The historian's first duty is to tell the truth as he sees it, regardless of whom it pleases or displeases.
历史学家的首要职责是如实讲述他所见的真相,无论这会取悦还是触怒何人。
在解释行为时,意志的概念是不必要的。
过去不是我们抛在身后的东西;它是我们内心携带的东西,塑造着我们的现在和未来。
Don't let your past dictate who you are, but let it be part of who you become.
故事的真谛不在于它的情节,而在于它唤起的情感和揭示的真相。
