The amazing thing since so many variables enter into historical judgments, is not that historians disagree but that they agree as often as they do (Historians Quotes)
How something important happens is the business of historians and newspapers, the effect it has is the business of philosophers and writers and especially poets (Historians Quotes)
Do you really believe... that everything historians tell us about men – or about women – is actually true? You ought to consider the fact that these histories have been written by men, who never tell the truth except by accident (Historians Quotes)
