“HISTORY is one of the most "fantastic" yet underrated of the scholarly pursuits. It is a tale of sword and sorcery, conquest and subjugation, and the rise and fall of empires. It is the drama to which the modern world looks back, full of political intrigue and profound philosophical insights. It is a timeline of valleys that peak from tremendous invention and expansion and quickly plummets to disease and death. It is the explanation of the present world, revealing why we speak what we speak and act the way we act... and why our nations have borders. It reveals the secrets to success and also tells us why we should never do something ever again.”

“I read history books and the classics so as to avoid idle living. I constantly remind myself that the world is so vast and state affairs so important that I cannot succumb to laziness and complacency for even a moment. Once one has succumbed to laziness and complacency, everything will become stagnant.”
