Margaret Atwood

As all historians know, the past is a great darkness, and filled with echoes. Voices may reach us from it; but what they say to us is imbued with the obscurity of the matrix out of which they come; and try as we may, we cannot always decipher them precisely in the clearer light of our day.

David McCullough

[While writing history], I’ve kept the most interesting company imaginable with people long gone. Some I’ve come to know better than many I know in real life, since in real life we don’t get to read other people’s mail.

Having sent gifts and messengers to the oracle at Delphi, the king of the Lydians sent this message: “[The king] asks you again now whether he shall march against the Persians, and if so, whether he shall join with himself any army of men as allies.” The oracle replied that, “if he should march against the Persians he should destroy a great empire.”Little did he know which empire he was to destroy. It was to be his own, of course, as Cyrus the Great was ascendant.Quotations from Herodotus’ Histories.
