History is not the story of strangers, aliens from another realm; it is the story of us had we been born a little earlier.

We will say, 'We used methods that can stand the harsh scrutiny of history.'

You can give words, but you can't take them. And when words are given, that is when they are shared. We remember what that was like. Words so real they were almost tangible.

The second is: don't over-estimate your own merits. The third is: don't expect others to take as much interest in you as you do yourself. And the fourth is: don't imagine that most people give enough thought to you to have any special desire to persecute you.
