Pythagoras
My name is Pythagoras of Samos. I believe I should win the fabulous two-week cruise on the incomparable Argo because I dedicated my life to educating and caring for the future generations. I risked my life to share my knowledge with anyone who wanted to learn. I was born on the island of Samos, but lived most of my life in Crotona, Italy. When I was a young man, I traveled to many different places to observe the different lifestyles and cultures. Some of the countries I visited were India, Egypt, and Persia (Bulfinch). After viewing many different aspects of life I developed my philosophies and beliefs. My most important philosophy is that almost everything in life can be associated in some way with numbers .

Apollo has many great characteristics and I think we could be good friends if we talked with each other. The prime minister felt that fighting and war was not the acceptable solution . I created a school called the Pythagorean brotherhood. I think that Prime Minister Simitis is a great man for trying to help out. He is also a very thoughtful and kindhearted god. Without peace there would be complete chaos. The main reason I want to meet him is that he owns an oracle that can tell the future and even though I have clairvoyant powers at this moment, I want to ask him if he will let me borrow his oracle just in case if I lose my powers (Ellen Switzer 26).
