Favorite Sentence

My favorite sentence was indeed in the last portion Chapter of Hawai`i's Story by Hawai`i's Queen, when the queen quoted Shakespear in saying "It is excellent to have a giant's strength, but it is tyrannous to use it like a giant." This was my favorite sentence because I felt that the metaphor left alot of room for a reader to thing, as she was speaking about how the press is a giant and has immense and huge power in America. America was beating Hawaii over the head their their press at this time, even going as far as to tell lies about how Hawaii wanted this annexation. In this case they were acting like a giant or a bully in other words.
