Character Analysis-"Nurse Ratched"
             1. She came to life for me when McMurphy came to the hospital. She could automatically see what kind of trouble McMurphy was going to be for her.

             11. Like I said earlier, McMurphy brings out her qualities to a 10. Everybody else, so to speak puts up with her, he doesn't. It's a challenge for McMurphy.
             12. She rises far above stereotypical qualities for women. She takes nothing from men. She is definitely pro women.
