This exposition impractically catches the pith of New York City much superior to anything I will ever have the capacity to. As a Californian, I view New York as I envision a New Yorker in the Nineteenth Century would view California. The contemplation is practically outlandish. California is the boundlessness edged pool of a landmass. Its wide open meanders perpetually, forever of the open doors which it holds until the land drops into nothingness and the Pacific devours it.

New York then again, shouldn't exist. Many think of it as the zenith of human accomplishment, a mixture of humankind existing together with an enthusiastic feeling of a club, all living under the standard held high that drains, "New York." It is where ten million drums play to their own beat, yet all ring to a similar congruity.

Didion's involvement in the city echoes these tones. The city is undoubtedly a spot where a half year can transform into eight years, and a night out can transform into a marriage. Didion expressed, "It was an unendingly sentimental idea, the puzzling nexus of all affection and cash and power, the sparkling and short-lived dream itself."

This exposition goes about as Didion's adoration letter to the city, one that isn't composed starting with one captivated sweetheart then onto the next, yet rather as Socrates would keep in touch with Zeus in an incredible miracle of his god-like power. Didion sees New York as legendary Fate, culling and cutting the strings of life which would decide her way of presence. Didion drives home the thought that New York is a thought. It represents something. New York is synonymous with America.

Opportunity. Renewed opportunities. Acts of futility. It is the New Mesopotamia, the support of life held in its bin by the two streams which give it its separated liveliness. American contemporary articles endeavor to restore the sentimental nature which used to drive American writers like Whitman and Thoreau to compose, and she completes a magnificent activity of that. My inquiry is how does Didion's association with the city influence her life?

what the other guy said is right

anne started to write her events in her journal everyday considering it someone would find it .

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
