    Prisoner’s Rights

    I do not believe a prisoner should have rights anywhere near the same extent as a free citizen who has not committed crimes has. When a person commits a crime he gives up his rights. People have rights because they are believed to be responsible, honest, and trustworthy citizens. If they commit a crime they prove that they are not responsible, honest, trustworthy people. If these men and women have all these rights in

    Only a Life Lived in the Face of Death Can Be Significant or Meaningful’ and Answer the Question ’could a Creature That Was Incapable of Death Live a Meaningful Life?

    While it comprises part of this essay's subject, it should be noted that in no piece of literature by Albert Camus will you find a direct quote of him declaring that 'only a life lived in the face of death can be significant, or meaningful.' This is a paraphrased version of a passage found in his work the Myth of Sisyphus, which reads: 'There is but one truly serious philosophical problem and that is suicide.

    It would be a huge understatement to say that many things have changed when it comes to women’s rights, positions, and roles in our society today since the 19th century. Actually, very few similarities remain. Certain family values, such as specific aspects of domesticity and performance of family duties are amongst the only similarities still present. Victorian women had several hardships to overcome. Education, marriage, leisure, and travel amongst other things were limited and controlled.
