- Harry S. Truman on History
- Minimalism seems closest to the sophisticated storytelling of movies. Movies have really educated contemporary audiences to be the most intelligent, sophisticated audiences in history.

- Chuck Palahniuk on History
- More people have more access to more readers for less money than ever before in history.
