- ... get admission and in the next year, 1907, he tried again and was very sure of success. To his surprise he faileor to all and was destined to rule the world. The paper blamed Communists and Jews for all their problems and Hitler agreed with those views. Hitler agreed with most of the points made in the news paper. He continued ... to move to Munich. Still living in Vienna and being Austrian by birth, Hitler showed more loyalty to Germany. He thought that the Aryan race was destined to rule the world.

- 616: The Analysis Of The Blue Marbl
- ... as a species, have been able to tame fire, learn to hunt, survive in extreme conditions, and use our resources to their fullest potential. But do we overuse our resources? I strongly believe that we, as a population, do overuse our resources. This is an issue, which we must now face as we head into the next millenium, for it is ... the planet to listen. Listen to the sounds of a planet that is overburdened, overused, and overheated. One can only wonder how much more our great Blue Marble can take. I don t believe that it can endure much more. One cannot deny the fact that more and more people are inhabiting the Earth every year. This is indisputable. However, the ... the answer will not lie on Earth. Man will have to look elsewhere, and perhaps technology will benefit mankind when the time comes, but that is yet to be seen. I m not totally against technology; it has a great deal of benefits.

- 619: Remains Of The Day
- Kazuo Ishiguro’s Remains of the Day gives an eloquent treatment of the issue of how a stoic English butler’s unemotional reaction to the emotional world around him is damaging and painful, and how he resolves to make the best of the "remains of the day"—the remainder of his life. Ishiguro explores some of the ... repression of personal opinion—and the no-holds-barred American culture of free expression of opinion and emotion. The American culture’s spread into England is hastened with the two world wars, and it ends Stevens’ old way of work, if not the job itself. Although Remains of the Day concentrates on a particular culture, and an obsolescent one at that, Ishiguro makes many insightful observations on human behavior in general. I will explore a few of these observations here, and attempt to show that Ishiguro’s work possesses meaning far beyond an examination of one emotionally-repressed servant. Ishiguro illustrates ...

Perhaps if Hitler had been allowed to become an artist or painter there would have been no war, no holocaust, no 52 million dead people.
