    Thomas Jefferson

    Reasons - Declaration of Independence, Louisiana purchase and father of the modern school system in the USA. He believed that every person has a right to an education. There are lots of other reasons, those are just a few.

    Florence Nightingale. She came to be known as "The Lady with the Lamp".

    The phrase (The Lady with the Lamp) was further popularised by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's 1857 poem "Santa Filomena":

    Lo! in that hour of misery
    A lady with a lamp I see
    Pass through the glimmering gloom,
    And flit from room to room.

    I admire King Nebuchadnezzar not in his character but on how he built the hanging garden for his wife. It became one of the seven wonders of the world.
