How are civil rights and civil liberties different?

My answer is that you can do anything as long as it doesn't hurt anyone on a large scale. I say "on a large scale" because it is almost impossible to do anything without hurting someone else. When we drive to work we hurt people. First of all we pollute the air for people that have asthma. We also worsen the plight of ulcer patients that get nervous in traffic and thus produce more acid in their stomachs. We also put pets in danger. Many cats and dogs, probably in the the tens of millions, are killed by cars. The question is, does the benefit outweigh the negative effects? Yes, because without the vehicle our life expectancies would go down, and I don't have the time to go into why this would happen (might have something to do with not being able to get food into the cities in time for the masses to eat it.) Because marijuana is the big issue right now I will discuss this. Smoke, smoke, smoke....to your hearts content. The marijuana issue is one of the biggest debates right now because people have begun to think. And where does the rabbit hole of thinking lead us to? It leads to a very normal man or women sitting at home smoking a bowl, while the drunks are downtown picking fights at the bars and killing people in car wrecks on the way home. These same people are driving up health costs by their health problems that they will inevitibly incur. Meanwhile, the pot smoker sits at home, laughing and talking with friends, too relaxed to fight and too mellow to look for his car keys. In all my years of life I have still not seen two pot smokers fighting and also very few auto accidents. And these are usually fender benders cause pot-smokers usually drive well under the speed limit, which is more than I can say for drinkers. I know why the government doesn't want pot-smokers. Cause it makes you think. The spectrum of truth and lies is placed before your intelligence. You are able to make decisions based on love and fairnes. But we don't want that in America. It was tried before and the system began to unravel. Where marijuana is, organized religion breaks down, and the unfairness of governments is exposed, something the Indains know about. We don't want that in the USA.

What are examples of metaphors in the prologue of romeo and Juliet?

"Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean" The use of "hands" here is of course a synecdoche. "Blood" is used as a metaphor for guilt. "Bury their parents' strife" Burying is a metaphor for disposing of anything, even a disagreement.

Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean?

"Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean" is the fourth line of the prologue to Romeo and Juliet. It means that even if the people of Verona were civil, their constant feuding and bloodshed would dirty them.


What does 'Civil blood' mean in Romeo and Juliet?

"Two households, both alike in dignity In fair Verona where we lay our scene, From ancient grudge break to new mutiny Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean." The word "civil" means "from the city" (Latin civitate), as in "civil servant". It can also mean polite or well-behaved, as "keep a civil tongue in your head." Using the first meaning, the phrase is quite literal, where the blood of the city (or rather the blood of the people of the city) makes their hands dirty. But there is also a play on the second meaning, so that the phrase can also be taken to mean, where the blood of the people of the city makes their well-behaved hands dirty--in other words, their good behaviour is tarnished with their blood.

Who insults Romeo and Juliet's family?

I don't know whether we can answer this one, because it is not clear what family you are talking about. Since Romeo and Juliet are married, they both belonged to both the Capulets and Montagues. So who insults both? Mercutio, when he says "A plague on both your houses." The prince, too, says "See what a scourge is laid upon your hate that heaven finds means to kill your joys with love" which is admonishment to both families. The chorus, too, insults them when he says "civil blood makes civil hands unclean."


What are the meanings of the quotes in romeo and juilet?

Do you mean "Two households, both alike in dignity, in fair Verona where we lay our scene, from ancient grudge break to new mutiny where civil blood makes civil hands unclean."? The key to the sentence is "Two households . . . from ancient grudge break to new mutiny." The two households are two families who have an "ancient grudge". Ancient means old, right? So they break out in a new "mutiny"--a new breach of the peace. The rest is all trimming. We learn that the two families are "alike in dignity"--they have the same social status. They are in Verona, which is where "we lay our scene", or where the scene is set. The mutiny is making hands dirty with blood, and there is a play on the word civil, which means both "of the city" and "polite".


Both hands go to sleep while sleeping?

This usually indicates that a person is lying on his hands. After a while, the reduced blood flowing to the hands makes them feel numb.
