Nero
- What I love about Nero was that even though he was young and most likely was not respected because of his age, he still kept his confidence because he knew he was good at what he did. Based on the text it says that “he prided himself on his talents as an actor, poet, painter, musician, and architect (Ingersoll, 170).
- He took the modest Palatine hill structures and created something absolutely amazing with his talent.
