“HISTORY, n. An account mostly false, of events mostly unimportant, which are brought about by rulers mostly knaves, and soldiers mostly fools.” Ambrose Bierce, The Devil's Dictionary
“Real evidence is usually vague and unsatisfactory. It has to be examined — sifted. But here the whole thing is cut and dried. No, my friend, this evidence has been very cleverly manufactured — so cleverly that it has defeated its own ends.” Agatha Christie, The Mysterious Affair at Styles
