Furthermore, the next angle of perfection to be analyzed is slightly more personal as it deals with perfection in oneself and not our thoughts, philosophies, and ideologies. Taking perfection in terms of the perfect person can be considered as a difficult topic to approach as different people may have different views of what the perfect person should be. For example, there have been distinctions made between what Germany led by Hitler during the Second World War and what colonial powers such as Britain
that compares an essence to a property. Gassendi also finds issue when Descartes argues that existence is a perfection in regards to God, but not in regards to a triangle. He believes that it is as much of a perfection of God as it is of a triangle, and in fact claims that existence is a perfection of neither God nor anything. His reasoning for this is that without existence no perfections would be present in anything, because the thing simply would not
Everyone has read at least one classic in their life, but what does that mean? The word classic can be portrayed in so many ways. It all depends on the person, what they read and are interested in. The direct definition of classic is “a work of art of recognized and established value.” Literature can be seen as words to the naked eye.

Orman lays out for us in a summed up version is that you cannot go into a speech believing all of them will be stressful, because that is a misconstrued thought. You don’t have to be the product of perfection or the Einstein of this speech to be successful nor do you have to sandwich every bit of information you can about your subject into the speech as if you were reading from an encyclopedia.

Georgiana’s husband, Alymer, is obsessed with perfection for his wife, a goal that is not worth conquering. Our society is always working towards the obsession of physical perfection while trying to twist nature by going to the extreme of procedures, surgeries, etc. Perfection doesn’t exist on planet Earth, but Alymer is convinced that without the hand shaped spot on her cheek, she will be the leading definition of perfect.

“Perfection is annihilation, it paralyzes us from working from the heart. Humans by nature are not perfect and imperfections are what make the world beautiful.” -Anonymous Perfectionism is strongly prevalent in all of the works of Ali Noel; “The Squibs,” “The Squiggle Game,” and “Trippin’ Through the Forest.” In all three of these texts there is either direct proof or a hidden reference to striving for excellence, but also the sense of not wanting to leave behind comfort and familiarity.

"Sonnet 130" Imagine Romeo telling Juliet that her breath smells horrible and she had stringy hair. It certainly does not seem very romantic or at all polite but this is exactly what William Shakespeare does in Sonnet 130, “My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun.” While Shakespeare’s satirical intent is present, “My mistress’ eyes are nothing like the sun” is a sonnet that emphasizes the importance of finding beauty in the imperfect, or more literally, finding beauty in the human form.

America is a culture defined by physical beauty and perfection. Society presents irrepressible standards on women in the United States in terms of beauty and perfection. When turning the television, flipping through magazines, surfing the web, or scrolling through social media you are immediately surrounded by this “perfect" image that society has set as an acceptable standard for women. The problem with this is that children look up to the people that they see on TV, in movies, magazines, and on
