Quotes by Pierre Nora (?)

“Imagine a society entirely absorbed in its own historicity. It would be incapable of producing historians. Living entirely under the sign of the future, it would satisfy itself with automatic self-recording processes and auto-inventory machines, postponing indefinitely the task of understanding itself”
― Pierre Nora, Les Lieux De Mémoire
