    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “Man watches his history on the screen with apathy and an occasional passing flicker of horror or indignation.”
    —Conor Cruise O’Brien (b. 1917)

    “History is not what you thought. It is what you can remember. All other history defeats itself.
    In Beverly Hills ... they don’t throw their garbage away. They make it into television shows.
    Idealism is the despot of thought, just as politics is the despot of will.”
