... actually help the poor as well as the nation. The narrator then does something that I think set the tone for the rest of the story. He referred to a baby just born as being dropped from its dam.

We are told how the children are a burden and how instead of requiring food and clothing the rest of their lives, they will contribute to the feeding and clothing of many people. Any intelligent person would assume he intends to put them in factories or farms to work and not be on the streets begging for fo ...

... and have errors. Being organized is crucial to a program. Coming prepared each day with lesson plans, studying and breaking down game films, installing progressive drills, etc. need to be planned in advanced to effectively manage time limitations and productivity. Hard work is very important to me. I feel there is a link between hard work and playing with heart. I stand by the saying "It is not the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog." How we practice during the week is how we'll play in the game; therefore, I will not accept sloppy practice sessions. My philosophy as a teacher ...

... was in their times when Robert De Bruce betrayed him you could tell that he was devastated. I think that we also learned that if you truly believed in something you wouldn't change what you think no matter what they would do. I think that Wallace's beliefs were worth fighting and dying for because why should you have to be oppressed be a king that would take your things and rule you cruelly. Without their own king Scotland would just be a meaningless province that is guarded by soldiers at all times. Why should you live in constant fear when you can have freedom and live in relative peace and you don't have to ...

... as I so often do when I finish a book that I want to go on forever. This is infinitely more difficult with a book that has no conclusion, and FTA leaves a reader not only emotionally exhausted but also just as alone as Henry and with nowhere to go. The entire work was aware of where it was going and what was going to happen next, and then to stop the way it did was unfair.
