.... high school classified young Hitler as "notorious, cantankerous, willful, arrogant, and irascible. He has an obvious difficulty in fitting in at school." He did well enough to get by in some of his courses but had no time for subjects that did not interest him. Years later, his former school mates would remember how Adolf would taunt his teachers and draw sketches of them in his school notebooks. Forty years later, in the sessions at his headquarters which produced the record of his table talk, Hitler recalled several times the teachers of his school days with contempt. "They had no sym .....

.... temples and other architecture, made to honor the gods and beautify the polis (city-state). Their famous architectural styles were the heavy Doric columns and the slender scrolled Ionian columns. The Parthenon, the Greek temple for the goddess Athena, is a impeccable example of symmetry and proportion. The sides of the Parthenon give an optical illusion of perfect balance on all sides. Their desire for balance in art and architecture represents the balance of the world; order and moderation are expressed in the simplicity of lines and shapes. Sophists, who believed that the views of society .....

.... make a living. Although geography did greatly affect the lives of those who settled in New England, there was a lot more that made their colonies different from others.

.... The only way they could join one of the tribes was to marry an Indian. A few people did that but a lot of people asked the government to take it away from the Indians. The government, after a few years decided to change the treaty and breakup the Indians. That was a major broken promise to the Indians. This state was formed by discouraged and displaced people. When the Government freed blacks from slavery, very few blacks knew how to read and write. The ones that knew how, found jobs, but that left around one million black people homeless.

.... well, it took four hundred years for two robbers to figure out how to get in. The pyramids were built by free citizens, drafted for public work, not by slaves of any sort. The pyramids were built by four thousand expert stone sculptors all year round. An extra work group of about ninety-five thousand men worked on the pyramids during the four month period of the inundation (the time of enforced idleness for farmers, since the field were covered with the Nile water flood ). The pyramids were built between the year 1600 B.C. and the year 2700. Many scholars believe that the reason why the py .....
