3.“It is wonderful, the power of a faith like that, that can make multitudes upon multitudes of the old and weak and the young and frail enter without hesitation or complaint upon such incredible journeys and endure the resultant miseries without repining. It is done in love, or it is done in fear; I do not know which it is. No matter what the impulse is, the act born of it is beyond imagination, marvellous to our kind of people, the cold whites.” - X

6.As a child, X never knew who his father was. He reasoned that he never missed having a father as he never had anything to miss, and it allowed him to imagine that his father could be anyone he wished. He was looked after by a nanny who spent most of her time watching daytime television. ‘One Life to Live’ was the inspiration to write his first novel. He was further inspired to become a writer when a man handed him a copy of Ian Fleming’s ‘Casino Royale’ at the New York Public Library when he was ten years old. He also claims to have been kicked out of all of New York’s finer academic institutions at least once,and to have picked up speed reading while spending his days as a child in the New York Public Library.Who am I talking about?

7.IMDB Description

This is 75 minutes and 6 seconds of pure blue screen. Nothing less and nothing more. Abstract film by Nigel Tomm demolishes the boundaries of new absurdism. In 1951, a novel X was published. In 2008, a film X directed by Nigel Tomm was filmed. Intelligent. Eccentric and subversive. X by Nigel Tomm preserves and destroys, it lifts and anchors, it aids and hinders, it's convenient and frustrating. It has two sides. The most extravagant depths of your wildest imagination are packed in 75 minutes and 6 seconds of pure blue screen. Breathtaking.

Give X.

9. William Chester Minor (June 1834 – March 26, 1920) was an American army surgeon and one of the largest contributors of quotations to the X . He was held in a lunatic asylum for murder at the time.

Minor's condition deteriorated and in 1902, due to delusions that he was being abducted nightly from his rooms and conveyed to places as far away as Istanbul, and forced to commit sexual assaults on children, he cut off his own penis (autopeotomy) using a knife he had employed in his work on the X. His health continued to worsen, and after Murray campaigned on his behalf, Minor was released in 1910 on the orders of Home Secretary Winston Churchill.

11.Thanks to Lin-Manuel Miranda's Broadway musical "X," the feud between X and Aaron Burr is probably one of the most famous in the world. Both X and Burr were Fathers of the American Revolution, but weren't big fans of one another. X had played a huge role in Burr's loss in the presidential election of 1801, and once Burr caught wind that X was also influencing his race for governor of New York, he challenged X to a duel. X responded by putting out a smear campaign against Burr, and things between the two only got worse. They finally met for their fated duel on July 11, 1804, and X was shot and killed as a result.

When the Republic of Florence divided over the rule of Pope Boniface VIII, local politician X traveled to Rome to preach about how awful the Pope was. The Pope responded by inviting X to stay as his personal guest at the Vatican, and while X was there, he had a militia overthrow and execute members of the government who didn't agree with his rule. Essentially, the Pope murdered all of X's friends, who also believed the Pope was terrible. Additionally, the Pope fined X for being in Rome and declared he was never allowed to return from the city again.

In response (and to the dismay of many 10th grade students) X wrote the Y, where he reserved a space in hell for Pope Boniface VIII.

14. Ilona Marita Lorenz was a German-American who had an affair with X and was later recruited by the CIA to kill him. They gave her poison pills to put in her ex-lover's food. Supposedly, he found out about the plot and pulled out a gun. X put it in Lorenz's hand and closed his eyes, but Lorenz lost her nerve because they still loved each other. PS: Awww…!PPS: Lorenz will soon be played by Jennifer Lawrence in a film about the affair.Finally realizing that it wasn't quite morally proper for United States intelligence officers to sit around brainstorming unique killing methods, President Gerald Ford put his foot down. In 1976, Ford issued Executive Order 11905, which ordered that "no employee of the United States Government shall engage in, or conspire to engage in, political assassination."
