“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The most important things is not to stop questioning”
-Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein was a very intelligent man. He was a physicist and a philosopher. He is greatly known for coming up with the Theory of relatively, which is highly important in physics today. He is also known for his famous quotes. One that I practically like is the one above. This quote can be interpreted in many different ways , depending on the perception of the person reading it.
This quote is a message to every human being on the planet. My interpretation of the quote is, we as humans make mistakes, and we learn from them. We should try not to make the same mistake the second time around, and continue with life no matter what obstacles or thoughts we may have. Even though, we continue we should hope for tomorrow, because we never known when our time is up. But never stop questioning of what can and will happen in life. My second interpretation is, life is a reason of hope so enjoy life and do not question for hope is always there. No matter what people have come across in life there is still a reason to keep pushing and keep moving forward and never to give up on life or you will never follow through and be left behind.
Albert Einstein uses stylistic arenas to communicate with his audience the message and meaning of the quote. He used the stylistic social arena area to choose the audience he wanted to get his message across. Albert used simple words that are colloquial instead of higher educated (SAT) type of words to connect with his audience. He wanted everyone to understand and relate to quote. No matter if they are in a higher class society or lower class he used words that everyone can understand and relate too.
Also, he used the textual arena in an orderly fashion. By using “yesterday, today and tomorrow” which are interrupted as past present and future meanings gives the audience a sense of order in which life is and how we can prosper and continue with life no matter what we have had to encounter in the pass or will encounter. It’s the rules of life in the Albert Einstein’s words.
The uses motives on language which he used to really explain his quote really grabbed my attention. He uses the it is not x; but y theory in the following example,“the most important thing…”. By using that part he is implying to the reader that is the “Y” of the quote.It’s what sums up everything and should be focused on more. That all these parts (X) are intertwined with each other to have an outcome which is (Y).
Albert used this quote to come across a common ground of how life is and how we are as human being. No matter where we come from we all have hope and want to keep living.This quote is intended for a universal audience.

I think your analytic response was great. Very good introduction at the beginning. For people who do not know Albert Einstein as much, they might not be used to his writing style. But you did a nice job introducing as well as transitioning to the quote analysis when you said “One… is above.” You divided your analysis into several distinct paragraphs, which is great and helps to separate ideas. However, your second paragraph, “this…behind”, is longer than any other paragraphs. Please keep in mind that this is a stylistic analysis, not a content analysis. I know it helps you to bring up your next paragraph but this length is better shorter than longer so the focus will not be on the content. Besides that it was easy to follow and understand, great job!
