Isolation
"The higher we rise; the more isolated we become and all elevations are cold." - Boufflers
Unknown
"Who builds of stone a shrine to bear his name, shall be forgotten when months and years have flown. Who writes his name upon the scroll of fame, the centuries shall find to men unknown." - T.C. Clark
An Interpretation
"An interpretation is an argument about a story's meaning as we understand it. Its our way of stating and supporting, with arguments based on analysis, what the story means, what it says or suggests, rather than how it affects us. Interpretation involves four related intellectual acts: observing, connecting, inferring and concluding." - Di Yanni
Relics
"To be fossilized is to be stagnant, unprogressive and frozen into a solid. It is only the liquid currents of thought that move men and the world." - W. Phillips
History
"History is the witness of the times, the torch of truth, the life of memory, the teacher of life, the messenger of antiquity." - Cicero
