    Dawnwriter wrote a new post, The Tragedy of Child Heatstroke Deaths in Cars 8 years, 1 month ago

    It can take only a few moments of carelessness for a catastrophic tragedy to occur and this statement is especially true in case of young children dying of heatstroke after being left in a hot car for an extended […]

    • Leave a kid in car all alone and go for some shopping. What a terrible thing it would be! I just can’t imagine this as it is disturbing me. It is the extreme of carelessness and must be avoided at any cost to ensure the safety of these little souls. May God keep every kid safe and sound.

    • You are right. It is becoming very common to forget kids in a car and involve in some other activity.

    Dawnwriter replied to the topic Do you like Horror Films? in the forum Group logo of MoviesMovies 8 years, 1 month ago

    I wouldn’t watch a horror movie even if I am getting paid to do so. I hate horror movies especially those which show dolls and children possessed by demons.

    The images stay with me for a long time. I watch very little TV and few movies so I am very careful and choosy when it comes to watching something on screen.

    Dawnwriter wrote a new post, Great Opening Lines of Great Novels 8 years, 1 month ago

    Great opening lines are very important for any work of literature. Whether you are writing a novel, a short story, a blog post or a newspaper article, a great opening line will make sure that your reader stays […]

    • I know almost all of those you have quoted… also remember; “Scarlett O’Hara was not beautiful but few men noticed when caught by her charm.”

      “The Third Camel died at dawn.”

      • Yes. They are all great people. I think you are having some knowledge in Literature. But I am not. So the only thing I can do is just to appreciate the good writers and persons having good taste in literature. Thank you.

    • Opening lines are very not only in the writing of novels but also on academic works. I remember the days when I was to write my final year project my supervisor made me realized that my abstract must capture it all. That it must summarize the whole section of my project works. To put it shortly quality of opening lines cannot be overemphasized.

      • My Masters were asking us to write the project report. They were taking them to their houses and were making corrections. They were giving instructions in pen so that a student can remember the things well.

    • All great authors know how important an opening line is to grab the reader’s attention and instantly connect with them. But there is no opening line ever written that will ever be better than the one penned by Charles Dickens to introduce the reader to “A Tale Of Two Cities.” 🙂

      • I don’t think they are all necessary nowadays. People do not bother about the great opening and great closure. They want essence. They want information but not transformation. The transformation is already taking place and will take place without any effort. So they concentrate more on information.

    • yes. Those are great lines.

    • Yes. These opening lines and closing lines are meant for those who used to sit comfortably after their lunch and dinner in the open air. They need have to worry about their comforts not at all. They were thinking and knitting their words. I do not think they were doing that also. I can say that they wrote for their next generations. Who taught them about these closings and openings? No one I think.

    • This one fits Stephen King’s definition of great opening line: “Listen. Come in here. You want to know about this.”

    • Some very great quotes indeed!

    I was reading a very interesting article recently.

    It stated that when the ancient Chinese people built the Great Wall of China, they thought they would be safe from attackers and foreign invasion and yet they […]

    • ah…..The position is aptly applicable to almost all countries in the world including India as it is my concern being an Indian. Totally worst…I do not get words. Better I do not comment on the subject more and it will be right and good for my health.

      Otherwise, where from the political leaders of the world get so much of money in their foreign accounts. It is against which the Panama Papers worked on . If the names of leaders and other rich people of U.S have not found their place in the leaked out list it does not mean that they are pious and sacred people on the Earth.

      I really wonder how the two candidates in the U.S Presidential elections are assuring people of good roads, unemployment, health provisions, and assurances on the women’s’ problem made me think that the U.S is not as developed yet as they projected themselves to the world.

    • There are many people who want power just to have it. They are inferior people. They have no morality no real interest. They want what they can get.

    • I agree. In most nations where the citizens are suffering, it’s not the result of an attack from the outside, but corruption from the inside. The weakening from within is what makes the nation vulnerable to an outside enemy attack. It happens over and over. But folks don’t learn the lesson and/or ignore and talk themselves into believing “That will never ever happen to us!” But it happens!
