The Sides of History
During part of 1941 and 1942, when the Luftwaffe was busy in Russia, the German radio regaled its home audiences with stories of devastating air raids on London. Now, we are aware that those raids did not happen. But what use would our knowledge be if the Germans conquered Britain? For the purposes of a future historian, did those raids happen, or didn’t they? The answer is: If Hitler survives, they happened, and if he falls, they didn’t happen. So with innumerable other events of the past ten or twenty years. Is the Protocols of the Elders of Zion a genuine document? Did Trotsky plot with the Nazis? How many German aeroplanes were shot down in the Battle of Britain? Does Europe welcome the New Order? In no case do you get one answer which is universally accepted because it is true: in each case you get a number of totally incompatible answers, one of which is finally adopted as the result of a physical struggle.

Everything I Didn't Say to Ben Shapiro
An old joke involves photographing two books together: “Everything They Teach You At Harvard Law School,” alongside “Everything They Don’t Teach You At Harvard Law School.” The absurd implication of the infinite wealth of knowledge that ought be contained in these 600 pages or so is an indictment of that thing which publishers love:
