front door. I told him that he would like this one best because he could walk through it and go back to his old school. What is the theme of the story?

In a 10-12 sentence response-style paragraph, explore the degree to which you agree or disagree with faulkner’s message. “i believe that man will not merely endure: he will prevail. he is immortal, not because he alone among creatures has an inexhaustible voice, but because he has a soul, a spirit capable of compassion and sacrifice and endurance. the poet's, the writer's, duty is to write about these things. it is his privilege to man endure by lifting his heart, by reminding him of the courage and honor and hope and pride and compassion and pity and sacrifice which have been the glory of his past. the poet's voice need not merely be the record of man, it can be one of the props, the pillars to him endure and prevail” (faulkner 773-775).
