History is so subjective. The teller of it determines it.

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

Those who invoke history will certainly be heard by history. And they will have to accept its verdict.

History will point out some of the things I did wrong and some of the things I did right.

We must admit that history is enjoyable to a large extent because it enables us to pass judgement on the past.

Good history is a question of survival. Without any past, we will deprive ourselves of the defining impression of our being.

When you're part of history, you don't know it. You're just sort of living your life.

What we normally define as history doesn't interest me. It's a constraint.
