Famous quotes containing the words writers and/or historians:

    “Already the writers are complaining that there is too much freedom. They need some pressure. The worse your daily life, the better your art. If you have to be careful because of oppression and censorship, this pressure produces diamonds.”
    —Tatyana Tolstaya (b. 1951)

    “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)
