The word "other" in works of art

All around, deep shadows, as if the world is becoming dark, the sun is fading away. Everything changes, is fleeting. But when we hold each other hand in hand, in tight embrace, even death doesn't matter. We can hold on to happiness, to love, to each other. We can hold on to life itself.

The Road / Vasily Grossman

Above all, don't lie to yourself. The man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point that he cannot distinguish the truth within him, or around him, and so loses all respect for himself and for others.

The Brothers Karamazov / Fyodor Dostoevsky

I keep thinking about this river somewhere, with the water moving really fast. And these two people in the water, trying to hold onto each other, holding on as hard as they can, but in the end it's just too much. The current's too strong. They've got to let go, drift apart.

Every man, according to an ancient legend, is born into the world with two bags suspended from his neck - a small bag in front full of his neighbors' faults, and a large bag behind filled with his own faults. Hence it is that men are quick to see the faults of others, and yet are often blind to their own failings.

The Queen of Spades / Alexander Pushkin

You're traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's the signpost up ahead - your next stop, the Twilight Zone!

The Twilight Zone / Rod Serling

The scene is memory and is therefore non-realistic. Memory takes a lot of poetic license. It omits some details; others are exaggerated, according to the emotional value of the articles it touches, for memory is seated predominantly in the heart.

The Glass Menagerie / Tennessee Williams

To love another person is to see the face of God.

Les Miserables / Victor Hugo

I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.

They are important in English because they help us indicate time, location, and direction. For example, you would say "I'm at the store" to indicate your location, and "I'm going to the store" to indicate direction. Prepositions can be tricky because they can have multiple meanings and uses, but practicing with them will make them easier to understand.
