Meaning

     We now live in a world where information is
     potentially unlimited. Information is cheap, 
     but meaning is expensive. 
     Where is the meaning? 
     Only human beings can tell you where it is. 
     We’re extracting meaning from our minds and 
     our own lives.

        George Dyson

History

     History is that certainty produced at the point where the

     imperfections of memory meet the inadequacies of

     documentation.  ...  It's more the memories of the

     survivors, most of whom are neither victorious nor

     defeated. 

       Julian Barnes, The Sense of an Ending
