Famous quotes containing the words writers and/or historians:

    “Hemingway is great in that alone of living writers he has saturated his work with the memory of physical pleasure, with sunshine and salt water, with food, wine and making love and the remorse which is the shadow of that sun.”
    —Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    “Nations without a past are contradictions in terms. What makes a nation is the past, what justifies one nation against others is the past, and historians are the people who produce it.”
    —Eric J. Hobsbawm (b. 1917)
