Thoreau’s statement, “The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation,” is one of the most famous lines in American literature. What does he mean, and what does he think is the cause?

explanation:

hitler's  "rise" can be considered to have ended in march 1933, after the reichstag adopted the enabling act of 1933 in that month. president paul von hindenburg had already appointedhitler  as chancellor on 30 january 1933 after a series of parliamentary elections and associated backroom intrigues.

this is a good question! i'll do some research and come back when i have the answer!
