In The Devil in the White City by Erik Larson, Larson uses two quotes at the beginning of the book to describe the two main characters. The first quote, said by David Burnham “Make no little plans, they have no magic to stir men’s blood.” Helps to describe his ambition and creativity.

This also shows that if Burnham was going to be constructing the Worlds Fair, it had to be large scale and amazing for anyone to want to see it.

I was amazed he never quit with all the mishaps that happened with the marble and just after working on it for so long that that was all he did eat sleep and breath the dome.

No one is allowed outside after 7pm because we still don't have any power. It could take up to a full week or longer before power is fully restored. Monday, September 1, 2012, the power was finally restored on the base and to most of the town. With the power restored people started cleaning up after this Hurricane that sat on us for two very long days. I personally only had to clean an oven and a freezer, and to pick up some debris that blew into my backyard.
Me and my son, who was 12 years old worked on the rice paddies, growing rice. I was the only member of my family who used earn money along with my son.
