Quiz 3-5-15

1.) Motivation- the willingness of attempting something without direction from others.
2.) Extrinsic and Intrinsic differ from a point of view such as internal and external. Intrinsic is more powerful and can do more damage because your own mind can make you do things you don't want to do, if you allow it to.
3.) A person's interest  and a person's position in a conflict can make the argument either exciting and interesting or boring and pointless. A position can mean knowing statistics such as which is bigger, stronger, or even better.

MUSIC AS LITERATURE

Can music relate to literature? In my personal opinion, yes i do believe that music can be considered to be literature, depending on the characteristics of the song. The reason why i say that is because anyone can make a song that has no true meaning to it and has no point, but some artists bring poetry with music and make meaningful music. Literature can be defined by writing forms of expressions and connecting them with ideas and interests. Novels, poems, songs, operas, symphony's  can all relate in some ways but one difference that they all posses is the way that they are put together. The form that they are put into can change the feeling of what the creator is trying to say.
