Though I did not quote many sources of research directly there was a lot of time spent reading others writings. I am not so foolish as to think that I have nothing to learn from others. All of our lives were built upon the foundation laid for us by those who were here before us. It is from the mixing of our insights, another’s insights, and the experiences of life that we come to understand the universe we live in better.
Below is a list of the information I studied in order to gain an understanding of the topics in this essay. Without the hard work of others and the Wisdom which help guide mine, my task would not have been so easy. Below each figure’s name is listed the sources which defined their stories and histories.
