I'm writing a english paper on To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee. (It's a awesome book!) and the assignment is a critical len essay... so i need to interpret this quote: "The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in movement of comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” - Martin Luter King Jr.

Don't get me wrong, I understand the quote, but I don't know how to express them onto my paper. So help me out, in your own words... can you explain the quote? (WITHOUT USING THE WORDS IN THE QUOTE) :]

Much appreciation!

given it is the ancestor of modern missiles / high flying things, travelling at supersonic speed, hitting long-range targest in a matter of seconds, mass-produced and used only in the end of the war.
if possible, compare it to the atomic bomb's usage in wwii.
thank you.

What exactly is this poem about? I know it sounds stupid, but is the person in the poem who's asking to hear about the forest and the river and everything dying, or do they just leave her at the end?

I'm doing a project on the Res Gestae, and one of the questions asks if there are any contemporary examples of similar documents. By contemporary, I mean similar documents that were created at about the same time, not "contemporary" in the sense that it has modern counterparts.

I...am not coming up with anything, and Google has failed me. I asked this question in a less specific form and someone replied that it reads like a resume -- and it does, but I don't need modern comparisons, I need historical ones that are more or less contemporaneous with the Res Gestae. Any ideas?

How does Van Gogh suggest 3 dimensional space in his original "Postman Joseph Roulin" (1888)? I'm honestly confused by what this means and I know he is sitting on a chair, resting his arm on a green table next to him but I am not sure if that explains this question about the picture. Can anyone please help? Thank You

Do u think that any situation u can come up with that is possible even by the tiniest amount since there are so many people on this world has already happened or is happening. example i can say somewhere in this world someone is kissing at this moment adn after that moment and so on, undoubtly must be true to me at least, so can i say that somewhere in this world someone lets say threw a penyy at the wall and it hit him in the eye or something very rare ?

And besides that do u think anything there is to be done, is done ,every second by someone on this planet? like drinking, having sex which are real common and likely to rare things like running from cops or etc
