There's No Such Thing As A Foreseeable

Read. Read. Read. Read. Read Great Books. Read Poetry, History, Biography. Read The Novels That Have Stood The Test Of Time. And Read Closely.

To Write Is To Think, And To Write Well Is To Think Well.

I Work Very Hard On The Writing, Writing And Rewriting And Trying To Weed Out The Lumber.

History Is About Life. It's Awful When The Life Is Squeezed Out Of It And There's No Flavor Left, No Uncertainties, No Horsing Around. It Always Disturbed Me How Many Biographers Never Gave Their Subjects A Chance To Eat. You Can Tell A Lot About People By How They Eat, What They Eat, And What Kind Of Table Manners They Have.

The Past After All Is Only Another Name For Someone Else's Present.
