"Let's say that history is what happened. The record of what happened is how each individual happens to see those events. They've already been ï¬ltered. When the historian or biographer takes over, history is no longer exactly what happened, because there has been a process of selection going on; it's impossible to write about anyone, any event, in any period of time, without in some way imposing, even unconsciously, your own standards, your own values."

-- Russell Freedman
