cuckoos nest
The "system" is something that people are always out to change. You see people trying to change it all the time, but few are actually successful at changing the system. The system can be a variety of things. In some cases it is the government, it can be the a boss or basically anything or anyone that has some type of control or authority. For some people fighting the system is their livelihood, their mission in life. They try to change the system because of the corruption, because of unjust actions, because they were a victim of it or to seek the truth. In the novels One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest by Ken Kesey and Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, the main characters are out to change the system. Based on the novel by Ken Kesey, it seems that his perspective on this issue is that the system is in dire need of change. Even if you are not successful in changing the system, it is still very effective that you tried and you set an example for others to follow. Kesey also seems to believe that persistence is key when fighting the system. Kesey believes that even if you change a small aspect of the system it was well worth the fight.

269) Ray Bradbury has some similar views to Kesey. McMurphy is outgoing, a leader and a rebel. There was a constant power struggle in the novel between the patient's new found savior McMurphy, and the evil Nurse Ratched who rules their wing of the hospital with an iron fist. He fights against the government in the future where the firemen burn books that are forbidden by the totalitarian brave new world regime. I too believe that persistence is key to changing the system. Like McMurphy, Guy believed that the system could be changed. As I look back at the times of which these novels were written I can see why the authors also wanted to fight to change the system. But I told him I had received previous complaints from some of the younger men that the radio is already do loud it hinders conversations and reading. 99) This is one of many battles between McMurphy and the system. He also uses violence to attempt to change the system. She couldn't rule with her old power any more. In the end McMurphy loses his life in the fight to change the system, but he left a substantial impact on the hospital and the policies of Nurse Ratched. This one he happened to win, but in real life many fights against the system are lost.
