Famous quotes containing the words writers and/or historians:

    They’re fancy talkers about themselves, writers. If I had to give young writers advice, I would say don’t listen to writers talking about writing or themselves.
    Lillian Hellman (1905–1984)

    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)
