So numerous indeed and so powerful are the causes which serve to give a false bias to the judgment, that we, upon many occasions, see wise and good men on the wrong as well as on the right side of questions of the first magnitude to society. This circumstance, il duly attended to, would furnish a lesson of
moderation to those who are ever so much persuaded of their being in the right in any controversy. And a further reason for caution, in this respect, might be
drawn from the reflection that we are not always sure that those who advocate the truth are influenced by purer principles than their antagonists. Ambition,
avarice, personal animosity, party opposition, and many other motives not more laudable than these are apt to operate as well upon those who support as
those who oppose the right side of a question. Were there not even these inducements to moderation, nothing could be more ill-judged than that intolerant
spirit which has, at all times, characterized political parties.

O People are rarely honest about their true feelings when they speak.

O People generally support all causes for the exact same reasons.

Read the quotation from "an occurrence at owl creek bridge." and now he became conscious of a new disturbance. striking through the thought of his dear ones was a sound which he could neither ignore nor understand, a sharp, distinct, metallic percussion like the stroke of a blacksmithâ€™s hammer upon the anvil; it had the same ringing quality. he wondered what it was, and whether immeasurably distant or near byâ€”it seemed both. its recurrence was regular, but as slow as the tolling of a death knell. he awaited each stroke with impatience andâ€”he knew not whyâ€”apprehension. the intervals of silence grew progressively longer, the delays became maddening. with their greater infrequency the sounds increased in strength and sharpness. they hurt his ear like the thrust of a knife; he feared he would shriek. what he heard was the ticking of his watch. which best describes the effect of the narration in the excerpt? it suggests that the man being executed feels tranquil and at peace. it suggests that the narrator is sympathetic to the man being executed. it suggests that the plot will become less tense as the story continues. it suggests that the story will become more intense and mysterious.
