Biography is the only gezegde

 Biography is the only true history
  Thomas Carlyle

 People think that because a novel's invented, it isn't true. Exactly the reverse is the case. Biography and memoirs can never be wholly true, since they cannot include every conceivable circumstance of what happened. The novel can do that.
  Anthony Powell

 There is properly no history; only biography

 There is properly no history; only biography
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 Whenever the poetry of myth is interpreted as biography, history, or science, it is killed. The living images become only remote facts of a distant time or place. Furthermore, it is never difficult to demonstrate that as science and history, mythology is absurd.
  Joseph Campbell

 Read no history: nothing but biography, for that is life without theory.
  Benjamin Disraeli

 Biography tends to tilt history, because every person you are writing about becomes larger than life.

 It is long ere we discover how rich we are. Our history, we are sure, is quite tame: we have nothing to write, nothing to infer. But our wiser years still run back to the despised recollections of childhood, and always we are fishing up some wonderful article out of that pond; until, by and by, we begin to suspect that the biography of the one foolish person we know is, in reality, nothing less than the miniature paraphrase of the hundred volumes of the Universal History.
  Ralph Waldo Emerson

 We expected 'Living History' to be the best-selling biography of the summer and think the momentum will continue through the fall.

 Iacocca was the best-selling business biography in history. Before that we had Peter Drucker, the inventor of modern management.

 Biography is a very definite region bounded on the north by history, on the south by fiction, on the east by obituary, and on the west by tedium.

 The secret of biography resides in finding the link between talent and achievement. A biography seems irrelevant if it doesn't discover the overlap between what the individual did and the life that made this possible. Without discovering that, you have shapeless happenings and gossip.

 Of all the species of literary composition, perhaps biography is the most delightful. The attention concentrated on one individual gives a unity to the materials of which it is composed, which is wanting in general history.

 A new biography of Madonna came out last week, and apparently the biography lists all the men she's slept with. The book is apparently called the Manhattan Telephone Directory.
  Bill Maher

 No great man lives in vain. The history of the world is but the biography of great men.
  Thomas Carlyle
