Quote of the Month

“Biography, then, is a handshake across time, across disciplines, across genders, across whole ways of life. It is an act of friendship. It is a way of keeping the biographer’s notebook open on both sides of that endless question about the mysteriousness of life. What was this human life really like, and what does it mean to us now? In this sense, biography is not merely a mode of historical inquiry. It is an act of imaginative faith.” Biographer, Richard Holmes.
