Ramses mortuary temple is carved into the stone and is on one level contrary to Hatshepsut?s temple. There are four enormous carvings of an idealized Ramses, common to the time of the Old Kingdom pharaohs. These statues, made large enough to make the viewer feel humble in comparison, portray the power and significance of Ramses. A carving of Ra, situated above the entrance to the temple, depicts Ramses as god-like. The inside entrance is lined with smaller statues of Ramses wife, Nefertari, and other members of his family. The architect also added in another feature to the temple to put even greater significance on Ramses power.

"Letter from a Birmingham Jail [King, Jr.]" 16 April 1963 My Dear Fellow Clergymen: While confined here in the Birmingham city jail, I came across your recent statement calling my present activities "unwise and untimely." Seldom do I pause to answer criticism of my work and ideas. If I sought to answer all the criticisms that cross my desk, my secretaries would have little time for anything other than such correspondence in the course of the day, and I would have no time for constructive work. But since I feel that you are men of genuine good will and that your criticisms are sincerely set forth, I want to try to answer your statement in what I hope will be patient and reasonable terms.
