hello esha\n\n i did this thing .... JULIUS CEASER\nlast year itself in grade 10\nnyways \nfor brutus' speech:\n\n~*~ Brutus being idealistic, talks about ideals of democracy, liberty and makes the plesbians( common people) realise that assasination of Julius was in their favor as otherwise i.e if Julius was to live then all of the common people wud have to die ( read suffer) as Julius was ambitious and wanted to be a dictator\n\n~*~ since Brutus  had talked about ideals , his speech did affect the crowd but they were not really moved by his speech as to them survival and the basic necessities of life  were much more important than justice, liberty and fraternity.\n\nfor MARK ANTONY'S speech :\n\n~*~ Antony was a matster of the theatrical and used his rhetoric skills to the maximum\n~*~ the crowd was swayed by his obviouly swayed by his obvious sorrow for his friend's death\n~*~ antony appealed to the baser passion of the plesbians i.e money ( by telling them about the money and property left for them by ceaser ) ... thus the Roman commoners were more affected as they were the ones who wud have been benefitted by Ceaser's rule\n~*~ also antony's constant repetion of the words " brutus says he was ambitious and brutus is an honorable man " helps him not only to counter (or prove wrong ) each of brutus' arguments but also help him to question brutus' honor by merely drawing so much attention to it\n\n\nhope this helps .... and hope you appreciate the fact that i have ritten it all down my self!!!

I think the Britain of Churchill's era was pretty great.  What I don't understand is how the brave and amazing people of the UK can roll over and let themselves be trampled by political correctness and blatantly hostile cultures taking root in their very midst.  I love my cousins across the pond, but I fear for your future.

Churchill was the greatest, but he did more than save the UK, he stood up to Hitler and saved Europe and the rest of the world from descending into fascism. Churchill had the courage, optimism and just plain bullheadedness to ignore Hitler's bluster. And the world is so much better today because of it. Think what would've happened if Hitler had won WW2. I don't think any of us want to go there.

Interesting query. Our prime minister, Winston Churchill, and your President Roosevelt had a few things in common. Roosevelt was born in New York. Churchills grandfather (Leonard Jerome) was also born there. \nThey shared some aspirations for the future of their countries, and they both played a substantial role in the creation of the welfare state that has become the nanny state. I hasten to add I can only comment on the british benefits system regarding the nanny state.\n\nWinston Churchill procrastinated a great deal whereas Roosevelt was a little more concise and to the point. Take these two quotes for example -\n\nChurchill: 'Every day you may make progress. Every step may be fruitful. Yet there will stretch out before you an ever-ascending, ever-improving path. You know you will never get to the end ofthe journey. But this, sofar from discouraging, only adds to the joy and glory of the climb'\n\nRoosevelt: 'It is common sense to take a method and try it: if it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.\n\nAnd -\n\nChurchill: It's not enough that we do our best; sometimes we have to do what's required.\n\nRoosevelt: Be sincere; be brief; be seated.\n\nI have digressed from your question however. On the whole I don'r agree with Churchill's statement, at least not if it is applied to today's society. It nay have been more fitting during the war when America was drawn closer (perhaps reluctantly) to Europe and a certain comradeship was a way of life. Sometimes a little more than comradeship between the G.I's and our land girls!!\nI feel that the main difference between our homelands is our pride in our respective coumtries and the reasons for it.\nI don't feel proud to be british any more. The days of 'pulling together' are long gone. It's 'all for one and one for all' nowadays. There has been a mass migration going on in the UK for a few years. Anyone that is selling a property is moving out to France, Spain, etc. The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. There are people being murdered in villages for a few pence from their purses. Yob culture rules and teenagers with hoods are to be avoided. Sure, this kind of behaviour has always gone on, but mainly prevalent in big towns in the past. \nOur taxes are crippling. People who've worked hard all their lives are living well below the poverty line. They have saved for their pension only to be told that it doesn't exist. And as I mentioned earlier, too many citizens sit back and accept the ample hand-outs the government provides in exchange for votes.\n\nBritain has also lost it's sense of humour.To quote Roosevelt again -\n\n'I sometimes think that the saving grace of America lies in the fact that the overwhelming majority of Americans are possessed of two great qualities - a sense of humour and a sense of proportion'\n\nI cannot comment on the differences in the American way of life as I've not lived there but I get the feeling you're all still proud of your origins and wouldn't swap your nationality for all the tea in China. I'd like to hear your views on that.\n\nWhen I joined the march in London against the war I saw an amusing placard being held up by a young girl proclaiming 'The only Bush I trust is my own. That tickled me but also reminded we're probably not the only country with a corrupt government. \n\nI feel there will always be a bond between the States and the United Kingdom - I hope so. But I also feel that America looks after it's countrymenin a more constructive way than our government. You are encouraged to study, work, and save towqrds a better future. And if you live your life that way you get results. We don't.\n\nThat said, I will finish on a quote by Franklin D. Roosevelt in a letter to Winston Churchill.\n\n'It is fun to be in the same decade with you'\n\nAh. comradeship!

George Washington said something similar to that in his Farewell Address.  Just Google "George Washington Farewell Address" and you should find it.

"It's a piece of laboratory equipment," Tom retorted.\n"I'm not a crook," said Nixon resignedly.\n"I want you in the Royal Navy," Tom said impressively.\n"I'm on welfare," said Tom dolefully.\n"I love Voltaire," Tom admitted candidly.\n"My Mama is German," Tom muttered.\n"I have to keep this fire lit!" Tom bellowed.\n"This is mutiny!" Tom said bountifully.\n"Ici nous voyons le tour Eiffel," Tom parried.\n"3.14159265," Tom enumerated piously.\n"What are those berries?" Tom rasped.\n"We're sailing near the Isle of Wight," Tom said insolently.

I think it is fairly obvious that there is a battle raging and it is for the minds of humanity. I think it was Winston Churchill who said that there was a great purpose being worked out here below. All these expereinces and happenings are not just some sort of blind chance happenings. Like every thing else........time will tell.

I think an interesting comparison - in the spirit of Hitler vs. Saddam; would be comparing Neville Chamberlain and Bill Clinton. \n\nChamberlain was the English Prime Minister before Churchhill in WW2, who proclaimed "peace in our time" when he negotiated with Hitler - right before Hitler invaded Poland. He was trying to appease Hitler - believing that they would be able to "talk out" germany's aggression. \n\nClinton - much in the same spirit - tried to take the same approach to the middle east and Saddam Hussein after the Gulf War. \n\nNeither approach was ultimately successful, and ended up costing more war and ending more lives in the end.
