Describe, in your own words, the impact of size in the story. Your answer should be at least one hundred words. The story is: Voltaire’s Micromegas.

Voltaire tells the story of a giant named Micromegas, that comes from the far planet. While Micromegas is traveling with his friend he ends up on Earth.

As he is a giant he can't realize that on Earth there are tiny people living. He thinks that people, so small and invisible can’t be intelligent, but he gets surprised by people’s importance.

Explanation:

The main story is that the size is very relative and that one shouldn’t be evaluated regarding his size. There is no place for arrogance, as it does not allow a person to see further than just the superficial.

Even though we think that we are big and great, there is always someone greater, who can teach us a lesson.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
