The true historian, therefore, seeking to compose a true picture of the thing acted, must collect facts and combine facts. Methods will differ, styles will differ.

And to do nothing allows them to continue to grow at their natural pace, inexoribly, till this love becomes a wide and silent adoration. Ben Okri
