The 'Always' and 'Never' Life of Sylvia Plath - Karen Swallow Prior. "If neurotic is wanting two mutually exclusive things at one and the same time," she wrote in The Bell Jar, "then I'm neurotic as hell.

The Thirty-Six Dramatic Situations. The Thirty-Six Dramatic Situations is a descriptive list which was created by Georges Polti to categorize every dramatic situation that might occur in a story or performance.
To do this Polti analyzed classical Greek texts, plus classical and contemporaneous French works. He also analyzed a handful of non-French authors. In his introduction, Polti claims to be continuing the work of Carlo Gozzi, who also identified 36 situations. Publication history[edit] “Gozzi maintained that there can be but thirty-six tragic situations. This list was published in a book of the same name, which contains extended explanations and examples. The list is popularized as an aid for writers, but it is also used by dramatists, storytellers and many others. The 36 situations[edit] Each situation is stated, then followed by the necessary elements for each situation and a brief description.

Damaged people are dangerous because they know how to survive,And if you've never been damaged you don't know how it feels to be alive,See struggle is the sauce that gives success its flavour,when life kicked you down it was doing you a favour.
Cos it's in your darkest hour, not in prosperitythat you will realise your true ability.Life dunks you in deep waters not to drown you but to cleanse you.And that's just the beginning of what it will put you through.But it's chiselling you down, you won't deflate.It's not wearing you thin, it's getting you to your fighting weight.Prosperity makes monsters, adversity makes men.I believe when you reach the top life will yank you back down again. You didn't break down, you just had a flat tyreso get back up and relight that fire.keep it burning and churning at the pit of your heartand keep on learning and yearning and never fall apart.
