Man is the only animal

“The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right place but to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.” – Dorothy Nevill

 

“Man is the only animal that blushes. Or needs to.” – Mark Twain

 

Directions: Write a well-developed essay in which you (1) explain the meaning of each quote briefly, (2) argue the relationship of the two quotes in relation to modern day, drawing on observations of society, social media and previously-read materials, and (3) discuss the extent to which the reality expressed by the quotes is accurate or not.

You are NOT to write in singular first-person. Please write approximately 750 words. Make sure you proofread, too.

Remember the Six Elements, in terms of your structure and organization as the grading rubric in this course!
