He went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life. While living in the woods, Thoreau desired to simplify his life.

ankoles [38]

<em>Which concept does Roosevelt most likely intend to convey in this sentence?  </em>

<em>The answer is, Optimism is important to success.</em>

<em>When Roosevelt reinforces the fact that this nation will endure as it has endured, he does it to tell his people that no matter how it looks today our nation will prosper, no matter how bad it appears to be, this nation has always stood up. American Manifest Destiny, though it refers to expanding his lands by providential order, also gives Americans a providential pull, a lift up, that always takes them forward. Roosevelt is aware of this, but his people has forgotten it, and he reinforces this truth to lift up the moral of the American people.</em>

How does Saki develop the central idea of friendship and revenge?
Deffense [45]

The feud between the families of the von Gradwitzes and Znaeyms began with a lawsuit in the days of the grandfathers of Ulrich and Georg, but the animosity and ill will between the two young men is exacerbated by Ulrich von Gradwitz's strong hatred for Georg Znaeym. It is only an act of Nature that brings them together.

Because of this ill will, Ulrich goes into the forest where there is "a disturbing element," and he comes face-to-face with his enemy. A force of nature brings a huge beech tree's limbs down upon them, leaving the two men pinioned beneath it. At first, they curse each other and boast that each one's men will arrive before the other's and revenge will be served. As they wait to be rescued and their discomfort increases, Ulrich reconsiders his feelings. The wine in his flask is warming, so he offers it in a gesture of friendship to the other man, Georg Znaeym: "Let us drink, even if tonight one of us dies." At first, Georg rejects this offer from an enemy." As they lie in pain, though, the two men reconsider what is important in life. Ulrich says to Georg,

I've come to think we've been rather fools; there are better things in life than getting the better of a boundary dispute. Neighbor, if you will help me to bury the old quarrel, I—I will ask you to be my friend.

After some thought, Georg speaks in reconciliation,

What peace there would be among the forester folk if we ended our feud tonight. . . Ulrich von Gradwitz, I will be your friend.

Then, in a gesture of true friendship, each man offers to have his men help the other if they arrive first.

Answer:

Einstein was a dedicated scientist. He worked hard, focused on details, and did not give up until he had formed a theory that worked. His ideas were bizarre, but they helped scientists make many discoveries.
