—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“The history of every country begins in the heart of a man or a woman.”
—Willa Cather (1876–1947)
“I cannot be much pleased without an appearance of truth; at least of possibility—I wish the history to be natural though the sentiments are refined; and the characters to be probable, though their behaviour is excelling.”
—Frances Burney (1752–1840)
