It was not their fault that I put the coin on the track and because of me, I possibly killed or hurt many people. In this example, I have caused some minor obstacles for myself, but have caused monumental obstacles for the people riding the train and also their family and relatives. Arthur Miller illustrates this interpretation of the quotation in All My Sons. In this pla!

The quotation “We are the cause of our own obstacles,” by Meister Eckhart is very representative of how life is. If I decide to put a coin on a railroad track, when the train comes it will derail. Arthur Miller illustrates this interpretation of the quotation in All My Sons. In this example, I have caused some minor obstacles for myself, but have caused monumental obstacles for the people riding the train and also their family and relatives. When Joe says, “ If Larry was alive he wouldn’t act like this. But I think to him they were all my sons. ” This is ironic because Larry doesn’t understand Joe’s actions. He finally realizes that there is!

more in life than family and money. This work installs the view that one’s actions influence more than one person and that one’s responsibility to society requires that person to think unselfishly to avoid affecting others in a bad way. He finally realizes that there is!

more in life than family and money. The planes crash and kill twenty-one men.
