A quotation is the repetition of a sentence, phrase, or passage from speech or text that someone has said or written.

In oral speech, it is the representation of an utterance that is introduced by a quotative marker, such as a verb of saying.

The quotation clearly states that both the object and the narrator are on opposite sides of a window, which lies between them.

Bring on the Beets

This is a draft of a student's narrative essay.

My dad used to say there aren't really foods he doesn't like, just foods he hasn't liked yet. I'm inclined to agree with him because there's a clear line of demarcation in my life: days of beet disdain and beet delight.

Have you ever had a yellow beet? Me neither, until an innocent visit to Atwoods Café on an otherwise ordinary day. The lunch crowd buzzed as I sat at a table for two near the door, surveying the menu until I landed on a list of appetizing ingredients: Bibb lettuce, asparagus, goat cheese, pistachios, and . . . yellow beets with a lemon dill vinaigrette. Dressing on the side and hold the beets. That was my first inclination.

"What can I get for you today?" my server asked.

"I'd like your Bibb lettuce salad with dressing on side and no beets, please," I replied.

"Have you ever had yellow beets?" my server inquired, peering over the rim of his glasses like my dad.

"Actually, no," I replied sheepishly. "It's a texture thing—they seem so slimy."

"Ours are delicious. Give them a try and, if you don't like them, I'll bring you a beet-free salad." And he was off before I could object.

Let me tell you, yellow beets are beautiful! They're a vibrant, golden yellow that brightens a plate like sunshine. I'm no culinary expert, but when food looks good, it tastes better, right? These yellow beets sure did. They were smooth, not slimy, and mildly sweet, not so earthy, though they grew to fullness underground. This was my moment of conversion. My delight in yellow beets extended beyond the walls of Atwoods as I sought this delicious root vegetable on other menus, in recipes, and at farmer's markets.

I have learned there really aren't foods I don't like, just foods that I haven't liked yet and, who knows? Maybe I'll give bananas a second chance.

How does the excerpt reflect rand’s philosophy of objectivism? it reinforces the concept that man’s responsibility is to create his own reality. it supports the idea that man is truly in control of his own thoughts and actions. it supports the belief that man is controlled by the environment and society. it reinforces the notion that man views himself based on how others view him.

Fear

Meryl Turner, an eighth grader at Ashmore Middle School, was furious when her mother, Sandra, enrolled her for swimming classes without her permission.
She shrieked, "Mom, why would you do something like this? You know how uncomfortable I am in water!"
Sandra calmly replied, "Darling, don't you think it's time you tried to let go of this fear? I used to be afraid of trying out new things, but once I let go of my doubts, I saw how silly my fears were. Please do this for me, Meryl!"
Meryl respected her mother, so she took a few moments to ponder over Sandra's words. Then she said, "OK, Mom. I'm ready to take swimming lessons."
At first, it was difficult for Meryl to get the hang of swimming. While she did OK in the shallow end of the pool, she could not find the courage to go into the deep end. Luckily for Meryl, her instructor Harry was kind and patient, and gave her sufficient time to get accustomed to every area of the pool.
Once she was comfortable in deep water, Harry coached Meryl for two hours every day until she had perfected the basic strokes. After about four months of regular practice, swimming had become Meryl's favorite hobby, and Harry was delighted that their hard work had paid off. That fall, Meryl even made it onto her school's swim team!
One evening, Meryl said, "Mom, you were right to push me to meet new challenges. If I had not listened to you, I would never have made the swim team. From now on, I'm going to use the valuable advice you gave me whenever I'm up against something that scares me."
"I'm so proud of you, Meryl!" Sandra exclaimed as she hugged her daughter.

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all,
And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.
I've heard it in the chillest land,
And on the strangest sea:
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.

Emily Dickinson
