AQQ for Today, for Tomorrow, and for ever . . . .
History is not based on facts. A fact is something that is produced by historical research, not something the historian finds ready-made. Jacques Barzun, one of the great minds of the past century recognized this when he wrote:
"Nothing flatter than a fact, a lonely, unbefriended fact, rising out of a warehouse mind."
Jacques Barzun, God's Country and Mine: A Declaration of Love Spiced with a Few Harsh Words. (1954; New York: Vintage, 1959), p. 148.
