The Glass Menagerie was perhaps my favorite piece of literature read in class yet.
The characters are tragically realistic. All of them try to escape through something, Laura escapes into her tiny glass menagerie collection, while Amanda lives in the past, and Tom goes to the movies.
It is evident although Tom and Amanda fight, they truly love each other. I can relate to Tom that there comes a point to flee the nest. I liked when Tom said that people are trying to live their lives through movie stars in Hollywood.
Why not go out and experience it yourself? Why not you only live once , you might as well just go for it. Leave your family to fend for themselves, or else you will live with resentment. You will resent yourself and resent others.

I typed Rose Nerges into Google tonight and this is what came up: "Leave your family to fend for themselves, or else you will live with resentment. You will resent yourself and resent others."
