I'm a historian in my own mind.

I am a historian. I do a lot of research, and I try to get it right.

I feel like I've always been a full-time historian, but nobody knows it.

I am a historian. With the exception of being a wife and mother, it is who I am. And there is nothing I take more seriously.

Leave history to historians.

I've always been intrigued by the way history works, the way we decide what is mentioned.

I am no historian but have tried to stick tight to the facts.

History seems to be so clumsy.

When you tell people you're in history, they give you this pained expression because that was the course they hated in high school. But history can be exciting, intellectually rigorous, and fun.
