Although rules of society have been changing since the Victorian era, one thing has still remained and that is praise that the common people have for the rich. Charlotte Bronte’s was able to give an accurate depiction of the rich getting all the respect, in her novel Jane Eyre. Jane Eyre who is a poor young girl is constantly treated like an animal just because she was not of status. In the very first chapter a couple of pages into the story, Jane and her cousin had an altercation. He was angry because she was reading one of the books in his house: “You have no business to take our books, you are dependant… you have not money; you father left you none; you ought to beg” (10). Simply because she did not have money that gave her cousin and society card blanch to make life’s a living hell. Also the maids at Mrs. Reed’s house praise her haughty children. Jane was much better than Mrs. Reed's kid. This shows that some people only praise people based on their money not their merits. In today’s society has an obsession with celebrities. Gossip magazines and television show are cashing with public’s fascination with rich celebrities. Just like today people in the Victorian era the rich were praised and loved for doing absolutely nothing.

What is it wroth of conquering the world if you have no one to share it with? Well the answer is plain and simple, nothing. You may have all the money, fame, and power in the world and feel incomplete. Because it is not wroth anything unless you have someone to share it with. In both the movie Into the Wild and the book Frankenstein the audience is presented with two characters grappling with their restlessness. The men’s solution to their problem was to give up on society and submerge themselves in what they think will satisfy their hunger. Christopher McCandless became fed up with society and sought a metaphysical connect with nature. This was an important experience for him because it changed his life but also robbed him of his happiness. Taking time to find yourself is one of the best things that a person can for themselves. Nonetheless they have to be careful not to lose yourself in the process. Chris lost himself and ultimately ended up unhappy. In the first clip when he was in the ocean and he felt powerful, the moment was magical because it was being shared with someone else: “Happiness is only really when it is shared”. In the last scene of the movie was not a heartbreaking because he was dying but because he was alone. Christopher seemed to not have learned one of the most overused phrases of all time; it is not the destination that matters but the journey. He was so convinced that his happiness was in Alaska that he overlooked what brought really joy. It was his journey and the great people he met that brought him happiness not Alaska.
Victor Frankenstein was making the same mistake as Christopher McCandless. Victor feed his restlessness with knowledge. It was like he always had to be obsessing about something. It started with philosophy and natural law and went on to science and his monster. He was absolutely miserable locking yourself up in the hope to accomplish the greatest deed is dangerous because unfortunately we need other to be happy. People can reach a level of happiness on our own but no one will be completely happy with having at least someone around to share it with.
