Option/history

Famous quotes containing the words option and/or history:

“You don’t merely give over your creativity to making a film—you give over your life! In theatre, by contrast, you live these two rather strange lives simultaneously; you have no option but to confront the mould on last night’s washing-up.”
—Daniel Day Lewis (b. 1957)

“History is the present. That’s why every generation writes it anew. But what most people think of as history is its end product, myth.”
