I have not much interest in anyone's personal history after the tenth year, not even my own. Whatever one was going to be was all prepared before that.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't have a strong interest in history.
My past seems to be way more fascinating for people than my future, which bums me out.
We are anxious in the face of our unchangeable past; we long to recreate segments of our private histories, but we are stuck with them.
I had no interest in history classes. In fact, I used to sleep in history classes, I used to bunk classes. But that is how students are supposed to be, no? I developed an interest in history much later. I have made a few films based on historical facts.
By the age of nine or ten, I knew that I loved history and writing. It got hold of me and never turned loose.
I don't have a big thing about leaving my mark or being historic.
I like reading about the past. I'm definitely not a history buff, but I do read a bit of history now and again, and to do that for work is really exciting.
History will find some of you but not all of you. Because you can't know which of you will make history, you must do your best to be ready.
So history is fertile territory for me and I think I could feel happy with any period of history, provided I had the right sources and the necessary time for the initial research.
The only thing that interests me is history - reviewing the past and making something out of it.
