4. What does Mr. Brocklehurst’s analogy between the ill-prepared breakfast and the “sufferings of the primitive Christians…the torments of martyrs…the exhortations of our blessed Lord Himself” reveal about his character? How does this attitude contrast with that of Miss Temple to reveal the author’s social message?  Mr. Brocklehurst's analogy reveals his religious hypocrisy and his abuse of power. Mr. Brocklehurst gets upset over the extra lunch that the girls were served after their breakfast was ruined. He tells Miss Temple that they should not be compensated for the lost meal but rather they should endure that small privation like good Christians. He references several biblical passages to further his point of feeding their soul. The hypocrisy in his message is that a person of his high class is not likely to miss a meal yet he tells Miss Temple that these girls must do so to spiritually edify themselves.

Mr. Whipple, Toilet Paper Salesman I have been addressed by all of these nicknames and yes, I have heard of Whipple's Disease, I have seen the Mr. Whipple commercials, I do realize my name rhymes with nipple, and please, don't ever call it the Whipple and Nae Nae. I've been called by my last name more times than my first, partly because having a top ten name makes it difficult to differentiate the multiple Jessica's in each of my classes, and also because most people find my last name phonically pleasing. And so, I find my last name to be a bigger part of my identity than my first name. I have no clue of the etymology of my last name, but I can tell you that there was some guy a couple hundred years ago with the last name Whipple who signed the Declaration of Independence (I wonder if he had a nickname). It's never bothered me that my last name is the point of interest, or that...
