Historical Truth Quotes

• La historia tiene su verdad, y también la leyenda. La verdad legendaria es de otra naturaleza que la verdad histórica. La verdad legendaria es una invención cuyo resultado es la realidad. Además, la historia y la leyenda tienen el mismo objetivo: representar al hombre eterno por debajo del hombre momentáneo.

  Victor Hugo

• Afrontemos una verdad histórica: nunca hemos tenido un "mercado libre", siempre hemos tenido intervención gubernamental en la economía, y de hecho esa intervención ha sido bien recibida por los capitanes de las finanzas y la industria. No tenían nada en contra del "gran gobierno" cuando servía a sus necesidades.

• Mister Cameron - I have read the unexpurgated Ovid, the love poems of Sappho, the Decameron in the original, and a great many texts in Greek and Latin histories that were not though fit for proper gentlemen to read, much less proper ladies. I know in precise detail what Caligula did to, and with, his sisters, and I can quote it to you in Latin or in my own translation if you wish. I am interested in historical truth, and truth in history is often unpleasant and distasteful to those of fine sensibility. I frankly doubt that you will produce anything to shock me.
